Height decides the model
The two SUNRISE models share a 285 cm washing width and a 400 cm rail gauge. They differ in height. The W4000 washes to 420 cm and stands 510 cm tall. The W4700 washes to 470 cm and stands 560 cm tall.
For a coach operator, the tallest vehicle in the fleet settles the choice. A double-deck coach calls for the W4700, and the wash hall must give the machine its 560 cm of height.
Both machines measure 465 cm wide without their water shields. The shields add 14 cm on each side.

Brushes or Hydrowash for liveried coaches
The standard SUNRISE washes with brushes in PE plastic or soft brush material. Brushes ride on upright trolleys, with pressure control.
Hydrowash is the brushless option for liveried vehicles. High-pressure water robots work at 20 and 30 bar. The system senses the size of the vehicle, softens dirt with chemicals first, and reaches indented and protruding surfaces.

Programs and controls
SUNRISE carries automatic programs for each vehicle type, so a coach, a single-deck bus and a van each get their own cycle. A manual control option sits alongside them, and the menus are in Turkish and English.
Energy reaches the moving parts through a chain drive, which reduces the load on the gearbox and the motor. Optional accessories install inside the machine's own footprint, so a coach depot can add equipment without giving up space in the hall.
