Built to Wash the Largest Vehicles
The Nexus Crossfire XL features an impressive bridge clearance of 12 feet 9 inches, giving operators the flexibility to wash some of the largest vehicles commonly found in commercial and municipal fleets.
The XL is designed to wash vehicles up to and including:
- Mass transit vehicles
- Delivery vans
- Recreational vehicles (RVs)
- School buses
In addition to these larger vehicle types, the Nexus Crossfire XL is fully capable of washing the same passenger vehicles, pickup trucks, work trucks, cargo vans, motor homes and commercial vehicles handled by the other models in the Crossfire Family. This allows operators to serve virtually every customer who enters the wash bay without limiting service to only oversized vehicles.
For operators looking to expand into fleet, municipal or commercial markets while continuing to serve everyday drivers, the Crossfire XL offers exceptional flexibility and earning potential.
Maximum Cleaning Coverage for Maximum Results
Larger vehicles require greater cleaning coverage, and the Nexus Crossfire XL is engineered accordingly.
The XL features an expanded cleaning array that includes:
- 11 patented F5 orbital heads
- 4 pairs of Bug-a-Boos
- 2 F5 Unicorn heads
This enhanced configuration provides outstanding cleaning performance across taller, wider and longer vehicles while maintaining the precision and consistency the Crossfire Family is known for.
Patented F5 Orbital Technology
At the heart of every Nexus Crossfire XL is our patented F5 orbital technology.
Unlike traditional inverted “L” wand systems, the F5 orbital heads move in carefully engineered patterns that allow water and cleaning chemistry to reach complex contours, recessed areas and vehicle surfaces that conventional touchless systems often struggle to clean.
The result is superior cleaning around:
- Vehicle sides
- Roof transitions
- Mirrors
- Wheel openings
- Body contours
- Hard-to-reach recessed areas
This advanced cleaning technology helps provide a more complete wash while reducing missed areas.
Bug-a-Boo Technology
The Nexus Crossfire XL features four pairs of Bug-a-Boos, with two pairs positioned on each side of the machine.
These specialized cleaning heads are angled to aggressively clean difficult areas such as:
- Front bumpers
- Rear bumpers
- Vehicle grilles
- License plate recesses
Lower body panelsThis additional spray coverage is especially beneficial when cleaning larger commercial vehicles that present more surface area and more difficult cleaning angles.
Dual F5 Unicorn Heads
Mounted above the wash area, the two F5 Unicorn heads provide focused cleaning where larger vehicles need it most.
- They are specifically designed to clean:
- Front windshields
- Roof surfaces
- Upper vehicle panels
- Hard-to-reach areas on taller vehicles
This additional top-side coverage will make sure that even high-clearance vehicles receive a thorough and consistent clean from top to bottom.
Designed for Simplicity and Reliability
Even with its increased size and cleaning capacity, the Nexus Crossfire XL maintains the same maintenance-friendly design philosophy found throughout the Crossfire Family.
Features include:
- No swivels
- No grease points
- Elevated tracking system
- Static stainless steel tubing and compression fittings
By eliminating common maintenance items, operators spend less time performing service and more time keeping their wash operating efficiently.
Every design element is focused on reducing downtime while maximizing long-term reliability.
