The Primus FX105 is a high-spin commercial washing machine designed for busy sites that need dependable daily performance. It is available as a manual OPL machine or with coin-operated control, while Nayax cashless payment can be specified for contactless use.

Primus began manufacturing laundry equipment in Belgium in 1911 and became part of Alliance Laundry Systems in 2014. The FX range draws on that long industrial-laundry heritage, combining durable components with a soft-mount, freestanding format suited to demanding commercial use.

The anthracite-grey galvanised front and side panels give the machine a modern, understated appearance, while the stainless-steel top is fitted as standard. A large 410 mm door and practical handle make it easier to load and unload bulky linen.

A patented four-compartment soap box supports accurate use of powders and liquids. The FX105 is also ready for automatic chemical dosing, allowing an external system to dispense liquid detergents without repeated operator intervention.

Performance and control

Commercial technology that supports consistent results

The FX105 combines straightforward daily operation with upgrade paths for sites that need more advanced programming, traceability or specialist textile care.

XControl operation

Touch-button control is standard. A large LED-backlit LCD shows the remaining time, wash temperature and machine fault codes.

Advanced programming

Optional XControl Plus and Trace-Tech software add fully programmable cycles and USB connectivity.

Automatic dosing ready

Connect to an external dosing system for accurate, repeatable detergent and chemical delivery.

Efficient extraction

A listed 1165 rpm spin produces a 400 G-factor, designed to keep residual moisture below 50%.

Optiload and Cascade drum

Load sensing helps match water use to the wash load, while Cascade drum design assists washing and extraction.

Wet-cleaning capability

With suitable controls and software, FX machines can support SOFTWASH-XTREME CARE wet-cleaning processes.

Optional ozone integration

Extend the system with specialist disinfection

The Primus FX105 can be planned alongside a compatible ozone laundry system. The original supplier information cites systems such as Otex and iZone o3, which are designed to support low-temperature disinfection and reduced energy use. Any microbiological reduction claim belongs to the selected ozone system and must be verified against that system’s current technical evidence, commissioning and operating conditions.
