Gas Powered Pressure Washers
- Unlimited portability
- Higher performance for more industrial applications
- Excellent for cleaning outdoors
Electric Pressure Washers
- Unlimited power source
- Quiet, smooth running
- Excellent for indoor and outdoor cleaning
Axial Pump
- Low Cost
- Good performance for the dollar
Triplex Pump
Three plunger pump with many benefits
- Smooth flow with minimal pulsation
- Ability to obtain high pressures
- Long life
- Ideal for industrial applications
2SF, 4SF Pumps
These pumps have the same benefits as triplex pumps plus:
- Manufactured by Cat Pumps
- UNIFLOW design
- Reduced risk of pump cavitation
- Increased pump life
Uniflow Design
provides continuous flow forward through the pump resulting in increased suction capabilities
Cavitation
The shock of thousands of bubbles collapsing inside the pump quickly pitting metal surfaces and seals. Cavitation, also known as starving the pump, is caused by lack of water at the inlet of the pump
Duplex pump
- Less industrial pump
- Ideal for the home owner
Direct Drive
Pump is directly mounted to the engine or motor
- Eliminates extra cost of gearbox, pulleys, belts, etc.
Flexible Couplings
Pump is coupled to motor using couplings with a flexible rubber insert
- Absorbs shock transferred from motor to pump
Gear Box Drive
Pump is mounted to a gear box and then mounted to the motor
- Pump runs slower for longer life
|
Belt Drive
Pump is coupled to the engine with belts and pulleys. The benefits of a belt drive are:
- Absorbs shock transferred from engine to pump
- Pump runs slower for longer life
- Ideal for heavy industrial use
Unloader
- Relieves the pressure in the pump when the spray gun is not squeezed
Trapped Pressure Unloader
- Instantly provides maximum pressure
- Relieves pressure only at the pump head maintaining system line pressure
- Long life
Flow Sensitive Unloader
- Eliminates pressure in entire system ( pump, hose, gun etc. ) when gun is not squeezed
- Relieved pressure in hose means it will be less rigid when operating the machine
- Gradually builds up pressure when gun is squeezed
- Eliminates pressure spikes during bypass mode
- Easier to operate in awkward working conditions such as a step ladder
EZ Start Unloader
- Eliminates back pressure in the pump while starting the engine
- Makes pressure washer easier to start
- Less damaging to starter motors on electric start engines
Pressure Washer Frames
- All pressure washer frames have a baked-on powder coat finish for extra durability, corrosion resistance, and chip resistance (excludes vertical pressure washers)
- All pressure washer carts roll on fully pneumatic tires for easy maneuverability on any terrain (excludes vertical pressure washers)
1750 psi Split Lance
- Splits into two pieces for easy storage
- Rubber coated
- Compatible with many accessories
3600 psi Split Lance
- Splits into two pieces for easy storage
- Compatible with many accessories
4000 psi Straight Lance
- Chrome plated
- Gun is rated to 5000 psi

Idrojet Nozzle
- Easily change from high to low pressure by pushing nozzle head
- Spray pattern is adjustable from 0-80 degrees by twisting nozzle holder
Q.C. Nozzle System
- Quickly change spray pattern and pressure by inserting new nozzles
- Comes with five nozzles 0,5,25,40 degrees high pressure, and 65 degrees low pressure quick couple nozzles
Cast Iron Cylinder Sleeve
- Harder material promotes increased engine life
Low Oil Shutdown
- Engine shuts down when oil level is too low (for gas pressure washers only)
- Eliminates risk of engine damage due to insufficient lubrication
GFCI Ground Fault Current Interrupter
- Protects user from accidental electrocution (for electric pressure washers only)
Thermal Protection
- Safeguards pump against overheating
- Hot water is discharged before it can damage the pump
Safety Relief
- Used on units producing pressures of 2000 psi and above
- Provides additional protection in case the unloader fails
- When pressure builds to dangerous levels the valve opens and the pressure is relieved
- Commonly called a Pop-Off Valve
Chemical Injection
- All pressure washers feature downstream, low pressure chemical injection
- Includes Suction hose
- No chemicals enter the pump
Hose Quick Couplers
- Leak Free
- Screw type design is safer than standard ball couplers
