Pressure washer equipment can be classified into many categories. You can divide these machines based on output temperature, source of power, and mobility, amongst other specifications. The following is an overview of various classifications of pressure washer equipment.
Temperature
There are three kinds of machines based on output temperature: cold water machines, hot water machines, and steam pressure washers. Cold water machines provide the output at room temperature, hot water machines up to 210°F, and steam pressure washers up to 330°F. Higher temperatures translate to greater cleaning power for the most demanding applications. For added convenience, Daimer® has several pressure washers with tri-mode capabilities allowing the operator to have all three features available with one machine.
Source of Power
Pressure washer equipment is powered by various different sources. In general, these can be classified into two sources: electric motor and combustion engine. Electric machines, as their name implies, are powered by an electric motor that derives energy from a source of electricity. Machines that are powered by a combustion engine use fuels, such as gasoline, propane, or diesel for generating energy.
In general, fuel powered pressure washers are used outdoors where there is adequate ventilation and no noise constraint. Electric machines are mostly used indoors because they produce less noise and no exhaust fumes. However, fuel powered machines can be used indoors if there is proper ventilation and electric machines may be used outdoors with a generator or if an electrical supply is available.
Mobility
In terms of mobility, pressure washer equipment can be classified into two categories: stationary machines and mobile machines. Mobile machines are generally used outdoors because of their easy portability around large areas such as buildings, parks, and parking garages. Mobile systems are also beneficial indoors, in vast industrial buildings and other large indoor facilities.
For those with stationary machines or fuel powered pressure washers that need to be used indoors, Daimer® offers pressure washers with their Long Hose Technology, which allows operators to reach areas up to 300 feet away.
