Zoom on the AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB
The AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB, a medium duty pressure washer, gives its user an all-around versatile cleaning experience, topped off by the following features:
- comprehensive cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and readying surfaces for painting
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, and removing stubborn stains
The following sections will present you in detail its power characteristics and design, its main features and all the additional features it has to offer.
Power
With a 13-amp universal motor powering it, the axial (wobble plate) pump of this unit is capable of achieving a pressure of 2300 PSI (approximately 38 times greater than that of a standard garden hose) and a flow rate of up to 1.7 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). While these PSI and GPM values represent the maximum capabilities of the washer under specific conditions, it's important to note that under typical usage, the working pressure is 1800 PSI and the flow rate is 1.1 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 1980 Cleaning Units.
The BC2N1HSB initiates operation effortlessly with a straightforward ON/OFF switch. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB's mobility is greatly enhanced by its hand truck design. Built to endure, the metal frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the BC2N1HSB convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With its lightweight construction, tipping the scales at only 31.1 lbs, this unit is a portable powerhouse for all your cleaning needs. Further enhancing its lightweight design, the unit features two 7" never-flat wheels, streamlining transportation and maneuverability.
In addition to that, the unit can be detached from the frame to become a versatile hand-carry device that allows you to use it anywhere on-the-go.
Main Features
The AR Blue Clean BC2N1HSB comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent addition feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the wand. You can manually adjust the detergent dilution ratio using the foam cannon's dial.
- Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 25 ft high-pressure hose can be stored on the unit using a set of convenient hooks when it's not in use, ensuring a clutter-free workspace.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
