Power
The DeWalt DXPW2800E
With an induction motor, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2800 PSI (roughly 47 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1 GPM (CETA-certified values), resulting in the DeWalt DXPW2800E's cleaning power of 2800 Cleaning Units.
The DXPW2800E is easily activated by an ON/OFF switch, offering convenient operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
With its portable design and approximate dimensions of D16 x W16.6 x H27 in, the DeWalt DXPW2800E priotirizes mobility one of its key features. The telescopic handle further eases storage and offers a convenient pulling height, allowing effortless transportation.
At 42.5 lbs, this unit is light enough for easy handling, yet substantial enough to provide stability during operation. With its motor contributing substantially to the weight, DeWalt's plastic frame choice ensures the unit remains manageable. Despite this, the DXPW2800E's two 7.5" never-flat wheels ensure effortless maneuverability.
