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's motor is effortlessly activated with a simple ON/OFF switch, ensuring convenient operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The DeWalt DXPW2800E's commitment to mobility is evident through its portable design and approximate dimensions of D16 x W16.6 x H27 in. 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. Given that much of the weight is due to its motor, DeWalt's selection of a plastic frame ensures the unit remains reasonably lightweight. However, with its two 7.5" never-flat wheels, the DXPW2800E is easy to maneuver.
Main Features
The DeWalt DXPW2800E
The DeWalt DXPW2800E's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: A removable tank ensures storage for detergent within the pressure washer. The detergent is automatically mixed with the water flow by the pressure washer when a soap nozzle is connected.
- Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 35 ft ⌀1/4" 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 enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
