Simpson PS3228-S - 3300 PSI 2.5 GPM Gas Pressure Washer With Honda Engine

Power

The Simpson PS3228-S

Utilizing a 196cc (5.5 hp) engine, this machine's triplex pump can deliver a pressure of 3300 PSI (around 55 times stronger than a standard garden hose) and a flow rate of up to 2.5 GPM (CETA-certified values). Thus, the Simpson PS3228-S achieves a cleaning power of 8250 Cleaning Units.

To start the Honda GX200 engine of this gas-powered washer, users employ the familiar pull-start technique.

The pressure washer's steel tank has a maximum capacity of 0.8 gallon for storing gasoline.

Design & Handling

With its wheelbarrow-inspired design, the Simpson PS3228-S aims for excellent mobility and stability, enabling effortless maneuvering and dependable performance across diverse environments. The robust welded steel frame guarantees longevity of the assembly, providing stability and protection for internal components, even under demanding working conditions. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.

Tipping the scales at 82 lbs, this unit's weight presents a notable challenge for users, especially when it comes to lifting and moving it, particularly over uneven ground. Its 196cc Honda GX200 engine, the triplex pump and welded steel frame are mainly responsible for its heavy weight. Nevertheless, with its two 10" pneumatic wheels, users can manage the PS3228-S with less difficulty, even over uneven terrain.

Main Features

The Simpson PS3228-S

The Simpson PS3228-S's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.

• Soap injection: Despite the absence of a soap tank, detergent supply is facilitated through the use of a siphon hose. The Simpson PS3228-S has an automatic soap dilution mechanism, which dilutes the detergent using a 7:1 ratio. Upon connecting a soap nozzle, the pressure washer takes over the task of seamlessly combining the detergent with the water flow.
• Pressure hose: For easy organization, the included 25 ft ⌀5/16" 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: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its steel wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
• Nozzles: Review the table below to learn about the 5 included nozzles and the surfaces they're recommended for.

Please be aware: The shapes of the depicted nozzles are for illustration purposes and may differ. Symbols utilized include a red cross indicating 'Not recommended,' a green check for 'Suitable,' and an orange check for 'Use with caution.'
