Description
Zoom on the Sun Joe SPX200E
In summary, the Sun Joe SPX200E is a light duty pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces and high-reach cleaning
- cleaning of painted or delicate surfaces
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
Its axial (wobble plate) pump, which utilizes a 10 amp universal motor, may deliver a pressure of up to 1350 PSI (almost 23 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.45 GPM. These are the maximum values that the washer can reach only under specific conditions. Under typical load, working pressure is 870 PSI and rated flow is 1.32 GPM. These values correspond to a cleaning power of 1148.4 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the SPX200E is started simply by an ON/OFF switch. 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 D6.7 x W7.5 x H15 in, the Sun Joe SPX200E makes mobility one of its core strengths. The handle adds to the SPX200E convenience of transport.
With a weight of only 9.2 lbs, the unit is definitely easy to carry around. Its plastic frame certainly plays a key role in this light weight. This light weight compensates for the fact that the SPX200E doesn't have any wheels, as it's not something necessary.
Main Features
Along with the Sun Joe SPX200E itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose and a detergent addition feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching a foam cannon (not included) to the end of the gun. The Sun Joe SPX200E is not equipped with a soap dilution mechanism, and thus, it is up to the user to ensure the detergent’s correct dilution ratio when using it.
- Pressure hose: The unit comes with an easy-to-connect 20 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose. However, it doesn't feature any proper storage solution for it (no reel, strap or hook).
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its versatile wand. Sun Joe's adjustable wand removes the need for different nozzles. By turning the pressure adjustment knob, it is possible to easily change the water pressure from an intense, 0° jet spray to a gentle, 45° fan spray.
Other Features
- Total Stop System (TSS): This feature automatically shuts off the pressure washer when the trigger is not engaged, to prolong the pump's lifespan.
- Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation).
- Accessories: On top of an owner's manual (opens in a new tab) and the usual documentation to get you swiftly started, the Sun Joe SPX200E also comes with wand, pressure hose, spray gun, power cord and nozzle cleaner.
