Power
The WEN PW2200's axial pump, powered by a 13-amp universal motor, can provide a pressure of up to 2200 PSI (approximately 37 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.65 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 1700 PSI and the flow rate is 1.2 GPM. Thus, the WEN PW2200 achieves a cleaning power of 2040 Cleaning Units.
The PW2200 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
The WEN PW2200's commitment to mobility is evident through its portable design and approximate dimensions of L22.4 x W12.9 x H13.8 in. The handle adds to the PW2200 convenience of transport.
With its lightweight construction, tipping the scales at only 22.05 lbs, this unit is a portable powerhouse for all your cleaning needs. Thanks in part to its plastic frame, it remains lightweight. Complementing its lightweight frame, four never-flat wheels are integrated, facilitating effortless transportation.
