    This stationary cold water high-pressure cleaner with a booster pump is designed for continuous operation in the food industry and is suitable for water inlet temperatures of up to 85°C. It operates with a flow rate of 800 l/h and a pressure of 180 bar. The high-pressure cleaner includes a water supply tank with descaling and dry-run protection, including a low-level indicator. Additionally, a detergent suction mechanism with a dosing valve and low-level indicator is provided. The construction features a crankshaft pump with a brass cylinder head as well as a frame and housing made of stainless steel. Power is supplied by a 4-pole, slow-running electric motor, with electronic monitoring supporting safe operation. Control is provided via a large rotary switch, and the design is tailored for accessible installation and maintenance. Delivery takes place without accessories; these can be added individually depending on the point of use: pressure gauge, operating hours counter, suction for a second detergent, automatic pressure relief, and various remote controls.
