The BS170NB's 196cc OHV engine delivers 6.5HP at the shaft, driving a BS170 aluminun axial pump that's basically a direct-drive unit with a ceramic plunger set—it'll push 9 LPM up to 210 bar, but the real working range is typically 180-200 bar for sustained cleaning without cavitation.
You'll see these on construction sites for concrete form stripping and heavy equipment degreasing, though the round water column nozzle isn't ideal for paint removal or soft surfaces; it's actually better suited for lumber mills where you need that concentrated jet to blast bark and sap from saw blades.
Flow rate at 9 LPM means you're pulling about 2.4 GPM, which is enough for most commercial kitchen hood cleaning where you're running degreaser through the system first—just watch your chemcial compatibilty with the axial pump seals, as some caustic formulations will degrade them over 6 months or so.
Recoil start is straightforward, but the low oil shutdown protection is a real plus for rental fleets or crews who forget to check levels; we usually have these in stock with a 12-month warranty, though the Euro V certification means the carburetor is tuned leaner than older models, so expect a slightly rougher idle until it warms up.
MOQ is typically 5 units for direct orders, but we can do single units through distribution channels—shipping weight is 37 kg dry, so factor in pallet charges if you're ordering more than 10, and confirm lead time as the axial pump housings have been running 20 days or so from foundry.
The 8-meter hose is a standdard rubber-reinforced braid, not the high-flex stuff you'd want for tight corners, and the round nozzle gives you a pencil jet that's pretty much useless for rinsing soap off a car body—you'll want a separate foam cannon or adjustable nozzle for that.
Typically, we start at 10 units for a first order, but we can adjust based on your needs. Just reach out to our sales team to confirm.
For standard orders, lead time is about 15-20 working days after payment. Larger quantities might take a bit longer, and we'll keep you updated.
Yes, it's certified with both CE and Euro V, so you're covered for quality and emissions standards. We can provide the documentation on request.
Absolutely, you can tweak the pressure within that range using the unloader valve. It gives you flexibility for different cleaning tasks.
Yes, the BS170 aluminum axial pump is a standard component that can be swapped out easily. We also stock spare parts for quick replacements.
