Flow and pressure: how important is it in the high-pressure parts washers

The high-pressure parts washers are an excellent washing solution for those looking for precise and powerful performance. In this Focus we talked about how important the flow rate of pressure pumps is, because it allows you to orient yourself towards the product that best suits your needs.

In this article we see how important the relationship between flow rate and pressure in a high-pressure parts washer.

High pressure parts washers machines: characteristics

High-pressure parts washers are particularly suitable for treating difficult-to-wash contaminants. In addition, they are ideal for cleaning machinery with a structure with particular shapes that requires great precision in the washing phase.

The characteristics of these parts washers are varied and meet different needs. Some aspects to pay attention to in the evaluation phase before purchasing are:

• dimensions of the machine: the parts washers have a size that varies according to the type of use to which they will have to respond. For example, there are specific parts washers for washing small and medium-sized pieces;
• detergent used in the washing: we recommend that you focus on water-based ones, respecting the environment and workers;
• power supply: choose electric to take advantage of clean energy that allows you not to pollute during your washes;
• lighting system: LED lights are ideal for longer life and lower energy consumption.

Pressure or flow: which of these do you give more importance?

Both flow and pressure are key elements when it comes to high pressure machinery. But more specifically, what do these words mean and how do they differ?

• Pressure is the delivery force of the liquid and is measured in bars. As you will imagine, as the pressure increases, the power with which the liquid comes out of the machine also increases;
• The flow rate, on the other hand, indicates the quantity of liquid that comes out in a given period of time. As the flow rate increases, the speed and effectiveness with which you can clean a particularly heavy and oily type of dirt increases.

Do not make the mistake of thinking that, given that we are talking about high pressure parts washers, the flow rate is a less important parameter to consider. Nothing more wrong. As we have seen, greater range means greater speed in cleaning components.

A certain level of flow, therefore, is essential to generate truly effective results in the washing procedure. In other words, it is precisely the flow rate that will allow you to achieve a high degree of cleanliness.

For this reason, our advice is to make sure that the flow rate of the parts washer is adequate for your work. And, again for this reason, in our offer we have optimized the relationship between flow rate and pressure: we have managed to favour a greater flow rate to maximize performance.
