Enough power in yours?
August 1st 2007 Prochem has extended its top of the range Everest programme to include the 408 and 650 cleaning systems. The secret behind what are, according to Prochem, the most powerful liquid-cooled machines of their kind on the market, is the 68 HP 1.6 litre dual overhead-cam petrol engine, also used to drive manufacturer Hyundai's Accent car range. Sharing the original Everest performance benefits, the new models also pack a host of innovative design features including a new chemical simulator valve, console illumination for night operation, and diagnostic indicators. Designed for commercial jobs or de-flooding and water restoration work, the Everest is a dual operation system for carpet, upholstery and hard surface cleaning. The simplified multi-stage heat exchanger system provides constant hot cleaning solution with two wand operation at up to 1200 psi pressure on the standard model and up to 3000 psi on the Everest HP, for all types of hard surface cleaning and pressure washing. Alongside the engines,new and old models differ in solution pump output: the 408 and 650 use General Emperor 5.5 gpm in place of the original 4.5 gpm. Solution pressure controls on all models are adjustable with magnetic clutch switch for de-flooding work. Vacuum technology output is also increased, from the original Sutorbilt T408 Tri-lobe 405 cfm to a Gardner Denver Tri-Flo 408 cfm for the Everest 408 and a mighty Gardner Denver Tri-Flo 650 cfm for the largest model. Additional features include patented heat exchange system that eliminates by-pass of hot water to waste tank; chemical simulator valve allowing quick setting of chemical flow; and hot water tap for mixing chemical pre-concentrate. Optional fresh water tanks and waste pump out system are also available for the range. Warranties on machines are for one-year, with two years cover on water pumps and 18 months on vacuum pumps, with the Everest 408 and 650 General Emperor pumps under warranty for 5 years.Operator training is also provided.
