The YVB8KMS Pressure Washer Unloader, developed by a company known for producing high-quality fluid handling components, is a top-notch solution for pressure washer systems looking for a integrated shut-off feature for the motor or engine. Its been built with the goal of making safe, reliable, and automatic shutdown an easy reality - a major plus for efficiency and longevity of the entire pressure washer system.
This particular pressure washer unloader is built for the tough job, able to handle a flow of 8 GPM at pressures of up to 3650 PSI. The construction also means it can withstand high-temperature applications, with water up to 195°F being no problem. To top it off, the addition of a switch makes this a perfect control unit for electrically driven pressure washer pumps or remote-controlled systems.
Product Benefits and Design Features
At its core, the YVB8KMS feature is its ability to make start-up easier and includes electronic control in a single unit - two features that are pretty darn important for both operator ease and equipment longevity.
Integrated Pressure Switch and Safety: The included 5 amp pressure switch is the real key here. When the trigger is released and the unloader switches to bypass mode, this causes an increase in static pressure which trips the switch. This signal can then be wired to safely shut down the pressure washer motor or engine to prevent the system from running needlessly or being damaged by prolonged thermal bypass. And to put your mind at ease, the switch has a UL listing, so you know its been vetted for safety and quality.
Low Re-Arm Pressure for Easy Start-Up: One feature that really helps with efficiency is the easy start-up thanks to low re-arm pressure (27% of the maximum operating pressure). This makes it easy to get the motor/engine going without struggling with a fully pressurized system in the way. Once the static pressure has dropped back down to 27% of operating pressure, the switch resets, and you're ready to go again - all of this helps to reduce wear on the motor/engine starter components.
Robust Flow and High Temperature Resilience: This unloader is built to last, with materials designed to withstand the specified maximum PSI and high maximum temperature. The well-sized connections - 3/8" MPT INLET, 3/8" FPT Outlet, and 3/8" FPT BYPASS - ensure that the 8 GPM water flow happens with a minimum of restriction and that efficiency is maintained on your cleaning job.
