The latest Wildcat range of compact hot water/steam pressure cleaners from Edge are claimed to be the most technically advanced products on the market Although pitched at the smaller user, the economical price belies their feature-rich specification and high cleaning performance

Typical applications are car valeting, motor traders, smaller haulage companies, general engineering and food processing companies together with plant cleaning operations for the farming, building, construction and hire trade industries.

Three models are available in the range, offering pressure ratings of 120, 130 or 170lb/in2, respectively.

Two models are designed for medium/heavy duties and operate off a single-phase 240V/13A supply, while a more powerful heavy-duty model with a flow rate of 14 litre/min operates from a three-phase 415V/16A supply.

User-friendly features include microprocessor operation, centrally located controls and a quick-release gun and lance assembly.

Manoeuvrability is provided with a swivel wheel which is lockable to provide stability when operating.

An integral 20 litre detergent tank is also incorporated within the robust but stylish, corrosion-proof casing with compact overall dimensions of only 106 x 75 x 90cm.

Other features which put the Wildcat in a class above the competition include: slow speed pump and automatic start/stop with trigger operation; leak detection with shut down in standby mode to prevent unnecessary wear; high pressure hot water operation with steam facility (140C maximum); total shutdown if machine is left in standby mode in excess of 20 minutes; and automatic sensing of low levels for water softener, heater fuel and chemicals to prevent avoidable breakdowns.

The impressive range of optional extras includes: rotating and wash brushes, foam equipment, wet sandblasting, drain nozzles, turbo and extension lances together with a hose reel.
