High-pressure washer HD 9/18-4 St
The configurable HD 9/18-4 ST, with a power of 180 bar and 900l/h, is the all-round solution from Kärcher in the area of cold water stationary machines for single-lance operation
While many equipment features of our cold water high-pressure cleaner HD 9/18-4 ST are freely configurable,with its working pressure of 180 bar and a delivery of at least 900 l/h, it deserves the designation as an "all-rounder" for its diverse possibilities of use, from industry to agriculture. To protect the machine, optional functions such as pressure relief, dry-running protection and water softening can be integrated. For hygienically sensitive areas, the version with a stainless steel housing is recommended, while especially demanding cleaning tasks can best be tackled with the hot water version and the option of drawing in cleaning agent. The newly developed innovations with the names of EASY!Force and EASY!Lock are always included: The EASY!Force high-pressure gun utilises the recoil force of the high-pressure jet to reduce the holding force to zero, while the EASY!Lock quick-release couplings enable handling that is five times faster than conventional screw connections without compromising on robustness or longevity. Extensive accessories and further details nicely round off the well-thought-out concept of the HD 9/18-4 ST.

Configurable components
After the machine's timer function is switched off, the high-pressure unit is still pressurised. The attachment kit reduces the pressure in the system, thus ensuring protection of the pressurised components. The pressure relief attachment kit is recommended particularly if there are often longer intervals between the individual usage intervals.
The attachment kit prevents scaling in the system through the continuous dosage of liquid softeners. Damage to the pump and other key components as a result of calcification can be avoided. It is recommended for high inlet temperatures and the ST-H version.
With the "elapsed time counter" attachment kit the exact runtime of the machine can be determined. Ideal for high usage intensity - for optimising the service intervals.
The attachment kit allows the addition of detergent to be controlled remotely directly at the point of use. The low-pressure output is very efficient. Additional detergent dosing pumps are not required. A small aerosol spray is generated during the application (spray mist). The attachment kit is recommended particularly for points of use which are always used by the same people, as well as for cleaning tasks which can be completed in the low-pressure range.

The attachment kit is recommended particularly for points of use which are always used by the same people, as well as for cleaning tasks which can be completed in the low-pressure range. The version with 2 detergents is ideal, e.g., for more complex cleaning tasks, remote points of use or for vehicle cleaning.
The kit enables the control of cleaning agent injection by remote control directly at the supply point. The advantage compared with the low-pressure variant lies in the fact that no changing of the nozzle is necessary to apply the cleaning agent. The "remote control preparation" is recommended especially for supply points with frequently changing users, since no changeover at the nozzle which needs an explanation is required here, for operation by coin remote control and for cleaning tasks which require high pressure.
