Need a Pressure Washer?

[RBallard]

I have developed a low pressure water mist system for fire protection purposes and have conducted testing at at rather large insurance company. They in turn are now conducting their own research but with high pressure water mist. The problem with high pressure mist systems are the costs of the pumps. usually around the $75k. This insurance company, that make billions and billions, found a solution to the $75k pump. Take a look at the picture.



Imagine the poor lab tech that has to start them all, refuel them, not to mention figure out which one turned off should one quit.

surprised they didn't go electric with a back up power source, wouldn't be that much worse then keeping after better then two dozen (hard to count in the pic) gassers, bet it gets a little thick in there with that many motors howling away, 10-15k worth of pressure washers plus the plumbing in that pic is a bit of a chunk for a experiment

34 in all, the guys at Nothern Tool and Equipment must have loved them. I looked up the model, $399 each + shipping.

Judging by the hoses on the floor, I wouldn't think they needed 34 of them to mist that room! :-laf
