“AST® switches off motors and pumps when the pressure washers are idle,” said Matthew Baratta, Daimer.com spokesman. “These machines increase productivity in pressure washing applications and are designed for operators working with long hoses far from the system.”
What is AST®?
AST® works as follows: When engaged, the technology shuts off the pump and motor after 30 seconds if the gun is not in use and water is not flowing through the system. When the power washer operator pulls the trigger again, the motor and pump go on.
This feature was engineered for applications in which pressure washer operators are working a distance from the machine and it is not practical for them to go back and forth to turn it off during every work break. The pumps and motors in many electric pressure washers remain active even if water is flowing through the system — this can damage the pump and motor.
