HDS 12/18-4 S

This entry-level machine in the Super class of Kärcher hot water high-pressure cleaners is characterised by a high water flow rate, meaning that it can even be operated with a second spray lance.
The high-pressure cleaner is intuitive to operate and transport, and thanks to the eco!efficiency mode,
optimised burner engineering and precise cleaning agent dosing, it is also highly efficient and environmentally-friendly.
The patented nozzle technology, 3-piston axial pump with ceramic pistons and the turbo blower, among other features,
ensure an outstanding cleaning performance, while operational safety is guaranteed at all times by precise exhaust monitoring.
The robust, corrosion-resistant chassis can also withstand tough applications easily and is simply and conveniently constructed.
This allows easy access to all of the important components and ensures that operating datacan always be retrieved easily.


Features and benefits:
High efficiency     
In the eco!efficiency mode the machine operates in the most economical temperature range (60°C) – with full water flow.
The burner cycles are optimised to reduce fuel consumption by 20% compared to full-load operation.

Reliability     
The Soft Damping System (SDS) compensates for vibration and pressure peaks in the high-pressure system.
Large, easy-to-reach water fine filter for protecting the pump against dirt particles in the water.
Machine operational data (duration of use and required service intervals) can be retrieved.

Maximum efficiency     
Highly efficient, tried-and-tested burner technology.
Four-pole electric motor with three-piston axial pump.

Storage     
Spacious storage compartment, e.g. for cleaning agents, gloves or tools.
Within easy reach for left-handed/right-handed operators and ideal for two-spray lance operation.

Cleaning agent dosing unit     
Precise dosing valve ensures low consumption.
Easy changeover between detergent tanks 1 and 2.
Rinsing takes place automatically in the 0 position.

LED display     
Clearly arranged centrally at the control panel (HDS 13/20)
Filling level indicators for fuel, cleaning agent and system care.
Integrated elapsed time counter.
