Active 3.0 Pressure Washer (Machine Only)

The ACTIVE™ 3.0 Electric Pressure Washer is the flagship pressure washer in the ACTIVE range, developed from the experience and engineering behind the ACTIVE 2.0 and 2.3. Designed for both professional detailers and serious DIY enthusiasts, the ACTIVE 3.0 delivers an impressive combination of high water flow, strong working pressure, quiet operation and serviceable pump technology.

High Flow Performance

The ACTIVE 3.0 is designed around achieving an excellent balance between pressure and water flow. Delivering approximately 3.0 GPM (11.4 LPM), it provides the high water volume required for effective vehicle rinsing while maintaining a strong 1000 PSI working pressure.

This combination makes the ACTIVE 3.0 particularly effective for automotive washing. The increased water flow helps quickly flush away loosened dirt, road grime, shampoo and foam, while the controlled working pressure provides effective cleaning without relying on excessive pressure alone.

The machine is capable of up to 1500 PSI peak pressure, while the 1000 PSI working pressure provides the practical operating specification for regular use.

3.0 GPM / 11.4 LPM Water Flow

High water flow is one of the major advantages of the ACTIVE 3.0, providing fast and effective rinsing for cars, 4WDs, motorcycles and other cleaning applications.

Patented 5-Piston Pump

At the heart of the ACTIVE 3.0 is its 5-piston pump system. The pump has been engineered to push the performance benchmark of the ACTIVE pressure washer range while providing the flow required for demanding detailing applications.

The pump also features upgraded seals, valves and pistons compared with the previous ACTIVE 2.0 and 2.3 models. This upgraded internal construction is designed to provide improved durability and longer running life.

Quiet 1600 RPM Induction Motor

High performance does not have to mean excessive noise. The ACTIVE 3.0 uses a low-speed induction motor rated at 1600 RPM, helping reduce the operating sound profile to approximately 75 dB.

This makes the ACTIVE 3.0 particularly suitable for garage-based detailing setups where excessive noise can quickly become frustrating.

Designed for Professional Detailing

The ACTIVE 3.0 has been designed with the needs of professional detailers in mind. Its high water flow, strong working pressure, serviceable pump and compatibility with dedicated detailing accessories make it an ideal foundation for a professional wash system.

It is equally well suited to enthusiasts who want a premium pressure washer for maintaining their own vehicles at home.

Pair the machine with a suitable foam cannon, pressure washer hose, spray gun and quick-connect accessories to create a dedicated vehicle washing setup.

Foam Cannon Ready

The ACTIVE 3.0 is supplied with a 1.65 mm orifice for foam cannon use. The 1.65 mm orifice is designed to provide the appropriate balance between foam cannon performance and electrical load during normal operation.

This allows the ACTIVE 3.0 to be paired with compatible aftermarket foam cannons for pre-washing and snow foam applications.

Recommended foam cannon orifice: 1.65 mm

Multiple Spray Nozzles Included

The ACTIVE 3.0 includes four spray nozzles, allowing the spray pattern to be changed according to the application.

The supplied nozzle specification is designed around a 6.3 orifice, providing the intended balance of pressure and flow from the machine. When selecting alternative nozzles, ACTIVE recommends staying within approximately 6.3–7.0 orifice sizes.

Serviceable Pump Design

Unlike many consumer pressure washers designed primarily as sealed, disposable units, the ACTIVE 3.0 has been developed with serviceability in mind.

The pump incorporates dedicated oil fill and drain points, allowing routine maintenance and oil changes to be carried out as required.

Australian Electrical Specification

The Australian ACTIVE 3.0 is specified for Australian electrical supply:

• Voltage: 240 V / 50 Hz
• Rated current: 10 A
• Power cord: 6 m

Note: The ACTIVE 3.0 is a high-performance pressure washer and should be operated in accordance with the supplied instructions and appropriate electrical safety requirements.

Hose & Connection Compatibility

The ACTIVE 3.0 uses a ¾" inlet and an M22-14 mm outlet. When selecting aftermarket hoses, guns or quick-connect fittings, ensure they are compatible with these specifications.

For best performance, ACTIVE recommends a steel-braided rubber pressure washer hose with a minimum 5/16" internal diameter. Hoses smaller than 5/16", including ¼" hoses, are not recommended.

Using an appropriately sized hose helps the pressure washer maintain its intended water flow and pressure performance.
