Engineered for Real-World Performance
The Centurion P2 gives you the best of both worlds: compact design and powerful output. With 3400 PSI of pressure and 2.5 gallons per minute, this pump packs enough cleaning punch to blast away dirt, grime, grease and all the rest from driveways, decks, vehicles, and equipment - all while maintaining a smooth flow.
Its axial cam design means maximum efficiency, converting engine rotation into pumping action with minimal friction and no unnecessary complications. This means less to worry about when it comes to maintenance, and a pump that just keeps on performing.
Whether you're cleaning up residential properties, farm equipment or commercial surfaces, the P2 has got you covered - day in, day out, season after season.
Axial Pump Design: The Easy, Efficient Way to Clean
The axial pump style - fewer moving parts means less to go wrong, which is exactly what you want in a cleaning pump. The pistons move in a circular motion around a wobble or swash plate that drives them back and forth, creating water pressure with a minimum of fuss.
This design is ideal for users looking for reliability and cleaning power without the complexity of trouble-prone systems. The Centurion P2's axial configuration keeps things simple, durable and long-lasting, providing years of dependable use with minimal upkeep.
The stainless steel plungers in the P2 resist corrosion, wear, and heat - maintaining performance over time, even in tough conditions. Combine this with the precision-milled aluminium manifold, and you get reliable output and efficient cooling for a longer service life.
Direct Drive: Smaller, Lighter, More Efficient
With its direct-drive setup, the Centurion P2 mounts directly onto the gas engine's crankshaft - no pulleys or belts needed. This means a smaller, lighter, more efficient system with fewer moving parts and less vibration.
The 3/4-inch hollow shaft makes it compatible with most horizontal-shaft gas engines commonly used in pressure washers - models from Honda, Kohler, Powerease and Briggs & Stratton to name a few. The result is a smooth-running, powerful cleaning system that's a cinch to install and maintain.
At just 7.5 lbs, the P2 is light enough for portable use, yet strong enough to deliver the high-pressure power needed for serious cleaning.
Built-in Unloader for Smooth, Safe Operation
The Centurion P2 comes equipped with a built-in unloader to keep things running smoothly and safely. No need for additional setup or maintenance - just plug it in and go.The Centurion P2's built-in unloader valve is a key safety and performance feature. The moment you release the spray gun trigger, the unloader kicks in and redirects water flow inside the pump , letting off steam and stopping internal damage in its tracks.
Not only does this protect the pump from getting blown out by pressure spikes and overheating, but it also extends its overall lifespan. It's a clever design that keeps things simple - fewer connections and leak points - making it a breeze to set up and keep running reliably.
The unloader's built-in pressure control ensures that the P2 starts up smoothly and delivers consistent pressure, making it one of the most user-friendly and low-maintenance high-pressure pumps out there.
Fixed Chemical Injection Port
For tougher cleaning jobs, the fixed soap injector pulls detergent directly into the water stream at low pressure. All you need to do is pop a nozzle on and you've got yourself a high-pressure wash system that can handle soap, degreasers or sanitizers with ease - perfect for washing vehicles, siding, decks or any equipment that needs a serious clean.
The chemical injection system is pre-installed and all set to go - just switch to a low-pressure nozzle and you've got reliable detergent delivery every time. This gives you versatility and efficiency in one neat package.
Thermal Relief Valve for Pump Protection
The Centurion P2 has a thermal relief valve (85.300.022) to guard against overheating - one of the most common reasons for high-pressure pump failure.
When you're running idly with the trigger released, water can heat up fast. The thermal relief valve automatically kicks in to release the hot water and bring in some cool water - just the job for stopping internal seal damage and keeping things safe and sound.
This vital safety feature adds an extra layer of reliability and gives you peace of mind - knowing that your pump will stay in top condition even on long or intermittent cleaning sessions.
Precision-Built for Durability
Every single bit of the Centurion P2 has been designed with strength and endurance in mind. The stainless steel plungers are precision machined to keep things tight and smooth and won't warp or get damaged under high pressure. The aluminum manifold is super-light, but also offers rock-solid corrosion resistance and thermal stability.
The oil-lubricated crankcase keeps things running smoothly - reducing friction and heat build-up. With a 2.2 fl oz capacity and 30W non-detergent oil, you can be sure of optimal lubrication for long life and consistent performance.
Even under the toughest conditions - from searing heat to heavy daily use - the P2 stays cool, quiet and efficient - no fuss at all.
Ideal for Residential and Light Commercial Use
The Centurion P2 is the perfect all-rounder - capable of tackling all sorts of cleaning tasks from home maintenance to light-duty commercial work. With 3400 PSI pressure and 2.5 GPM flow rate, it's got the oomph to handle both delicate and heavy cleaning jobs with ease.
Perfect for:
-
Washing driveways, patios and decks
-
Cleaning vehicles, boats and trailers
-
Removing grime from outdoor furniture and siding
-
Maintaining farm or garden equipment
-
Light commercial property maintenance
Compact, efficient and powerful, the P2 is your ideal solution if you need high-pressure performance without the bulk or maintenance of a triplex pump.
Easy Maintenance and Serviceability
One of the P2's biggest selling points is its low-maintenance design. The sealed crankcase stops dirt getting in and the oil fill port makes servicing a doddle. With just 2.2 fl oz of oil to keep an eye on, upkeep is minimal but essential for keeping your pump running like new.
The aluminium body resists corrosion and the built-in unloader reduces the number of external components that need inspecting or replacing. Simple routine checks - oil level, inlet filters and hose connections - are all that's needed to keep your pump running like a dream.
Replacement parts like seals, plungers and valves are readily available, making repairs simple and cost-effective when needed.
Designed for Quick Installation
The 3/4-inch hollow shaft makes it easy to mount the Centurion P2 directly onto most horizontal-shaft gas engines. The pump's compact footprint and light 7.5 lb weight make it perfect for portable and wheeled pressure washer systems.
Connections are straightforward:
-
A 3/4" GHF inlet for standard garden hoses\
-
An M22 outlet for high-pressure hose connections\
-
A built-in chemical injector for detergent use
Setup takes just a few minutes - and you'll be ready to blast away dirt, grease and grime with professional precision.
Performance You Can Rely On
