It was the first days of last April when Dynaset’s CEO Reijo Karppinen got a customer inquiry that asked if they could use a DYNASET KPL High-Pressure Street Washing Unit as disinfection equipment. Why not, actually it would be a super-fast way to disinfect large areas. The same kind of inquiries from around the world started to flow into the Dynaset office because of the COVID-19 situation. The discovery of the new application could also be seen on the production line, where the unit’s pumps are assembled. More demand for pumps means more pumps to assemble.
Dynaset KPL Unit as a Disinfection Equipment
The new application was simple to make possible from Dynaset’s point of view. One of the main components of a KPL Unit, an HPW pump, is made from such materials that it can handle disinfectants without problems.
“As a rule of thumb, fluid can be pumped with our pumps if stored in plastic containers. Just run some water through the system as after-use maintenance,” says Reijo Karppinen, Founder of Dynaset.
So, the DYNASET KPL High Pressure Street Washing Unit and HPW Hydraulic Power Washers can be used as pro-level disinfectant spreaders. In the best scenario, the disinfection equipment allows workers to to disinfect surfaces and areas without leaving the machine’s cabin.
Disinfection equipment for professional disinfection
Standard models can be used for disinfection by using the right nozzles and flow rate. The KPL Unit is an excellent tool for disinfectant spreading in large and public spaces, like in entryways of metros, marketplaces, in front of public buildings, and sports arenas. The power washing pistol, which is standard equipment of the KPL Unit, is a valuable tool if you need to wash park benches and railings. Schoolyards and playgrounds can also be disinfected super-fast with the KPL unit.

Large halls, like airport terminals, are possible to wash with the same unit. For this purpose, the carrier machine has to be suitable for indoor usage. Using the KPL unit as a disinfection unit can be done much faster compared to disinfection that is done with a backpack sprayer.
For example, the KPL Unit XL-version container can hold up to 1080 liters of disinfection fluid. For instance, compared to a 20-liter backpack sprayer, the unit has 54 times more disinfectant ready to use. This means that the user does not have to refill the container constantly.
In addition, the unit’s standard 20-meter-long high-pressure hose can be extended with a high-pressure extension hose. This makes the disinfection working area more significant, and the user has to move the carrier machine even less. We have also provided a vertical washing boom, so if there is, for example, a long railing near the sidewalk that has to be disinfected, this accessory can do the trick.
Versatility Is the Key
The strength of the KPL unit is its versatility. You can use the same unit for street cleaning, more accurately demanding power washing tasks, and disinfection. The unit is easy to bring next to the wash-needing object and accomplish the washing or disinfection task in no time. A wide range of accessories makes even drainpipe cleaning possible. This drainpipe cleaning application is easy to make possible. Just plug an extension hose into the KPL’s high-pressure hose and equip the other end with a pipe-cleaning nozzle. These nozzles are designed in a way that the water flow makes them go forward inside the pipe.
