Enhanced Performance & Maintenance For Improved Washing

FREE SHIPPING (lower 48 United States)

The ACTIVE 3.0 is designed with improved internals and easy serviceability in mind.

Key Benefits

• Performance: Patented 5 piston pump produces 3.0 gpm & 1000psi @ 18 amps

• Ultra-Quiet Operation: The low-speed induction motor is rated for 1600rpm, reducing sound to approximately 75db

• Easy Serviceability and Improved Internals: With an oil plug & drain for easy maintenance and upgraded seals, valves & pistons the 3.0 is a serviceable workhorse.
  

• Incredible Flow For Easy Rinsing: Save time and improve efficiency with 3.0gpm of rinsing power.

Important Notes

What electrical circuit and extension cord do I need for the ACTIVE 3.0?

• The ACTIVE 3.0 is designed to run on a 20 amp circuit rated at 120V/60Hz. We discourage the use of extension cords, but if one must be used, it should be no longer than 50 feet and rated for 12 AWG.

* NOTE: 20 AMP Breaker & Outlet/Receptacle Required For Operation - The power cord is terminated in a NEMA 5-20R plug, recognized by a horizontal "T" on the neutral (left) side which is compatible with a NEMA 5-20R receptacle. *

Foam Cannon Performance with 3.0 GPM Systems

The Active 3.0 produces a higher volume of water flow at 3.0 gallons per minute, which directly affects how foam behaves through a foam cannon.

With this increased flow, the foam output will typically appear thinner and more fluid than what many users are accustomed to with lower GPM consumer units. This is a normal result of higher water throughput.

It is important to understand that thick, shaving cream style foam often seen in videos is largely visual. In real-world detailing, that type of foam does not inherently clean better and can reduce efficiency by limiting how well the solution spreads and dwells across the surface.

A more fluid foam that evenly coats the vehicle and remains on the surface for the proper dwell time will perform fully as intended for loosening dirt, road film, and contamination prior to rinsing.

Since implementing the Active 3.0 in our detailing operations we have consistently found that higher GPM systems like the Active 3.0 lead to faster and more efficient washing. Increased water volume improves rinsing performance and helps move contamination off the surface more effectively. This has a direct impact on workflow speed, especially when working on multiple vehicles.

From a practical standpoint, this makes a greater difference in overall efficiency than producing thick, video-style foam.

This system is particularly well suited for environments where:

• Fast and thorough rinsing is a priority

• Efficiency across multiple vehicles matters

• Consistent, repeatable wash performance is required

The focus with a 3.0 GPM system is not foam appearance, but real cleaning performance and workflow efficiency, which is what ultimately matters in both professional and high-frequency use.
