The Kärcher HDS 8/20 DE is a powerful diesel-driven hot water pressure washer designed for demanding professional cleaning applications where mains electricity is unavailable. Combining a robust diesel engine, industrial crankshaft pump, and highly efficient burner technology, this machine delivers exceptional cleaning performance in construction, agriculture, transport, municipal, and industrial environments.

Powerful Off-Grid Hot Water Cleaning

Delivering up to 200 bar working pressure with a water flow rate of 800 l/h, the HDS 8/20 DE effectively removes mud, grease, oil, and stubborn contamination from machinery, vehicles, plant equipment, and industrial surfaces. The hot water system significantly improves cleaning efficiency while reducing detergent usage.

Reliable Diesel Engine with Electric Start

Powered by a durable diesel combustion engine with electric start, the machine operates completely independently of external power sources. This makes it ideal for remote locations, construction sites, agricultural environments, and mobile professional cleaning applications. The engine complies with EU Stage V emissions regulations.

Heavy-Duty Crankshaft Pump

The HDS 8/20 DE features Kärcher’s proven crankshaft pump with ceramic pistons, providing exceptional durability, long service life, and reliable performance during intensive daily operation. This industrial-grade pump system is designed for continuous professional use in harsh environments.

Efficient Hot Water Burner Technology

The highly efficient diesel-fired burner system delivers strong hot water cleaning performance up to 80°C, making it highly effective for removing grease, oils, and heavy industrial contamination. The integrated 30-litre fuel tank allows extended cleaning sessions without frequent refuelling.

Outstanding Mobility & Rugged Construction

Large puncture-proof wheels, ergonomic push handles, and a steering castor with parking brake provide excellent manoeuvrability across rough terrain. The heavy-duty tubular steel protective frame safeguards the machine against impacts and also enables safe crane loading for transport on construction and industrial sites.

Advanced Safety & Protection Systems

Kärcher’s integrated protection systems help maximise machine lifespan and operational reliability, including:

• Thermo and safety valve
• Water filter system
• Exhaust temperature monitoring
• Soft Damping System (SDS)
• Robust protective frame construction

User-Friendly Professional Operation

The machine features simple one-button control operation and practical onboard storage for accessories such as hoses and lances, helping improve efficiency during transport and daily use.
