1,500 PSI 2.0 GPM Cold Water Electric Pressure Washer with Baldor Motor and CP Triplex Pump
The BE Power Equipment PE-1520EW1A is a commercial-grade cold water electric pressure washer delivering 1,500 PSI at 2.0 GPM, powered by a 2.0 HP Baldor electric motor and equipped with a commercial-grade CP CTE1 P5 triplex pump. Designed for professional cleaning environments where quiet operation, zero emissions, and consistent performance are essential, the PE-1520EW1A is built for long-term use in workshops, commercial kitchens, janitorial operations, detailing bays, manufacturing plants, and any facility where a gas unit is impractical or inappropriate.
Built on the 124 Dealer Frame with powder-coated steel construction and 10" Premium flat-free tires, the PE-1520EW1A is designed for mobility across commercial environments. With a multi-component warranty covering the motor and pump separately, this unit is engineered for sustained commercial performance.
Built for Demanding Commercial Cleaning Environments
Because it runs quietly and produces no exhaust emissions, the PE-1520EW1A is well suited for indoor and noise-sensitive work zones including:
Commercial kitchens and food processing facilities
Manufacturing plants and production floors
Vehicle detailing bays
Indoor janitorial and facilities maintenance
Healthcare and laboratory environments
Any enclosed space where gas engine operation is not permitted
The 1,500 PSI pressure rating provides effective cleaning performance while remaining safe for surfaces where higher pressure could cause damage.
Features
2.0 HP Baldor Electric Motor
At the core of the PE-1520EW1A is a 2.0 HP Baldor electric motor, a name trusted across commercial and industrial equipment for long-lasting, energy-efficient performance. Key motor features include:
Reliable, consistent torque for sustained commercial cleaning
Low noise operation for indoor and noise-sensitive environments
Zero exhaust emissions for use in enclosed or food-safe facilities
120V single-phase power at 17.0 Amps
The PE-1520EW1A requires a NEMA 5-20P plug, which requires a 20-amp outlet. Standard 15-amp circuits will not accept this plug. The power cord is 6.5 ft — operators planning fixed or semi-fixed installations should account for cord reach and have an appropriate extension cord available.
The unit does not include auto start/stop — the motor runs continuously while the unit is powered on, regardless of trigger state. This is standard for commercial direct drive electric pressure washers and should be factored into operation planning.
Electric Direct Drive System
The PE-1520EW1A uses an electric direct drive system that connects the motor directly to the pump. This design minimizes vibration, reduces the number of moving parts compared to belt-driven systems, and provides a compact footprint for use in tight shop floors and storage areas. Direct drive also provides immediate pressure response when the trigger is engaged.
Commercial-Grade CP CTE1 P5 Triplex Pump with Built-In Unloader
Paired with the Baldor motor is a commercial-grade CP CTE1 P5 class triplex pump with built-in unloader. At P5 class, this is a higher pump classification than most gas units in the BE cold water pressure washer range, reflecting the sustained continuous-duty design requirements of a commercial electric unit. Key pump features include:
P5 commercial pump class for sustained high-frequency continuous-duty applications
Built-in unloader that relieves pressure when the trigger is released, protecting the pump and extending service life
Thermal relief valve to prevent pump overheating during extended operation
Consistent, smooth pressure delivery at 1,500 PSI and 2.0 GPM
The PE-1520EW1A uses a fixed injector — detergent is drawn at a fixed rate when the soap nozzle is attached.
124 Dealer Frame with Powder-Coated Steel Construction
The PE-1520EW1A is built on the 124 Dealer Frame, a hand-truck style platform with powder-coated steel construction designed for rugged commercial use. The frame includes integrated accessory storage for the hose, wand, and nozzles, with stabilizing feet for steady operation during use.
25-Foot x 1/4" Single Wire Braided High-Pressure Hose
The included 25' x 1/4" QC single wire braided rubber hose provides durability and extended reach for cleaning across commercial work
