The Active™ 2.3 Electric Pressure Washer Premium Kit is the Active 2.3 machine boxed with Active's own premium accessories, ready to wash and snow foam (Active code AP-SE14UK(02)/H75EU). Active says the accessory set was developed using customer feedback and expert guidance, and the gun, lance, hose and foam cannon all use fully machined 304 stainless steel fittings.
Active built the 2.3 from its work on the Active 2.0 for the professional consumer. An updated brass endplate 5-Piston Pro Pump and a 128 induction motor give 2.3 GPM at 1100 PSI working pressure, 1500 PSI peak, and Active quotes a combined output of 2,500 cleaning units. The machine is serviceable and rebuildable. Want the machine on its own? See the Active 2.3 Electric Pressure Washer. A lighter set is the Active 2.3 Standard Pro Kit.
What is in the Premium Kit
-
Active 2.3 Electric Pressure Washer: the machine, with its brass endplate 5-Piston Pro Pump and 128 induction motor.
-
M22-14mm to 3/8 adaptor: joins the machine's M22-14mm outlet to the 3/8 quick connect system of the kit hose.
-
Active 50 ft steel braided hose, 5/16": about 15 m of real rubber hose with steel braiding. Active chose the 5/16" size as the balance between the light weight of a 1/4" hose and the durability of a 3/8" hose. Fully machined 304 stainless steel quick connects with a 3/8" male plug and a female quick connect. Active rates its 50 ft hose to 4000 PSI and 12 GPM, at up to 212°F (100°C).
-
Active swivel gun: fully machined 304 stainless steel quick connects and an integrated internal swivel connection, a valve with a solid brass body and a stainless metal rod, a low-profile angle, a rubber grip and a low-force trigger. Rated to 5000 PSI and 12 GPM, at up to 300°F (149°C).
-
Active foam cannon: a fully machined 304 stainless steel quick nozzle head with adjustment for foam consistency, angle and pattern, on a leak-free 1000ml bottle with a flexible tube and a stainless steel weight ball. Rated to 4000 PSI and 4 GPM, at up to 140°F (60°C).
-
Active 20° bent lance: fully machined 304 stainless steel with integrated quick connects, a 1/4" male inlet and a 1/4" female outlet, in a nylon casing that makes it easier to manoeuvre around hard to reach areas. 20.5 inches (about 52 cm) long, rated to 5000 PSI and 12 GPM.

Good to know
- Active supplies a 4.6 size orifice to keep the current draw under 15A, and warns that any other orifice must not take the draw above 15A, or the microswitch and capacitor can be damaged.
- Active strongly recommends steel braided hoses for proper operation.
- Keep the inlet water at 40°C or below, and squeeze the trigger to purge air before switching on.
HQ Suggests (Tips & Insights)
- 💡 Water flow is often more important than headline PSI figures for detailing work.
- 💡 Use filtered water where possible to reduce mineral build-up inside the pump.
