Poseidon 5 Series
The silent and efficient cold-water, high-pressure washer

The Always Dependable,
Silent Partner
A reliable and durable pressure washer offering low noise level
The most efficient and silent worker
in your company...
Not only does the Poseidon 5 Series offer a
major reduction in noise pollution, it also offers
high performance levels and cleaning efficiency.
Accessories make the Poseidon 5 Series an even
more effective and reliable work partner.
Detergent Dosing
The detergent-dosing system is
simple, thanks to a large and
clearly visible dosing button.
The system also offers pre-
cise detergent concentration
adjustment.
Sturdy Frame
The Poseidon 5 Series is mount-
ed on a sturdy and durable
11/4” steel frame with lifting
handles located on the front
and sides.
Optimal Stability
The Poseidon5 Series is stable
and easy to transport with two
large, wide wheels, shock absorb-
ers and two resting feet. The
features ensure optimal stabil-
ity, good ground clearance and
maneuverability over uneven
ground and stairs.
Easy-to-Use
We have focused on making installation, preparation and use of the POSEIDON 5
Series as easy and quick as possible. All control and installation elements--such
as the on/off switch, detergent regulation, pressure/flow regulation and cou-
plings--are situated in one area, making life much easier. No time wasted; just
jump right in to cleaning.

Quality evolution is
the force behind the
Poseidon 5 Series
The new generation of ALTO NP5 motor-pump
units is specifically developed to suit the
professional market. The units offer cost-
effective performance, durability and low
noise levels. No compromises were made in
the construction of components or systems:
• Totally Enclosed, Fan-Cooled (TEFC), 1750-
rpm, slow-running motor results in a more-
than-50-percent reduction in noise, and
resists corrosion even in ammonia-rich envi-
ronments
• Full ceramic piston sleeves with high
resistance to wear and tear
• Brass pump head and reinforced cylinder
heads for longer life
• Tapered roller bearings capable of carrying
twice the load of normal bearing systems
• Closed oil system with easy filling and empty-
ing capabilities; includes oil sight glass
• Patented unloader valve
• Automatic Start/Stop Feature
• Extremely efficient, stainless-steel Tornado
lance
• KEW accessories
And of course, the entire motor-pump unit
is manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001
quality control, living up to traditional ALTO
standards.
Storage Capacity
Equipment storage on the
Poseidon 5 Series makes opera-
tion a breeze. An optional hose
reel protects the hose from dam-
age; two lances can be snapped
on to the machine, and there are
storage hooks to coil the electri-
cal cord. (Hose Reel Part Number
301001310)
Pressure Regulation
Some applications like drain clean-
ing and cleaning of fragile surfaces
may require lower levels of pressure
and water flow. To ensure that the
Poseidon5 Series can be adapted to
specific cleaning requirements, it is
equipped with a large and easy-to-use
knob to regulate pressure and flow
directly at the pump.
