Polivac Predator MK2 Carpet Extractor
Professional Power in a Portable Carpet Extractor
The Polivac Predator MK2 Carpet Extractor delivers a fully featured portable carpet extraction machine with legendary durability and compact design. Made in Australia, these units provide more power than machines twice their size. Spring-mounted vacuum motors ensure quiet, vibration-free operation, and the slimline design enhances portability.
It comes complete with a 7.5m solution hose, 7.5m vacuum hose, and a 12″ 4-jet stainless steel wand to handle diverse cleaning tasks. An optional 15m hose is available.
What is the difference from the Polivac Predator MK1 Carpet Extractor?
The key difference between the Predator MK1 and MK2 lies in their pump and vacuum configurations. The MK1 is equipped with an 600 PSI pump (factory set around 500 PSI) and twin 1,100 W 2-stage vacuum motors, making it a powerful yet compact option. The MK2, by contrast, features a HYPRO pump rated up to 2,000 PSI (factory set around 350 PSI with a maximum working pressure of about 450 PSI) and twin 1,100 W 3-stage vacuum motors, delivering stronger suction and greater performance headroom. The MK2 is slightly heavier at 55 kg and has a 42 L recovery tank compared to the MKI’s 50 L.
