what are specs on a simpson pressure washer pump?
Answers:
You have a 2200 PSI "pounds per square inch" pressure washer. It all depends on the pump manufacturer as to how many GPM your pump can push. It could be as low as 2.0 or as high as 4.5 GPM. One example of a CAT pump is this setup,Cat Pump, 2200 psi, 4.2 GPM, 900 PSI operating pressure. This may or may not be your pump. A Simpson name brand is just that, a name brand. Although Simpson used to make the best washers in the USA, the industry has moved to cheaper and cheaper garbage from China.
My Simpson has a plate on the left side. Mine also has a CAT pump on it and you can get the Model numbers off the pump and look it up on the CAT/Caterpillar web site.

Gallons per minute isn't really a factor when pressure washing, it is more the P.S.I. (#'s per sq. inch) that you want to look at. Yours is 2200 P.S.I. at a 0 degree tip (the most concentrated tip).
My guess is your #6 tip is your 0 degree.
