Proventa PVX-45 Flood Extractor
The Proventa PVX-45 is a flood extraction machine for recovering water from carpet, underlay and compatible hard surfaces. Twin 1100 W AMETEK motors feed a 45 L nominal recovery tank, while standard automatic pump-out lets technicians discharge recovered water during monitored operation.
Machine only: extraction hose, wand/tool and discharge hose are not included.
Overview
Water extraction machine for flood restoration
The Proventa PVX-45 Flood Extractor is Restoration Warehouse’s industrial water extractor for professional flood recovery. Use it to remove standing water and draw moisture from saturated surfaces before structural drying begins. Connect a 51 mm (2 in.) extraction hose and a tool suited to the surface to recover water from carpet, underlay, upholstery and compatible hard surfaces.
Two independently switched 1100 W AMETEK vacuum motors let the operator run one or both motors. Recovered water passes through a removable debris basket into the 45 L nominal tank. The PVX-45 is an extraction-only machine: rinsing water, cleaning solution or pressure must come from separate equipment.
Automatic pump-out fitted as standard
The level-controlled pump discharges through a DN20 (3/4 in.) Camlock outlet with a check valve and cap. Pump-out flow is up to 45 L/min under favourable conditions; lift, hose length, restrictions and debris reduce flow. This is the discharge pump’s capacity, not the vacuum extraction rate. A capped side drain hose also allows manual emptying.
On the job
- Tank protection: a high-level float restricts airflow as the tank fills. Monitor suction and foam throughout use; usable tank volume depends on the basket and float level.
- Handling: large rear wheels, front swivel castors and integrated handles help position the rotomoulded polyethylene machine on suitable surfaces.
- Clean-up: the removable basket and accessible tank make it easier to empty, rinse and dry the machine after each job.
What’s included
One PVX-45 with automatic pump-out and a detachable 5 m earthed AU/NZ power lead. This is a machine-only offer. Extraction hose, wand or extraction tool, and pump-out discharge hose are not included.
