Ryobi Electrostatic Sprayer Line Offers Multiple Cordless Options for Convenient Dispersal
Each member of the Ryobi 18V Cordless Electrostatic Sprayer line uses battery power to positively charge your cleaner and disinfectant particles. Why do you need positively charged particles, you might ask?
Because your charged-up cleaner particles deliver better coverage than what your old sprayer can deliver. Coupled with the convenient and portable size of these sprayers, Ryobi designed them to be your new go-to solution for fast, effective spraying jobs.
All of these electrostatic sprayers run on Ryobi’s 18V One+ batteries.
Electrostatic vs Traditional Spraying
Each Ryobi 18V Cordless Electrostatic Sprayer has a leg up on traditional sprayers on account of its ability to cover the whole surface of whatever you’re spraying. The electrostatic spraying charges the particles creating a good kind of “static cling”. This makes the particles adhere better and more completely to the surfaces you spray.
As seen in the above image, your traditional sprayer fires off cleaning solutions in a wide cone. You’ll hit what you mean to, but you’ll also spray down things around it, and you could be more efficient in your application.
With electrostatically charged spraying, you get a more directed spray with coverage that surrounds your target. This ups your spraying efficiency, saving you time and materials. While cleaning with disinfectants might be the most popular today, they’re also effective for most lawn and garden chemicals.
Ryobi PSP02K Electrostatic Sprayer Kit |Handheld Cordless
This one is for quick and convenient spraying of disinfectants, cleaners, and deodorizers, particularly when large quantities aren’t necessarily in order. The PSP02K features a 1-liter translucent tank that helps keep this electrostatic sprayer light and maneuverable. It’s compatible with larger tanks if you find yourself on a job where greater capacity helps you out.
With the kitted 2.0Ah battery, the Ryobi PSP02K can run through up to 60 tanks per charge. Doing some quick conversion, that’s an almost-16-gallon runtime.
You also have options when it comes to coverage and spray distance. A 3-in-1 adjustable nozzle selector with tool-free nozzle turret lets you pick your setting quickly. You can select 50-, 75-, and 100-micron size droplets. The PSP02K can spray up to 5 feet away.
