Introduction
Agriculture is the art and science of cultivating the soil, growing crops, and
raising livestock. It includes the preparation of plant and animal products for people to
use and their distribution to markets. Additionally, it provides most of the world’s food
and fabrics. It is also the key development in the rise of sedentary human civilization,
whereby farming of domesticated species created food surpluses that enabled people to
live in cities.
Livestock farming means raising animals for use or pleasure. Efficient and
prosperous animal agriculture historically has been the mark of a strong, well-developed
nation such as agriculture permits nation to store large quantities of grains and other
foodstuffs in concentrated form to be utilized to raise animals for human consumption
during such emergencies as war or natural calamity. Furthermore, meat has long been
known for its high nutritive value, producing stronger, healthier people.
Ras Family has a livestock raising business wherein they raise pigs. The business
highly requires them to ensure the health and condition of their pigs by maintaining the
cleanliness of every fence or pigsties. In the cleaning process, they are using a normal
type of hose for water supply and manually sweep the pigsties’ floor. Aside from it is a
slow and time-consuming process, it also causes high water consumption. In addition,
their materials for cleaning are not that helpful as it needs a lot of effort and energy to
use. From using a hose and sweeping the floor, they have decided to use equipment that
releases a high amount of water pressure. This material was a big help for them because
they don’t need to manually clean the pigsties. Although they already have better
equipment, they are still encountering some problems which are also considered
challenges in their business wherein there's a lot of water wasted and generally, the
cleaning process still takes too much time. Due to this, new processes that will save time
in cleaning pigsties together with a unique improvement in water pressure are necessary
for Ras Family’s business.
This design proposal aims to provide an innovation of pressure washer that can be
used in farming especially in livestock raising. This will be a big help and the best
solution to those who are struggling in the business of raising pigs specifically the Ras
Family. This will also provide an easier and faster way of cleaning pigsties while
reducing water consumption. We intend to answer the following questions:
In this design proposal, we aim to improve the old designed pressure washer to
reduce water usage in livestock farming when used in cleaning processes. The old
designed pressure washer will be innovated by adding a nozzle hose for a faster water
supply in removing animal manure. Aside from adding a nozzle hose, there is also a
switch wherein the user can choose his/her preferred pressure of water supply in the
cleaning process. Additionally, a hose extension will be added to adjust its length for the
user to move well. The last improvement is a stand which is also a big help for the users.
The nozzle hose will be attached to the stand which will serve as the handle of the hose
for an easier way of cleaning fence or pigsties. These improvements intend to give the
best solution and make the product more convenient and helpful in everyday living not
only for Ras Family’s livestock raising business but also for the areas and communities
who also raise livestock at the same time. This newly designed pressure washer will
surely help users in cleaning animal manure while saving not only their time and energy
but also preventing high water consumption.
Design Criteria
The Design Proposal of Pressure Washer should pass the design criteria to be able
to attain its purpose of maximing pressure washer’s performance in cleaning operations
while minimizing water consumption. The design criteria for pressure washer applicable
to design needs are as follows:
SIZE AND WEIGHT - It should be slower revving motor with a larger pump so it
can be used for longer periods without overheating.
In 1926, Frank Woldert II accidentally invented the first pressure washer. He was
working in a garage when he needed to get grease and grime off his garage floor. Since
he was a maker of gas-fired hot water heaters by trade, he used steam to force hot water
through a hose. He realized that the grease and grime cut lose better than ever before. His
invention, however, remained largely unrecognized. It was not until Alfred Kärcher
invented the first high-pressure washer in 1950 that they became a popular tool. Today,
businesses and homeowners can find a variety of types of pressure washers.
Electric pressure washers usually start with the flip of a switch and typically cost less,
run quieter and cleaner, and weigh less than gas models. While they are less portable and
often less powerful than gas-powered models, electric power washers are ideal for light-
and medium-duty jobs, such as cleaning patio furniture, grills, vehicles, siding and decks.

OPERATIONS
Automatic ON/OFF
The motor on this pressure washer does not run continuously. It only runs when
the trigger of the spray gun is squeezed.
It is very important to bleed the gun before using the pressure washer. Squeeze
the trigger to allow any air that is trapped inside of the unit and hose to escape.
Continue to squeeze trigger until a steady stream of water comes from the nozzle.
(This process may take up to 2 minutes).
Flip the lock tab behind the trigger up or down until it clicks to apply or remove
the safety. Pull back on the trigger to begin operating pressure washer. To stop
water flow, release trigger.
When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks can be solved with
water alone, but for most tasks cleaning with detergent allows for more effective
dirt removal.
Rinse with clean water under high pressure. When working on a vertical surface,
rinse from the bottom up, then rinse from the top down to avoid streaking. Hold
the nozzle 6-8 inches away from the work surface at a 45° angle. 2. When you
have finished using the detergent injection system, refill it into fresh water.
Siphon water at low pressure for one minute so that all the detergent is flushed
through the system.
Shutting Down
Turn the switch to the OFF position and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Turn off the water source.
Hold the trigger to release water pressure.
Disconnect the garden hose from the water inlet on the unit.
Disconnect the high-pressure hose connection on the trigger gun handle.
Release the trigger and engage the gun safety lock.
OPERATIONS
Screw the water inlet coupling (3) tight on to the water inlet Note: The inlet filter
(A) must always be fitted in the water inlet pipe to filter out sand, lime stone.
Attach the high pressure hose to the trigger gun and machine. Detach the high
pressure hose by pressing the pawl (A) or button (B).
Water connection
Connecting the water supply pipe .Use a reinforced hose (not supplied) with a
standard connection (ext. diameter: 16mm/int. 12mm, maximum length: 25m).
The trigger gun (1) and lance is affected by a thrust during operation - therefore
always hold it firmly with both hands.
Check that the machine is in upright position
Activate the trigger of the trigger gun (1) and let the water run until all air has
escaped from the water hose.
Press the Start/stop switch (7).
Push lock Push unlock 6 Activate the trigger of the trigger gun (1). Always adjust
the distance and thus the pressure of the nozzle to the surface, which is to be
cleaned.

Manufacturing Processes
structure.
a) Pump
Materials
Cast iron: When looking for electric pumps, the most popular housing
material you'll come across is cast iron. This is frequently due to the fact that
cast iron is a relatively low-cost metal in terms of processing.
Stainless steel: Stainless steel is corrosion resistant, making it a popular choice
for pumps that must handle a variety of non-flammable liquids. When it
comes to garbage, waste, solids, or non-flammable chemicals pumping,
stainless steel housings and driver hardware are commonly used in electrically
driven sump pumps, high capacity centrifugal pumps, and submersible pumps.
Bronze: Bronze (a copper-tin alloy) can offer the best combination of
cavitation resistance, cost, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance for
most non-corrosive pumping jobs, including water, garbage, solids, and other
non-corrosive liquids. Bronze pumps are ideal for use in seawater and warm
water conditions. Brass (a copper and zinc alloy) pumps can be more
corrosive rsistant in some conditions.
Aluminum: Aluminum is a lightweight metal (roughly a third the weight of
steel) that is simple to cast and has good longevity and corrosion resistance.
Aluminum pumps are often useful in applications requiring a highly portable
pump for difficult tasks..

Safety
Pressure washers are dangerous because they require the mixing of water and
electricity. These devices also have power cables, which makes them
vulnerable to breakage. Water must not seep through the cords while you are
dealing with water, as this can cause electric shock and burn. You can also
have a grounded power source because it reduces the risks.
Electric pressure washers can cause an electric shock if you don't follow the
safety instructions.
b) Chemical Tank
Materials
Polyethylene: Polyethylene tanks are solid, durable, and inexpensive, and they
provide value in terms of their longevity and the peace of mind that comes
with knowing that the tank is built specifically for your chemical. Tanks made
of polyethylene are made in a mold, which reduces the possibility of human
error. They also come with a range of options to help protect your chemical,
the atmosphere in which it is stored, and your employees.
Cost
₱ 1000
Safety
These substances can cause health problems if they seep into a puncture,
crack, or wound. The chemicals can also trigger bacterial infections as well as
other health risks if they enter your bloodstream.
c) Agitator
Materials
Mild steel: Mild steel is commonly used in the production of machinery and
automobiles. It is inexpensive, versatile in terms of cutting and coating
methods, and has reasonable weldability while maintaining adequate physical
properties.
Cast iron: Cast iron is a general term for silicon-containing high-carbon iron
alloys. These irons are highly fragile and strong.
Cost
₱ 1,099
Safety
If agitation fails, the reaction will slow or stop, resulting in an accumulation of
unreacted chemicals. For exothermic reactions, this is a serious danger. The
accumulated unreacted material can react very quickly once the agitator is
restarted, and the cooling system may not be able to extract the heat quickly
enough to keep the reactor temperature under control.
Ascertain that operators recognize that if reactor agitation is lost, they should
obtain technical assistance before resuming operation. Inquire about the length
of time the agitator was turned off, what was applied to the vessel when it was
turned off, the vessel's temperature and pressure history, and so on.
d) Air Chamber
Materials
Vulcanized rubber is used in higher-quality air chambers, which are covered
in canvas or polyurethane and have a cloth shell or tick (ing).
Cost
₱ 464
Safety
Make sure to install a relief valve close to the pump. Particularly when a cut-
off valve is established on the pipe, absolutely open it earlier than turning at
the pump. Be careful no longer to exceed the most working pressure. Do not
place pipes at once on the floor in cold areas. Maintain pipes, pumps, and air
chambers warm in places in which they are in all likelihood to freeze,
including the outdoors. Do not use an air chamber in direct daylight. This is
necessary to prevent extraordinary temperature rise (in metal products) and to
keep away from the impact of ultraviolet rays (on PVC products).
e) Pressure Gauge
(water, air, oil, etc). The tubing wall thickness and radius of curvature define the
pressure range of the tubes. Since exceeding the elastic limit will destroy the tube and
cause precision to be lost, instrument designers must use precise design and material
selection. The assembly is enclosed in a case and viewing lens to shield the Bourdon
tube and movement. Nearly all simple metals, glass, and plastics are used to make a
dial and pointer, which are used to provide the viewer with the pressure indication.
Materials
Gauge cases and dials are made of aluminum, brass, and steel, as well as
polycarbonate and polypropylene.
The majority of lenses are made of polycarbonate or acrylic, which is
preferred over glass for obvious reasons of protection.
The case is sealed and packed with glycerine or silicone fluid for extreme
service applications. This fluid protects the tube and the movement from
damage caused by impact and vibration.
Cost
₱ 549.56
Safety
Extreme Temperatures: Hot processes and high ambient temperatures can
damage the pressure gauge if temperature limits are exceeded. Alternatively,
very cold environments can cause process fluids to freeze within the Bourdon
tube and glass screens to crack or break.
Corrosion: Harsh processes may lead to corrosion of the Bourdon tube,
causing leakage which would result in dangerous process fluid escaping into
the environment.
Vibration and Pulsation: Pipeline vibration is one of the most common causes
of mechanical gauge failure and can make it difficult to correctly read a
pressure gauge. Additionally, process pulsations can degrade gauge
components, resulting in device malfunction.
Overpressure: Overpressure events can permanently damage mechanical
pressure gauges and pose serious safety risks. Often the first indication of
overpressure is that a gauge reads inaccurately due to a warped Bourdon tube.
If pressures continue to rise, the Bourdon tube may rupture, resulting in a leak
point, which can expose personnel to hazardous process fluids.
f) Valves
A valve is a device that regulates the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized
solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways.
Cut-off valve is provided in the delivery line to control the flow from the pump. By-
pass valve is provided in the delivery line to by-pass the flow from pump to tank
when flow in delivery line is reduced than the pump capacity. Relief valve is an
Materials
Valve materials are selected for both durability (long-term operation) and
compatibility with the gas being handled. Valve plates are available in various
types of stainless steels and thermoplastics. Other super alloys, such as
Elgiloy and Haynes 25, are being used to avoid hydrogen embrittlement for
springs.
Cost
₱ 450
Safety
Since all gate, globe, and check valves are pressure devices, the proper safety
precautions must be taken.
Any changes to the valves and documents without prior approval from
Modentic and formal documentation are not allowed and could pose a
significant risk.
All valves are intended to be used within the parameters set forth herein and
on the valve body. Excessive use of these limitations is considered abuse and
can result in severe injury as well as harm to the installation and the
environment.
Proper eye, head, and whole-body safety, as well as protective clothing,
should always be worn while staff are maintaining a valve. The most
important thing is to avoid injuring staff or causing harm to facilities.
At the installation site, all of the valves should be in the open place.
If a (dangerous) pressurized fluid or gas becomes stuck in the cavity of the
valve, ensure that it is safely released by partially opening the valve.
When operating the valves at low or high temperatures, operating staff must
exercise extreme caution to prevent injury.
The valve body may have a higher rating than the seat. The ambient or
operating conditions may cause the valve surface temperature to become
extremely hot or cold. Avoid any direct interaction with the valve that may
endanger the staff.
Valves and attachments should not be used to carry piping or human weight
on their own.
The machine designer is responsible for safety accessories such as safety
relief (overpressure) valves.
In high-temperature systems, it is the user's/system designer's duty to use
insulation.
Do not disassemble the actuator when it is under pressure; otherwise, the
warranty would be voided due to improper disassembly.
g) Strainer
Materials
stainless steel
Cost
₱ 185
Safety
The strainer is not designed to bear any kind of external load. Never stand on
or place anything heavy on the strainer at any time. The strainer should be
installed at place where space for periodic inspection and maintenance is
sufficient.
h) Nozzle
Materials
Brass
Cost
₱ 549
Safety
Always begin with a lower pressure nozzle such as the 40 or 25-degree. Begin
spraying at least 18 – 24 inches from the surface, and test on a small,
inconspicuous area. If it’s not removing dirt, gradually move closer, and if it’s
still not removing dirt at 6 inches from the surface, then choose a smaller
angle nozzle, such as the 25 or 15-degree. To minimize surface damage,
always use the lowest-pressure nozzle that will do the job. If you need a
stronger spray, adjust distance first, then switch nozzles if needed.
i) Spray gun
Materials
brass, plastics
Cost
₱ 599
Safety
Repair any obvious defects before using it again. Keep the gun clean.
Correspondingly, if a spray gun begins to function erratically or in any way
out of the norm, stop using it until the source of the problem can be identified
and corrected. If the spray gun should ever leak, stop using it immediately and
locate the source of the leak. Usually the cause is a damaged O-ring. Never
use your hand to stop any leaks as the high pressure water can cause a serious
injury.

Materials
304 Stainless Steel
Characteristics
The Bionic Steel Pro Garden Hose is one of the toughest hoses on the market,
capable of withstanding 500 psi of pressure. It's also long-lasting and solid.
Advantages
Lightweight and Compact design: The Bionic Steel Pro Garden Hose is overly
lightweight and compact, despite its rugged stainless steel construction. The
largest size weighs just less than 7 pounds, making it ideal for all gardening
activities. Gardening activities are often accessible to homeowners with
limited physical ability, the elderly, and children. It is very convenient to store
it after use due to its compact size.
Tough and Sturdy: The Bionic Steel Pro Garden Hose is constructed of 304-
stainless steel and is designed to last. It can be pulled through barbed wire,
rolled over a vehicle, and subjected to other abrasive treatment without
sustaining damage. It is appropriate for both basic and complicated gardening
activities. Still, the hose has crush-resistant solid brass fittings and a stabilizer
collar that is designed to withstand intense forces.
Heat Resistant - One of the most significant benefits of metal garden hoses is
their heat resistance. The Bionic Steel Pro Garden Hose can be used even
when fully engulfed by fire. The heat resistance of this garden hose is ideal for
homeowners who live in hot climates and are tired of using rubber hoses that
melt or overheat when left in the sun.
Ice-resistant - The Bionic Steel Pro Garden Hose is also ice-resistant, allowing
it to survive being encased in a block of ice. Even after being exposed to
freezing temperatures, it remains completely functional and unharmed. This
makes it ideal for use in places where winters are harsh, and it removes the
worry of leaving your garden hose outdoors in such conditions.
Materials
polyethylene, resin
Characteristics
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is a high-density polyethylene made by
converting a thermoplastic resin into a thermoset by adding a catalyst. A covalent
bond is formed between the molecules as a result of the catalyst. Consider a chain-
link fence, where the metal is actually linked. The result is a plastic with improved
impact resistance, tensile strength, and crack resistance, making cross-linked
polyethylene an excellent option when tank integrity is critical. Chemical and heat
resistance, as well as dimensional stability, are unrivaled.
Advantages
Strength in safety: They are much safer and more strong. The tank system
would not break or unzip catastrophically as high-density linear polyethylene
tanks do due to the molecular bonding of the polymers inside it. XLPE tanks
are designed to provide the highest level of employee safety and
environmental protection currently available.
Cost: XLPE tanks are one of the most cost-effective options available.
Although the initial cost is marginally higher than linear polyethylene tanks,
the life cycle costs are significantly lower. Cross-linked tanks are less costly
than other types of tanks because they have a longer operational life and need
less maintenance.
Durability: XLPE storage tanks are leak-proof because they are molded in one
piece (monolithic) and have no seams. The cross-linked resin can withstand
even the most aggressive chemicals.
Longevity: Cross-linked polyethylene storage tanks have a longer useful life
than linear and fiberglass tanks, often reaching two decades.
Materials
Polyester & Polyester Blend
Characteristics
The LAMINET Garden Hose Storage Bag is just 5.3 ounces in weight. It
measures 18.5 x 18.5 x 6.5 inches in size. Eventually, it has a ventilated window that
allows you to air-dry your hose for summer use.
Advantages
Cost: It is budget friendly.
Improves Efficiency: You can easily access your hose since it is placed in a
hose reel in a very structured manner. It can also put anywhere so that, it is
easily accessible.
Ensure the Safety of the Garden: it helps to avoid being slipped on hose in a
garden or in any outward area if it is disorganized.
Reduce Leakage and Damage: Nothing is more critical than being able to
profit from using a commodity. It will help in saving money by preventing
damage and leakage to the hose.
Protect the Hose: Allows to shield hose from both extreme weather and UV
light. Even on the hottest summer days and the coldest winter days, hose will
be covered. Furthermore, rats and rabbits are unable to eat or harm the hose.
Concept-Design Sketches
The innovated design of pressure washer will have better usage and functions
making it more efficient, easier, and faster in the process that will satisfy and fulfill our
main objective which is to minimize or reduce water consumption while maximizing the
performance in cleaning livestock manure. In this product improvement, we came up
with changing some of its structures and materials considering the properties, function,
and characteristics.
High-power with multi-spray nozzle vers. 2.0 is the improved part in the pressure
washer providing a high-pressure water supply for an easier and faster way of cleaning
livestock manure. We came up with this improvement as we noticed that the process of
cleaning livestock manure takes too much time and has high water consumption.
Furthermore, the materials used which is a normal type of hose having a standard water
supply waste a lot of water. This high-technological new version of hose has better
performance and is made from high-quality materials making it more convenient to use in
cleaning processes. With the help of this, cleaning livestock manure can be done in a
short period of time supplying the right amount of water depending on preferred pressure.
The basis of its design structure is a typical mop and vacuum cleaner; these
materials/objects serve as our guide in improving water hose and nozzle in the pressure
washer. The stand and head were changed. The structure of a vacuum cleaner is the first
one we considered wherein a water sprayer can be installed inside it. Unfortunately,
installation could be difficult due to its horizontal alignment. Due to this, we changed the
head into a circle one to be more accurate and convenient. The circle-shaped head allows
it to easily attach to different types of water sprayer which can be used for different
purposes and it can be easily removed or change by rotating the head. The way the nozzle
attached to the stand also changed.
The high-power with multi-spray nozzle vers. 2.0 consist of different parts: nozzle,
handle/stand holder and hose.
Nozzle
There is a water spray with different holes that can be utilized for its purpose. It can
be bent according to the designated angle. The nozzle can be rotated according to its
usage and distance.
Handle/Stand Holder
There are three layers of length. It can be extended according to the distance of the
area where water spray will be used. The extension is locked to tighten the adjusted
handle.
There is an adequate measurement of how close and far the hose can reach. A new
hose can be attached to provide an extension if the main or existing hose connected to the
water containers/tanks has insufficient length. There is sufficient width, thickness, and
suitable materials to prevent damages and convenient to use for daily cleaning of the
fence or pigsties.
Accessories
There is a container to for an easier way of removing the hose. There are different
hoses available to use based on the distance and length. It can be connected to the main
hose to the water sprayer, and different colors are applicable to use. There is a bag for
carrying a set of design products that we innovated. It can be used not only for cleaning
the pigsties but also for gardening and other house cleaning operations in agriculture,
especially for plants and animals.
