HydroDuty Testing
Chemical Wash Life Test Station (Testing "Torture Chamber") our "apples to apples" test to measure life performance vs. other manufacturers washdown motors.
The Test Station consists of:
- Automatic Washer
- High Pressure Spray
- Chemical Solutions
The test simulates washdown procedures and provides head-to-head testing against competitors.

How does HydroDuty compare to the competition?
In tests of competitors' washdown motors, we have found that most fail between 20 - 40 cycles. In no case has a competitor motor lasted more than 10% of the life of a HydroDuty motor.
"Torture Test" Comparison One Cycle = One Day of Plant Service

The HydroDuty motor has surpassed 1900 machine cycles, representing more than 5 years in a food processing application!
Field Trials
- HydroDuty's prototype is still running after 4.5 years in applications where competition lasted less than 3 months
