The E.H. Wachs Pow-R-Drive 2 (P-2) is a portable, handheld heavy-duty power tool designed to safe-operate and exercise water, wastewater, and refinery valves. It helps municipal crews, water utilities, and fire departments operate larger valves efficiently while preventing worker repetitive-motion or back injuries.

Key Technical Specifications

* Drive Mechanics: Built with a 1-inch square drive hub to interface directly with standard telescoping valve keys or AWWA 2-inch sockets.
* Power Supply: Utilizes a standard 110V 60Hz electrical hookup with built-in Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) and overload protection.
* Tracking & Control: Includes an LCD revolution counter providing automatic forward/reverse turn readings for accurate logging.
* Safety Integration: Features VITALS software for advanced electronic torque control to prevent over-torquing and breaking valve stems.

Core Product Models

* High Speed (HS) Model (Part #11-000-17): Operates at 5-10 RPM with a maximum torque of 500 ft/lbs. Ideal for large valves requiring hundreds of turns.
* High Torque (HT) Model (Part #11-000-12): Operates at 3-6 RPM with a max torque of 800 ft/lbs. Engineered to crack open stubborn, stiff, or frozen valves.

Common Applications

* Buried Water Gate Valves: Used with extension keys for below-grade water infrastructure.
* Fire Prevention & Refineries: Ideal for Post Indicator Valves (PIV).
* Handwheel Valves: Operates non-rising stem handwheels using an optional Universal Handwheel Adapter.
