Cylinder volume
The volume of one cylinder in an internal combustion engine installed in a sprayer. In fact, we are talking about the working volume of the entire engine, because. in this technique, only single-cylinder internal combustion engines are used.
In general, a large cylinder volume allows you to achieve high power, but power also depends on some engine characteristics (primarily the type of internal combustion engine, see above). And the performance characteristics of the sprayers themselves with the same engine power can also be different. But what directly depends on the volume of the engine is fuel consumption: a larger volume, usually, requires more fuel.
Power
Engine power of the gasoline sprayer (see "Type") in horsepower.
Power directly affects the spraying range and the performance of the unit, according to this indicator, it is quite possible to assess the overall level of the device. However note that manufacturers can indicate this characteristic in different ways: some give the rated power (when the engine is running in normal mode), others give the maximum power (at peak load). Therefore, when choosing and comparing, it is worth considering not only this indicator, but also other basic characteristics.
As for horsepower, this unit is traditionally used to assess the power of an internal combustion engine. 1 HP approximately equal to 735 watts.
Power
Sprayer engine power in kilowatts. Watt (kilowatt) is a universal unit used for all types of engines, but in fact this parameter is indicated mainly for gasoline units (see "Type"). This is due to the fact that electric sprayers — even the most powerful and heavy ones — consume less than 1 kW, which does not create any problems with connecting to a conventional outlet; so for such units there is no need to specify engine power.

As for specific figures, in the most modest models this figure
does not exceed 1 kW ;
1.1 – 2 kW can be called the average value; and many gasoline sprayers are equipped with motors and
more than 2 kW.
Weight
The total weight of the sprayer. Specified without taking into account the liquid or powder in the working tank; at the same time, for battery models (see “Type”), usually, the weight is given with a complete battery, and for gasoline models, on the contrary, “dry” weight, without fuel in the tank.
