The Razorback TractX 12Gal Dual 5.7" 500 PSI Instant Heat Carpet Extractor is the twin-motor version of CCW's flagship TractX portable for carpet and upholstery cleaning. It pairs the same adjustable 50–500 PSI Pumptec pump and 2000 watt in-line Instant Heat system with two 5.7" vacuum motors instead of a single 6.6" motor.
Why twin motors? Redundancy. If a vacuum motor fails mid-week, the day's work still gets done on the remaining motor — a genuine consideration for operators whose schedule can't absorb downtime. The twin 5.7" setup delivers the same airflow and water lift (up to 205") as the single 6.6" version, which draws slightly less power for the same performance; choose between them on redundancy versus efficiency.
Key features
- Two 5.7" vacuum motors provide built-in redundancy: a motor failure doesn't end the day's work.
- Pumptec solution pump adjustable between 50 and 500 PSI, covering delicate upholstery through to heavy flushing on soiled carpet with one machine.
- In-line heater delivers instant heat, extracting with 93°C (200°F) solution with no wait for a tank to heat.
- Powerful vacuum motors offer up to 205" water lift for efficient solution recovery that results in better extraction and faster carpet drying.
- High-performance motors stay cool with an innovative air intake design that uses the vacuum's own cooling fans to pull cool, outside air over the motors, reducing motor temperature and preventing overheating.
- 46 litre (12 gallon) solution and recovery tanks allow for quick and easy fill and dump disposal, reducing downtime.
- Roto-moulded polyethylene tanks withstand the toughest working environments and resist dents, chips, and cracks.
- Waist-high controls prevent bending and stooping to operate the machine. The controls are recessed in the machine and stay protected during use, in transit, or in storage.
- 250mm (10") non-skid, non-marking wheels make stair climbing easy and do not scuff floors.
Who this machine suits
This machine is for operators who want the flagship 500 PSI Instant Heat package and prefer the security of two vacuum motors. Solo operators and small crews booked solid are the classic buyers: when the week's schedule has no slack, a machine that keeps working after a motor failure pays for itself. For tile and grout work, look instead at the TractX 1200 PSI Tile & Grout machine; this model is built for carpet and fabric.
Power and electrical requirements
This is an instant-heat machine, and the 230V 50Hz Australian version requires two separate 10 amp circuits: one dedicated to the in-line heater, and a second for the pump and vacuum motors. Plan for the full 20 amps on site. Confirm two available 10 amp circuits before starting a job, as running the heater and motors from a single circuit is not supported and will trip standard household protection. Normally the kitchen and laundry are wired on separate circuits.

Accessories to pair with this machine
This listing is for the machine only. Because it includes an in-line heater, Sandia's accessory literature recommends fitting heated machines with a stainless-steel hand tool rather than a standard alloy tool, to handle heated solution safely. Contact CCW for compatible hose sets, wands, and stainless-steel tool options for this model.
Technician's note
Some operators simply prefer having two motors: if they lose a motor, they can still get the day's work done on one vac motor, and that peace of mind is what this machine sells. Note the single 6.6" version draws slightly less power for the same airflow and lift, so if maximum efficiency matters more than redundancy, compare the two before you buy. Like all Instant Heat TractX models, it needs two separate 10 amp circuits on site.
Frequently asked questions
Why choose twin motors over the single 6.6" version?
Redundancy. If one vacuum motor fails, the machine keeps working on the other, so the day's schedule survives. The single 6.6" version delivers the same airflow and water lift while drawing slightly less power, so the choice comes down to redundancy versus efficiency.
Can this machine run from a standard single power point?
No. It needs two separate 10 amp circuits, one for the heater and one for the pump and vacuum motors. Confirm this power arrangement is available on site before booking a job that relies on instant heat.
Can I adjust the solution pressure?
Yes. The Pumptec pump is adjustable between 50 and 500 PSI, so you can turn pressure right down for upholstery and delicate fabrics and all the way up for deep flushing on soiled carpet.
What is covered under warranty?
CCW's warranty on this machine covers the body for life, the vacuum motors for 2 years, the pump for 1 year, all electrical components for 1 year, and tools and accessories for 90 days.
