Different animals. The Duplex is designed to pick up fluid from hard surface flooring as it collects the fluid across the rubber drum. Cool idea. It works reasonably well too.
The BrushEncap machine is not designed to pick up fluid. Instead it can pick up dry soil. By attaching the Renovator trays and you have a dry soil extraction machine. Remove the Renovator trays and it's a straight Encap Scrubber. It can also be used for scrubbing carpet with dry absorbent powder detergent. And with the Renovator trays the BrushEncap can recover the soil laden powder from the carpet (although that may not capture all of the damp clumps).
