Power packs - Auxiliary engine or Hydrostatic

Sweepgear options - Centre brushes, channel brushes, side sliding units, rotatilt functions, etc.

High pressure water systems - Standard systems up to 300 bar and flows up to 200 litres with a vast array of spray bar options.

Front equipment - Fixed, pivoting and side sliding front brushes, scraper bars, tunnel washing equipment, detergent spray bars, etc.

Full width suction - between or behind the rear axle.

Additional options - Autolube systems, cameras, fuel tanks, rear and top mounted wanderhoses.

Hopper modules

With a choice of materials and capacities, the hopper is the starting point for the sweeper specification. Each hopper is made up of 3 primary parts - the engine cowl, the hopper body and the integral water tanks. Other features include, a rear screen shaker, inspection hatch ladder, beacons, single colour paint finish on the exterior of the hopper, dirt inlet to the hopper via replaceable rubber coated wear plates, marker lights, marker boards and the safety prop.

Water tank modules

The S range has 2 linked water tanks located either side of the hopper for optimum weight distribution and balance. An additional water tank inside the hopper can be either 600 or 1000 litres and an external water tank can be installed between the cab and the hopper. Tanks can be produced from normal steel (internally painted with a special marine coating) or stainless steel, type 1.4301 (304) or 1.4401 (316).

Power pack modules

The power pack uses a choice of Mercedes auxiliary engines with power ratings up to 205kW. Power is transmitted to the dynamically balanced fan via a belt drive system and fluid flywheel. The S range
is designed to deliver exceptional performance at very low engine rpm keeping noise and fuel consumption to a minimum.

Hydrostatic transmission - for ultimate speed control from 0 km/h, we offer a hydrostatic transmission, driven from the chassis engine. This transmission can also be used to power the entire sweeper washer function from the chassis engine.

Sweep gear options

Designed to withstand the most arduous conditions, we offer a wide range of sweeping equipment to suit all application needs. Below are example layouts although most machines are designed and built to customers' specific requirements and application needs.

High pressure water system modules

A wide range of high pressure systems is available up to 300bar @ 100 l/min. Water may be applied to the road surface through a selection of spray bars via either V jets or, for deep cleansing, rotary jets.

Detergent options

Detergent system options for grease and oil spill removal. Front mounted detergent spray bar for stand-alone dispersal. Variable dosing system to control the dilution of the detergent by mixing with water.

Full width suction nozzle

Rear or mid mounted, the full width suction unit features two articulated rubber-lined nozzles which, in combination with a choice of high pressure water systems, offers optimum surface cleansing increasing surface friction levels and providing safer driving conditions. Side suction pods minimise the spill of water.
