VT550
Tough to beat and built for heavy-duty urban performance, the Johnston VT550 delivers the highest payload in its class. Because it's mounted on a 7,500kg GVM chassis, drivers with flexible standard licences can operate the VT550 so you can use your existing workforce, for minimum downtime and maximum performance.
On-board water is positioned over the rear wheels, eliminating weight transfer between axles during operation and allowing for maximum overload-free use of front axle payload, plus safer all-round handling.
Sweeping equipment is powered by a 3-litre, 330Nm torque VM auxiliary engine matched to a hydraulically-driven fan, generating maximum suction independent of chassis requirements. With no added gearboxes or intrusions into the standard chassis, plus lower fuel consumption and operating costs, the VT delivers superior efficiency all-round - with high residual value, too.
The extra-large 5.5m3 stainless steel body incorporates a 980-litre water tank, for maximum on-station time. For superior suction performance, the heavy-duty 800mm diameter WearsafR fan is driven by a load-sensing pump that automatically adjusts fan speed to deliver airflow and suction pressure to match sweeping demands, with minimum noise emissions and fuel consumption.
Easily accessible state-of-the-art CANbus controls on the centre console include electrical diagnostics (including intermittent fault diagnosis) for rapid rectification.
With the backing of Johnston's unparalleled worldwide after-sales service, make the VT550 your ultimate choice for a tough urban sweeper that delivers heavy-duty performance and a heavy duty payload - without the need for a heavy-duty licence!
