ROAD SWEEPING

 

Mounted to the subframe, the hydraulically operated sweeping system is designed to prolong the life of the brush and reduces the cost of ownership. Both channel and wide-sweep brush installations feature quick-change mechanisms which reduce downtime between changeovers. With a heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant stainless steel body, Rubicon's Sweeping Machine is robustly built for unrivalled durability.

 

All sweeping operations are controlled from the master module inside the cab, while all critical systems controls - including the master circuit breaker plus the valves and auxiliary equipment for the pneumatic, hydraulic and water systems - are housed in a purpose built, dust and weatherproof locker.

 

The Sweeping Machine comes with an optional water recirculation system that recycles excess water in the body space into the suction nozzle. This conserves water, reduces dust emissions and extends on-station time. There is even an option of a high power auxiliary engine which further reduces emissions.

LITTASNATCH: Specially developed to pick up light litter from pavements and hedgerows. With a lightweight, easy to operate flexible hose and nozzle, it can reach up to 7 metres.
SUPAWASH: A high pressure water system for faster cleaning of gulleys and drains using a hose and hand lance. Water can also be diverted to a front-mounted full-width spray bar or suction nozzle to help remove stubborn road debris.
POWASCRUB: This wide sweep brush ground pressure device enables the extra scarifaction of compacted debris.
LOAD DE-WATERING: With increases in waste tipping charges, this option ensures that you only pay for waste volume, not unnecessary water volume.
WATER RE-CIRCULATION: This significantly increases sweeping productivity by allowing greater distances to be swept before the tank needs to be refilled.
REAR MESH SHAKERS: A fast and effective method of clearing damp paper and leaves from suction meshes.
HIGH POWER AUXILIARY ENGINE: With extended service intervals for reduced downtime and greater vehicle availability.
WANDERHOSE: Available in 150 and 200mm diameters, this rigid, turntable-mounted hose with a flexible extension enables cleaning over a wide 3.35m radius.
