SOLUTION / RECOVERY TANKS
The tanks shall be constructed of rotomolded polyethylene that will not dent, chip, crack or corrode. The tank capacity shall be no larger than 19 gallons (71 L) so it can scrub in tight congested areas for superior cleaning.
The tank must have a manual sight gauge that indicates how full the solution tank is, to optimize dump and refills, increase productivity, and aid in mixing detergent in the tank.
The recovery tank shall have a large opening that allows for easy and thorough cleaning, preventing the growth of odor causing bacteria.
The machine shall be equipped with a front guard that protects the machine from damage and lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO).
The machine shall have low solution LEDs on the dashboard to indicate when the solution tank is empty.
BATTERIES AND CHARGER
The machine shall come standard with (2) 12 volt, 130 Ah Wet/acid filled, or 140 Ah maintenance-free AGM batteries.
The machine shall be equipped with an onboard charger as standard for convenience and ease of use. Under the seat there shall be a location to store the onboard charger cord.
SOUNDLEVELSound pressure level hospital quiet and meets LEED requirements by lessthanorequal to 69 dB A in normaloperation.
SCRUBDECKThe scrub deck shall be raised and lowered via a foot pedal with noactuatortoincrease machine reliability and reduce theTCO.
Scrub pressure shall be a maximum of 51 pounds (23 kg) for superior cleaning without damaging delicate floor surfaces.
The machine shall come with 1 poly brush, and 1 pad driver as standard. The attachment method shall use an industrial 3-lug system for reliability and lowest total cost of ownership (TCO).
The machine shall have automatic brush/pad driver loading and unloading to allow for easy removal and installation.
SCRUB MOTORThe scrub deck shall be equipped with a brush motor rated at 0.60 hp(450 Watts).The motor shall be protected from overload by a circuit breaker for safety, reliability and lowestTCO.
SQUEEGEESYSTEMThe machine shall come standard with Linatexsqueegeeblades thathave long life and lowest TCO. High performance polyurethaneblades areoptional.
The squeegee shall not exceed 30 inches (73 cm), which allows it to scrub in areas that would be inaccessible with a larger squeegee, and be able to pass through most commercial doorways, to increase productivity and safety.
The machine will have a rear squeegee hanger so that the squeegee assembly can be stored safely and conveniently when not in use.
The squeegee angle shall be adjustable, and the squeegee blades changeable, without the use of tools for ease of use and safety.
