  • Clean machine

    With a clearance as low as 6.5 ft, the TYMCO 210 (Circle 910) is ideal for indoor and outdoor sweeping applications. A high dump function lifts the hopper up to 60 in. for dumping into standard dumpsters or tilt hoppers.
    The large auxiliary engine allows the blower to reach maximum air flow power at lower engine RPMs, saving fuel and wear while decreasing sound levels.
    The 210 includes inside-cab, operator-friendly sweeper controls with a tachometer, amp and hour meter as standard equipment. The dump control is located outside for safety purposes.
    The 210 is the only parking lot sweeper with a patented centrifugal dust separator that keeps the fines and dust inside the hopper. There are no filters or baffles to clean or replace.

    Clear view

    The Tennant Sentinel (Circle 911) provides superior sweeping performance in the harshest, most congested sweeping environments.
    The environmentally friendly machine features all-weather dust control. It has a unique twin-vacuum fan design that delivers superior dry dust control that meets stringent PM-10 environmental requirements.
    The Sentinel also focuses on safety, with a full-view, cab-forward design. Glass doors and windshields provide clear views of the cleaning path for improved safety and confidence.
    Four-wheel power steering and suspension, a height of only 100 in. and a 13-ft turning radius make the Sentinel easy to maneuver through congested spaces, from tight manufacturing aisles to alleyways.

    Dust off

    The Schwarze Model DXR Dustless Regenerative Air Street Sweeper (Circle 908) utilizes a filtration system prior to the blower fan that removes 100% of the fine particulates known to contain contaminants on the average roadway. This system does not exhaust any dust-laden air into the atmosphere and requires zero use of water for dust control. Due to the elimination of water for dust control, the Schwarze DXR is able to be used effectively year-round in a variety of applications.
    Cleanup time at the end of the day is drastically reduced due to the elimination of water for dust control and the associated time for water fill-ups during a day of operation. This results in increased production levels.

    Sweeping success

    The Waterless Eagle high-efficiency sweeper with dry dust control from Elgin Sweeper (Circle 909) provides year-round sweeping in all weather conditions and controls dust without using water. The sweeper provides additional environmental benefits, including a reduction in road silt that can be left as a film from water-based dust-control sweepers.
    The dust-control system allows operators to sweep more and spend less time filling tanks, which increases productivity. Without water, mud does not build up on components, which can reduce cleanup time at the end of a shift by 30 minutes. Sweeping in freezing weather also is possible with the Waterless Eagle.
    The Waterless Eagle is an option for DOTs and municipalities wherever dust control or winter maintenance is a concern, such as a bridge deck or new road construction.
