Superior Fan Performance

Over the past three decades, the Whirlwind vacuum system has been refined to provide the optimum blend of airflow and static vacuum.  Airflow is needed to carry the debris from the suction nozzle into the hopper and vacuum is needed to overcome any restrictions such as rocks or bulky debris.  The Whirlwind fan has a rating of 20,000 CFM of airflow and can produce up to 68" of water column vacuum.  More power means less time on the same street increasing operator productivity with one pass pickup.

Productive Sweeping System

The sweep system includes a suction nozzle, trailing arm side brooms and centrally mounted extension broom.  You can choose between a single side or dual side sweeping system.  The 11 inch (279 mm) suction hose accepts large debris.  Quick disconnect allows an operator to inspect and clean the hose intake tube without raising the hopper.  The nozzle extends 15 inches (381 mm) beyond the tire track for increased performance at the curb.

Gutter Broom

The hydraulically driven gutter broom has down pressure and speed controls that allow the operator to perform in any application or condition.  Gutter brooms can come in single or dual side configurations.

Efficient Dust Suppression

Two corrosion-resistant tanks supply the dust suppression system with 335 gallons (1268 L) of water.  Optional tanks provide an additional 280 gallons (1060 L).  Spray nozzles positioned at the side brooms, nozzle and extension broom feature long life, quick disconnect fittings.

Easy Maintenance Access

Major system components are protected from the elements and are easily accessible for service and inspection without tilting the hopper.  The engine oil can be checked, hydraulic filter changed, pneumatic pressure verified and fan bearings greased from the ground.

LifeLiner® Hopper System

The LifeLiner® hopper system greatly improves the life, durability, and functionality of the sweeper.

Wandering Hose

The Whirlwind handles up to four tubes for deep catch basin cleaning.

10 yd³ Hopper (7.6 m³)

An increase from the standard 8 yd³ hopper to a 10 yd³ hopper for extended sweeping range or capacity.

PM10 Package

Highly efficient dust control system passes California's fugitive dust control standards (Rule 1186, PM10).  Includes a 40 psi @ 7 gpm self-priming pump.
