New Aztec 21" Lowrider Sapphire 1 [1 Battery] Lowrider Burnisher
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The LowRider Sapphire takes Aztec's low-profile burnisher and puts it on lithium battery power, which opens it up to buildings where a propane machine is a hard sell: occupied schools, healthcare, grocery and retail during open hours. The 21 in size is the easiest of the two to move through doorways, around checkouts and between fixtures. Aztec rates it at up to 24,000 sq ft per hour. That is close to double the 12,500 sq ft per hour Aztec lists for a typical electric burnisher. This package has one 1.2 kWh LiFePO4 battery, which Aztec rates at up to 1 hour of runtime and about 4,000 charge cycles. A 48 V BLDC motor with an intelligent controller drives the pad, there are zero emissions and the sound level is about 65 dB. Dust control comes standard on every Sapphire. If one hour covers your nightly route, the single battery keeps it simple. If not, look at the two-battery package so you can swap and keep going.”
