New Aztec 27" Lowrider Sapphire 1 [1 Battery] Lowrider Burnisher
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The 27 in LowRider Sapphire is the one to look at when you want battery power without giving up coverage. Aztec rates it at up to 30,000 sq ft per hour, more than double the 14,282 sq ft per hour it lists for a typical electric burnisher, with the pad turning at 950 to 1,250 rpm from a 6.7 hp (5 kW), 48 V BLDC motor. That makes it a fit for big box retail, grocery, warehouse clubs and large school corridors, especially where propane exhaust or engine noise is a problem. It runs with zero emissions at about 65 dB. This package has one 2.4 kWh LiFePO4 lithium battery, which Aztec rates at up to 1.5 hours of runtime on the 27 in model and about 4,000 charge cycles. Dust control comes standard, and the body is all steel. The width can be the limit, so measure your narrowest aisle before you choose it over the 21 in. If one charge will not cover the floor, the two-battery package lets you swap and keep going.”
