New Minuteman KS28 Battery Operated Walk-Behind Carpet/Hard Floor Sweeper
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Kleen Sweep 28 is a powered walk-behind sweeper for facilities that have outgrown a push sweeper and a broom but don't need a rider: schools, hospitals, warehouses, retail backrooms, parking garages and building entrances. It sweeps a 28 in path at up to 3.1 mph, and Minuteman rates it at about 37,900 sq ft per hour. The brooms use an overhead throwing design that flings debris up and over the main broom into the hopper, so the 9.2 gal (1.2 cu ft) hopper fills all the way instead of piling up at the front. The filter is rated at 99.9 percent at 3 microns, it runs at 63 dB or less, and it fits through a standard door, so it works indoors and out. This package runs on a single maintenance-free 12 V AGM battery with an onboard charger, and Minuteman says to expect about 2 to 3 hours of sweeping per charge. The side broom lifts off the floor when you don't need it. If you want to ride, look at the Kleen Sweep 32R.”
