New Powerboss Apex 47 HD Battery QP
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Apex 47 HD is the version of PowerBoss's compact battery rider sweeper we point people to when emptying the hopper is the slow part of the job. The hopper is hydraulic and dumps hands-free at variable heights up to 60 in, so the operator can empty straight into a dumpster or a bin without bending over and pulling trays by hand. Everything else is the same compact Apex: a 28 in main broom designed to compensate for wear, a 40 in sweep path with one side broom or 47 in with dual side brooms, and up to 77,500 sq ft per hour with two side brooms, per PowerBoss. It turns in a 70 in radius, which helps around racking, in parking decks and along loading docks. A synthetic panel filter with a shaker motor keeps the dust down indoors. This is the quick pack, so it comes with the 24 V battery package and an off-board shelf charger. If your crew is happy emptying by hand, the Apex 47 LD does the same sweeping with manual hoppers.”
A compact battery rider sweeper for industrial floors

A 28 in main broom and a side broom sweep a 40 in path, or 47 in with optional dual side brooms, and PowerBoss rates it at up to 77,500 sq ft per hour.

Questions
PowerBoss Apex 47 HD: common questions
What does QP mean?
QP is the PowerBoss quick pack. The machine comes with its battery package and charger, so it is ready to sweep.
What is the difference between the LD and the HD?
Both have a 2.1 cu ft hopper. The HD (this unit) has a hydraulic hopper that dumps hands-free at variable heights up to 60 in. The LD uses dual manual hoppers that you empty by hand.
How wide a path does it sweep?
40 in with one side broom, and 47 in with optional dual side brooms. PowerBoss rates it at up to 77,500 sq ft per hour with two side brooms.
Will it fit my aisles?
It is 50 in wide and turns in a 70 in radius. Measure your narrowest aisle and doorway before you order.
Can it dump into a dumpster?
Yes. The hydraulic hopper raises and dumps at variable heights up to 60 in, so the operator can empty it into a dumpster or tall bin without lifting anything by hand. Check the height of your dumpster rim first.
