New Powerboss Apex 47 LD Battery QP
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Apex 47 is a compact battery rider sweeper for the places where a walk-behind sweeper takes too long and a big industrial rider will not fit: warehouse aisles, manufacturing floors, parking decks and loading areas. PowerBoss rates it at up to 77,500 sq ft per hour with two side brooms, and it turns in a 70 in radius, so it gets around racking and into corners. The 28 in main broom is a large diameter that PowerBoss designed to compensate for wear, and a synthetic panel filter with a shaker motor keeps dust down in the building. This is the LD (low dump) version, with dual manual hoppers that you pull and empty by hand, which keeps the machine simple, with nothing hydraulic to service on the hopper. It comes as a quick pack with the 24 V battery package and an off-board shelf charger, so it is ready to sweep. If your crew dumps into a dumpster, look at the Apex 47 HD with the hydraulic high dump instead.”
A compact battery rider sweeper for industrial floors
The PowerBoss Apex 47 LD is a battery-powered ride-on sweeper for warehouses, factories, parking structures and other large indoor or outdoor 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.
The LD (low dump) version uses dual manual hoppers with 2.1 cu ft of volume. This quick pack (QP) package includes the 24 V battery package and an off-board shelf charger.
