New Powr-Flite Millennium 2000 Buffers/Burnisher
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“When the goal is that wet-look shine on a finished floor, more pad speed gets you there faster, and the NM2000 spins its 20 in pad at 2,000 rpm. Powr-Flite rates it at 26,000 sq ft per hour, so a custodian can cover long school corridors, store aisles and lobbies in a single pass on the shift. The housing is the reason it works well: Powr-Flite's patented one-piece polyethylene design balances the weight so the whole pad stays in contact with the floor, with no compensating caster to adjust. The 20 in flexible pad driver is included, the 1.5 hp belt-drive motor runs on a standard outlet, and the 75 ft 12-gauge cord lets the operator cover a lot of floor between outlets. Full-surround non-marking bumpers protect walls and fixtures, and a thumb-activated safety interlock helps prevent accidental start-ups. If dust from burnishing is a concern in your building, Powr-Flite also makes the NM2000DC dust-control version, and the NM1600 is the same machine at 1,600 rpm.”
A 2,000 rpm burnisher with full pad-to-floor contact
The Powr-Flite NM2000 Millennium Edition is a 2,000 rpm electric burnisher for a high-gloss, wet-look shine on finished hard floors.

It runs on a 1.5 hp belt-drive motor with a 75 ft 12/3 cord, rolls on two 5 in non-marking wheels and comes with a 20 in flexible pad driver (Powr-Flite part X8862). This is Powr-Flite model NM2000.

Questions
Powr-Flite NM2000: common questions
Is a pad driver included?
Yes. The NM2000 includes Powr-Flite's X8862 20 in flexible pad driver, which gives full pad-to-floor contact with no compensating caster. Burnishing pads are sold separately.
How much floor can it burnish in an hour?
Powr-Flite rates the NM2000 at 26,000 sq ft per hour. Actual coverage depends on the floor layout and the number of passes.
Is there a dust-control version?
Yes. Powr-Flite offers the NM2000DC, a 2,000 rpm Millennium burnisher with dust control. Ask our team if dust from burnishing is a concern in your building.
Can it scrub or strip floors?
No. A burnisher is a high-speed polishing machine for finished floors. For scrubbing and stripping, use a low-speed floor machine such as the Powr-Flite Millennium 20 in models.
Not sure the NM2000 fits your floors?
Tell our team about the floor finish, the size of the area and how often you burnish, and we will help you decide if this is the right machine.
