Demo Clarke BSW 28 Sweeper
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“If you are still sweeping a lobby, hallway or carpeted office with a push broom or a manual sweeper, the BSW 28 is a big step up without the cost and footprint of a rider. It is a battery-powered, self-propelled walk-behind, so the operator steers while the drive does the pushing, and the side broom pulls dirt out of the edge where the wall meets the floor. What makes it useful is that it is not limited to hard floors: Clarke designed it to sweep carpet too, so one machine can handle the tile entry and the carpeted corridor behind it. The active dust filter and filter shaker keep fine dust in the machine instead of in the air, and at 59 dBA it is quiet enough to run while people are working. The onboard charger means you plug it into any wall outlet at the end of the shift, and the handle folds down for tight storage and easy transport. It is a good fit for schools, offices, retail stores, churches and light-duty warehouse aisles.”
A 28 in battery sweeper for hard floors and carpet
The Clarke BSW 28 is a self-propelled, battery-powered walk-behind sweeper. A 20 in main broom and a 12.4 in motorized side broom give it a 28 in sweeping path, and debris is thrown directly into a 2.1 cu ft polyethylene hopper. Clarke built it to sweep both hard floors and carpet, so one machine can cover entries, hallways, offices and carpeted areas.
It runs on a 12 V DC system with a sealed, maintenance-free gel battery and a 6 A onboard charger, so it charges from a standard wall outlet wherever it is stored. Active filtered dust control, a 59 dBA sound level and large non-marking wheels make it a good fit for buildings that are cleaned while people are inside.
