What is a vacuum sweeper ? High performance sweeping: vacuum sweepers remove dirt of all kinds from interior and exterior surfaces. How are they different from sweepers? When in use, the vacuum sweeper disperses dust using a roller brush, then vacuums the dust using a suction turbine (fan) and deposits it in a filter system.
How do vacuum sweepers work ? Different models require different sweeping principles.
1. The dustpan principle: The roller brush turns in the opposite direction to the direction of travel, dirt is moved to the front of the sweeper and into the waste container (direct dirt pick-up).
Push sweepers and industrial vacuum sweepers operate in line with this principle.
Advantages:
Low-dust sweeping due to lower brush speeds and a short “sweep path”
Less brush wear
Ideal for expansive and heavy dirt as well as fine dust
2. The throw over principle
The dirt is collected in the opposite direction to the direction of travel and is moved into the back dirt container via the main roller brush. Walk-behind vacuum sweepers and ride-on vacuum sweepers operate in line with this principle.
Advantages:
Container allows up to 100% fill level
Ideal for coarse and light dirt
Collects coarse dirt with ease using a coarse dirt flap
