2020 GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCTS R3 Regenerative Air Sweeper
Regenerative air sweepers trade pick-up width for maneuverability in tight municipal corridors, and that tradeoff determines whether a unit earns its keep on narrow downtown routes versus wide arterials. Operators and fleet managers who spec the wrong footprint end up adding a second pass, which erases the labor savings the machine was supposed to deliver.
Suction independent of engine RPM means consistent pick-up power even at idle on congested routes
12.5-foot turning radius navigates downtown blocks without adding second passes
Stainless steel hopper and cyclone dust separators extend service life and reduce maintenance cost
Dual spray modes and 230-gallon tank keep dust suppressed in high-traffic corridors
Carbide dirt shoes and 47-inch gutterbrooms direct curb and sidewalk debris straight to the hood
This 2020 R3 pairs a 172 HP Isuzu turbocharged diesel with a 32-inch diameter hydraulic impeller running at 3,000 RPM independent of engine speed, delivering consistent suction regardless of throttle position. The 72-inch pick-up hood with carbide dirt shoes handles curb debris, leaves, and fine dust; the 5.8 cubic yard stainless steel hopper with cyclone separators keeps the collection chamber clean and extends service intervals. A 12.5-foot turning radius and 116-inch wheelbase fit this unit into tight urban grids without sacrificing hopper capacity. The 230-gallon water tank with dual spray modes keeps dust suppression on demand. At 5,531 miles, this unit is ready for immediate deployment.
