Street sweepers with and without battery

Street sweepers are available with and without batteries for different requirements, such as the efficient cleaning of sidewalks, driveways and parking lots. Different models are available depending on the area of application and individual requirements.

Street sweepers with battery: flexible and environmentally friendly

Street sweepers with a rechargeable battery offer cordless freedom, which is particularly recommended in urban areas and on small to medium-sized surfaces.

Advantages:

• Quiet in operation: Ideal for use in noise-sensitive areas.
• Emission-free: No exhaust fumes, therefore environmentally friendly.
• Low maintenance: Low maintenance compared to petrol-powered machines.
• Easy handling: Lightweight and maneuverable, also suitable for less experienced users.

Disadvantages:

• Limited running time: Limited operating time depending on battery capacity.
• Longer charging times: Battery needs to be recharged regularly.
• Acquisition costs: Higher price compared to petrol-powered devices.

Street sweepers with a battery are ideal for use on smaller areas, in residential areas or when quiet and environmentally friendly solutions are required.

Petrol road sweepers: Powerful for large areas

Petrol-powered street sweepers are characterized by their high performance and independence from power sources.

Advantages

• High area performance: Suitable for large areas and intensive use.

• Long operating time: No recharging required, continuous operation possible.
• Robustness: Can also withstand more demanding conditions.

Disadvantages:

• Loud operation: Can be a nuisance in residential areas.
• Emission load: Exhaust gases have a negative impact on the environment.
• Higher operating costs: Fuel consumption and maintenance costs are higher.

Petrol-powered road sweepers can be a good choice for use on very large areas or in areas without a power connection.

Buying a road sweeper - how to make the right choice

The decision between a battery-powered and a petrol-powered road sweeper depends on various factors:

• Area size: Smaller areas benefit from the flexibility of battery-powered models.
• Noise sensitivity: Quiet battery-powered models are advantageous in quiet residential areas.
• Frequency of use: For regular use on large areas, a petrol-powered device can be an advantage. Both types are justified and the choice should be based on individual needs and operating conditions.

If you want to buy a road sweeper with a battery, the Wipeket SKM80E, which offers an area performance of up to 15,200 m²/h and is ideal for use on medium-sized areas, is a good choice

For larger areas and more intensive use, it may be more advantageous to purchase the SKM200E as a road sweeper. Both models offer different advantages, which should be weighed up depending on the area of application and requirements.
