Good things come in small packages

THE NEW COMPACT TRUVOX ORBIS BATTERY SCRUBBER MAY BE SMALL IN SIZE, BUT WITH EASY MANOEUVRABILITY AND A LARGE CAPACITY, THIS IS INNOVATION AT ITS BEST.

Unveiled at Interclean in April on the Truvox stand was an absolutely new addition to the well-known Truvox range of scrubber driers – a compact scrubber drier powered by a minimum-maintenance rechargeable 24V Gel battery. A handsomely designed scrubber drier for small or middle sized areas, the new Battery Scrubber has a 17 litre solution tank with adjustable solution flow and a 22-litre dirty water tank, probably the largest capacity on the market for a scrubber drier of this size, and is therefore capable of longer continuous spells of work than other competitive compact machines. It will be particularly useful to contract cleaners because the battery power frees them from the need to gain access to power points to be able to do their work.

The new machine has a larger-than normal dirty-water tank opening, so emptying and cleaning the tank is easier than you would expect and uses less effort. There is an easily removable float in the dirty water tank to provide warning if the tank is nearing full and the float assembly is easy to remove for cleaning because it is fitted under the cover of the tank.

The Orbis Battery Scrubber is supplied with two 28 A/h batteries as standard, and additional

batteries can be supplied on request. Typical battery run time is about 1 hour, there is a battery condition indicator on the control panel, and recharging from a mains outlet takes about 10 hours. The battery can be quickly and easily changed, so contract cleaners who purchase additional gel batteries with their Orbis Battery Scrubber, can work more or less continuously with a brief break of about five minutes for a change of battery every hour.

Designed for easy transportation, simple loading into lifts and for cleaning where there are

38mm brush diameter and working width, and a 450mm suction width with 658 m/bar suction, so does a powerful job. It is quieter than larger scrubber driers, with a 250W brush motor driving the brush at 130 rpm, and is ideal for shops,

restaurants, car showrooms, healthcare

premises, schools, workshops and gymnasiums. The Orbis Battery Scrubber is designed to clean at a rate of up to 1,100 square metres per hour.

The lightweight aluminium brush assembly and robust plastic suction beam are corrosion- free, and are quickly and easily removed to change the brush – there are only two easily accessed fixing pegs. The brush itself is wider than the body of the Orbis Scrubber Drier, so effectively cleans along the skirtings and around obstacles.

passages to negotiate, the Orbis Battery Scrubber has a compact folding handle, a

Large shock absorbing wheels protect the suction beam and squeegee from accidental impact, while also protecting furniture and equipment in the area being cleaned. When the machine turns, the swinging suction beam continues to provide excellent drying, so that there is no need to Page 1  |  Page 2  |  Page 3  |  Page 4  |  Page 5  |  Page 6  |  Page 7  |  Page 8  |  Page 9  |  Page 10  |  Page 11  |  Page 12  |  Page 13  |  Page 14  |  Page 15  |  Page 16  |  Page 17  |  Page 18  |  Page 19  |  Page 20  |  Page 21  |  Page 22  |  Page 23  |  Page 24  |  Page 25  |  Page 26  |  Page 27  |  Page 28  |  Page 29  |  Page 30  |  Page 31  |  Page 32  |  Page 33  |  Page 34  |  Page 35  |  Page 36  |  Page 37  |  Page 38  |  Page 39  |  Page 40  |  Page 41  |  Page 42  |  Page 43  |  Page 44  |  Page 45  |  Page 46  |  Page 47  |  Page 48  |  Page 49  |  Page 50  |  Page 51  |  Page 52  |  Page 53  |  Page 54  |  Page 55  |  Page 56  |  Page 57  |  Page 58  |  Page 59  |  Page 60  |  Page 61  |  Page 62  |  Page 63  |  Page 64  |  Page 65  |  Page 66  |  Page 67  |  Page 68  |  Page 69  |  Page 70
