The secret to our 100% electric success

The secret of our street sweepers and street washers is the true 100% electric. Indeed, all of our machines have been designed to be only electric, so we can boast of greater energy efficiency due essentially to the absence of hydraulic circuits and a very limited total volume.

Technical specifications

Steering

The carefully tested and safe electric steering provides exceptional agility and maneuverability, as well as easy steering and increased safety, which along with optimal directional stability, allow the driver to concentrate completely on sweeping with no distractions and without being concerned about maneuvering the vehicle. Thanks to the front wheel steering system, allowing for high maneuverability, Electra 1.0 is capable of efficiently cleaning any surface, from the narrowest alleyways to the widest open spaces.
Batteries and runtime

Electra 1.0 is equipped with various types of 48 Volt low-voltage battery packs specifically designed for use on this vehicle. The option of using different types of batteries (AGM and lead acid) makes it possible to fully adapt to the specific working and budget requirements of every customer. Depending on the type of battery used, the guaranteed autonomy runs from 9 to 10 hours, so it is capable of covering an entire shift. Our carefully tested technology ensures a minimal ecological footprint and high recyclability as well as the utmost safety due to the low voltage used.
Charging and regeneration

Electra 1.0 can be equipped with a large variety of external three phase and single phase chargers with different types of powers and voltages and different charging times, to fully meet customer requirements. Furthermore, Electra 1.0 is equipped with a system for energy recovery while decelerating and braking, which further boosts the machine’s work autonomy.
Sweeping

The Electra 1.0 electric street sweeper is equipped with a suction waste collection system. Two independent counter rotating brushes located in front of the front steering axis convey materials towards the vacuum nozzle and an innovative air filtration system, with 99% filtration, traps fine dust particles up to PM 2.5, even dry. The street sweeper ensures top-notch performance during the work phase by adapting to any type of street surface thanks to the self-balancing capabilities of every component.
Waste Container

The standard interchangeable 95 GAL or 63,4 GAL municipal solid waste container is made of HDPE, in accordance with UNI EN 840 (UNI 10571 and DIN 30740) standards, guarantees the maximum resistance and is perfectly watertight. The full container is replaced with an empty one with no physical effort by the operator. It is possible to install an optional 360 L waste container system with incorporated high tipping at 155,11 INCH, making it possible to easily and effortlessly unload waste into dumpsters and tanks. It allows to easily dump to easily dump the material collected into normal dumpsters. The 26,4 GAL AISI 304 stainless steel clean water tank guarantees the utmost work autonomy and the use of the dust control system.
Driving comfort and safety

The ergonomic, fiberglass and soundproof cab of the Electra 1.0 street sweeper guarantees the utmost operator comfort and a unique driving experience, also thanks to shock-absorbing suspensions on all four wheels. Equipped with an anatomic adjustable cushioned seat, it allows operators to work in complete safety and comfort with minimal vibrations. The ergonomic controls located in the cab are highly easy and intuitive to use, allowing operators to concentrate on their work with no distractions. Thanks to the LAMINATED GLASS, anti-glare transparent panoramic windshield and side doors made entirely of glass, visibility is excellent. However, optional supplementary video cameras can provide even broader visibility of the surrounding area.
