Factory Cat 34 / 34HD

Industrial Walk-behind Floor Sweeper

Why a Factory Cat 34 instead of other sweepers?

As air pressure is generated by the rapid rotation of the sweeping broom, it causes air to want to escape the broom chamber through gaps in the rubber skirts, and end up surrounding the operator and the sweeper. Dust filters are installed in sweepers to divert the air flow and screen out this dust.

Typical commercial floor sweepers use a paper panel filter to screen this air. However, extreme dust can clog the folds of a paper filter blocking the air flow at the filter’s paper surface. Even the use of a mechanical shaker will not totally clear the imbedded dust from these closely packed leaves. It is this point where the paper filter is replaced. This can be a significant expense at 40 to 80 dollars per filter.

The Factory Cat 34 has a very effective dust screening design not seen on other walk behind floor sweepers. It uses a permanently mounted polyester felt filter to capture large amounts of air born dust from inside the broom chamber, without blocking the passage of air through the filter. When the dust reaches a point a of saturation on the filter, it will fall back into the debris hopper. A hand operated mechanical filter shaker is used to assist this process. This style of filter is called a "bag house" filter and is often seen in wood shops and industrial plants.

We have installed these durable machines in Norfolk VA shipyards, bagged chemical warehouses, lime mines, concrete bag plants, machine shops, and kitty litter factories with great success. No other small walk behind will work as well at controlling dust and also handle the rough use applications. If it works well on these tough jobs, you can be assured that it will work great in more typical applications, and keep your maintenance costs low as well.
