The Elgin Broom Bear features a large hopper and water tank, which means more productive sweeping time. Single-engine design keeps maintenance or the need for replacement sweeper parts to a minimum. A variable dumping height and 11” (279 mm) of hopper side-shift ensures easy dumping. This sweeper is available with your choice of squeegee or no-jam belt conveyor systems, depending on the application requirements. The short wheelbase, large brooms, and dual mode air suspension system make the Elgin Broom Bear ideal for sweeping in both congested urban areas and far away rural locations.
The LifeLiner hopper system is a specially designed hopper liner and finish system that greatly improves the life, durability, and functionality of a sweeper hopper.
Allows operator to sweep effectively in variably-pitched gutters. On-the-go pitch adjustment with a simple variable rocker switch that displays proper broom angle. Extended reach allows the side broom to follow curbs and tight cul-de-sacs.
The Broom Bear Sweeper can be equipped with optional debris conveyance systems. End users can spec the sweeper unit with an elevator "squeegee" system or a "no-jam" belt conveyor system. Both systems have their respective advantages depending on the application.
The hybrid Broom Bear uses a high-capacity battery to power the sweeper. The battery can be recharged while driving or when plugged into an electrical outlet. The sweeper consumes dramatically less fuel relative to the baseline Broom Bear, while maintaining overall performance. The hybrid sweeper’s low noise level is an added benefit for the operator, and especially for residents living in areas where sweepers routinely operate.
The Elgin Broom Bear is available powered by compressed natural gas. This rugged, mechanical sweeper is powered by the state of the art Cummins Westport L9N N-Gas natural gas engine making the Broom Bear a fully certified EPA/CARB emission standards single-engine street sweeper. Offers a generous 51 gallon diesel equivalent fuel capacity giving a sweeping range even beyond the standard diesel Broom Bear.
Elgin's mechanical sweeper design follows a proven and traditional approach. Our design can be equipped with an industry-leading 60" belt and water-nozzles for dust suppression.
