VS650

Robust construction

Mounted to the subframe, the hydraulically operated sweeping system is designed to prolong the life of the brush and reduces the cost of ownership. Both channel and wide-sweep brush installations feature quick-change mechanisms which reduce downtime between changeovers.

With a heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant stainless steel body, Johnston's V Range is robustly built for unrivalled durability.

In-Cab Controls

All sweeping operations are controlled from the master module inside the cab, while all critical systems controls - including the master circuit breaker plus the valves and auxiliary equipment for the pneumatic, hydraulic and water systems - are housed in a purpose-built, dust and weatherproof locker.

The V Range comes with waterproof IP67 automotive electrical connectors to enhance reliability.

Advanced hopper design

With many years experience of sweeper design, Johnston have developed a unique system which creates a cyclone effect within the hopper which efficiently filters dust and debris particles through mesh screens prior to discharge to atmosphere. This unique design is a standard feature of all Johnston V sweepers.

A rear discharge chute ejects loads away from the rear of the vehicle, avoiding the risk of damage to rear mounted components.

Excess Water Discharge

The load de-watering system fitted as standard, enables drainage of water from the waste volume in the hopper.

Cold Weather Protection

The V Range also features a standard Pressadrain water purging system that enables the easy removal of water from the systems in freezing overnight conditions.

Water Recirculation

The V Range comes with an option for a water recirculation system that recycles water from the hopper into the suction nozzle, which conserves water, reduces dust emissions. Water recirculation significantly increases sweeping productivity by allowing greater distances to be swept before the water tank needs to be refilled.

Emissions

The V Range is also the first European manufactured sweeper to achieve full PM10 test compliance in stringent air quality tests on whole vehicle emissions.

Options

Littasnatch: Specially developed to pick up light litter from pavements and hedgerows. With a lightweight, easy to operate flexible hose and nozzle, it can reach up to 7 metres.

Supawash: A high pressure water system for faster cleaning of gulleys and drains using a hose and hand lance. Water can also be diverted to a front-mounted full-width spray bar or suction nozzle to help remove stubborn road debris.

Powascrub: This wide sweep brush ground pressure device enables the extra scarifaction of compacted debris.

Load de-watering: With increases in waste tipping charges, this option ensures that you only pay for waste volume, not unnecessary water volume.

Rear mesh shakers: A fast and effective method of clearing damp paper and leaves from suction meshes.

Wanderhose: Available in 150 and 200mm diameters, this rigid, turntable-mounted hose with a flexible extension enables cleaning over a wide 3.35m radius.
