New Advance SC500 20D One 64 Ah Lithium-ion battery, onboard charger and pad holder

Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)

“The SC500 20D is a 20 in walk-behind disc scrubber, and this version runs on a single 64 Ah lithium-ion battery with an onboard charger. Lithium means no watering, and the operator just plugs the machine in when the shift is over. It is a good size for schools, offices, restrooms, clinics and smaller retail floors. The 12 gal solution and recovery tanks are generous for a 20 in machine, and the pad holder runs at 155 rpm with two pressure settings, 33 and 66 lb, for daily scrubbing or heavier soil. At 63 dB A, and 60 dB A in silent mode, it can run during business hours without disturbing anyone. This is the non-EcoFlex model, so detergent is mixed into the solution tank the traditional way. If you want onboard detergent dosing, look at the SC500 X20D, and if your floors need deeper scrubbing, the X20R uses the REV orbital head. For a crew that wants a simple, quiet, low-maintenance walk-behind, the 20D on lithium is an easy choice.”

Questions
