Minneapolis, MN October 1, 2009 — The Proterra™ rider sweeper from Advance combines superior maneuverability, simple operation, and a 64-inch dust-controlled sweeping path to set a new standard of cleaning productivity for rider sweepers. The machine’s five-stage dust-suppression system captures dust at the main broom and side brooms, which minimizes fugitive dust and helps keep manufacturing facilities, parking garages, warehouses and other indoor and outdoor areas clean and free of airborne particles.

The patented DustClear™ Five-Stage Dust Control system begins controlling dust at the side brooms – the greatest source of fugitive dust on other sweepers. The Proterra’s dust suppression system emits a light mist at the side brooms that bonds to dust so that it settles and is immediately swept into the main broom chamber instead of drifting into the air. A vacuumized main broom chamber provides consistent airflow into the broom chamber to ensure all dust is contained in the main hopper. An Ultra-Web® (1) nanofiber filter then removes any remaining dust particles from the air stream. The life and performance of the filter is extended with Proterra’s variable frequency filter shaker system, which aggressively shakes the filter free of fine dust and particles at multiple vibration frequencies.
