Questions & answers
How does a floor scrubber work?
“Understanding how a floor scrubber works is fundamental in order to make the most of its potential.”
How many types of floor scrubber are there on the market?
“There are walk-behind and ride-on floor scrubbers with working (or cleaning) widths of different sizes. Comac offers a range of floor scrubbers with a working width that varies from 35 to 130 cm.”
Why choose a floor scrubber with disc brushes?
“A brush head with disc brushes is extremely versatile: it adapts to all types of floor and easily removes stubborn dirt. The version with dual disc allows the detergent solution to be directed to the center of the floor scrubber, or the point of maximum suction, thus reducing side splashes.”
Why choose a floor scrubber with cylindrical brushes?
“A brush head with cylindrical brushes combines scrubbing and sweeping actions to allow the floor scrubbers to effectively clean floors that also have small, solid residues. They are usually equipped with a debris hopper installed directly on the brush head to easily collect small pieces of debris that have been collected during scrubbing.”
What does a sanitizer consist of?
“The answer to this question very much depends on the type of sanitizer being considered. Precisely because the environments to be sanitized can be extremely diverse, both small and large sanitizers exist, and use different technologies for the delivery of the sanitizing solution. Comac, for example, offers a range of machines for sanitization which use pneumatic or hydraulic technology.”
How does a sanitizer work?
“The operation of a sanitizer is very easy; by enabling the delivery of the liquid solution present in the tank, the machine begins to dispense this sanitizing solution in nebulized form. Nebulization is the reduction of a liquid into tiny particles that are referred to as droplets, and which, in accordance with the sanitizer being used, are of different sizes.”
What is the difference between pneumatic and hydraulic sanitizers?
“The main difference lies in the dimensions of the droplets which are created and in the distance that these can travel.”
Which sanitizer should I choose for my environment?
“The first thing to consider before purchasing a sanitizer is the size of the area or environment to be treated, as well as the surface in question.”
Why recycle water in cleaning operations?
“Water is a precious substance that is increasingly less widely available, and is used in large quantities, even during the easiest of cleaning operations. For this reason, it is essential to limit its use as far as possible.”
Can I recycle and reuse the water in my floor scrubber?
“Yes, absolutely. Comac has conceived InAqua, an external purification system that can clean the water used during cleaning operations. This external recycling system enables the water of any floor scrubber to be recycled and reused, from the smallest walk-behind to ride-on machines.”
Is there a floor scrubber that recycles water on its own?
“Yes. Comac has developed the Non Stop Cleaning system, which allows the recycling and reuse of the water used in scrubbing operations by the floor scrubbers on which it is installed.”
How does a sweeping machine work?
“When the sweeper begins to operate, the brush or side brushes are tasked with conveying the dirt to the central part of the machine. Subsequently, the combined action of the central brush and the vacuum turbine allow the removal of the dust and small debris.”
How many types of sweeper exist?
“There are walk-behind and ride-on floor sweepers with working (or cleaning) widths of different sizes. Comac offers a range of sweepers with a working width that varies from 50 to 120 cm. The range also includes street sweepers with a working width of up to 323 cm if equipped with side brushes and a swinging brush.”
Are the sweepers difficult to use?
“It is really easy to use a sweeper, whether it is a walk-behind or ride-on model. Naturally, larger machines have more specific controls, but in all cases these are easy, user-friendly machines requiring the minimum learning time.”
Can I collect any type of dirt with the sweeper?
“With the sweepers, it is possible to collect everything except rope, strings and metal or plastic supports: these can wrap around the central brush and could damage it.”
How does a vacuum cleaner work?
“When the motor of the vacuum cleaner begins to function, it activates the rotation of the fan or fans installed on the rotation axis. The rotation of the fans sucks air in from the outside, creating a vacuum inside the tank.”
What is the difference between a dry vacuum cleaner and a wet & dry vacuum cleaner?
“Dry vacuum cleaners are able to vacuum dry particles of larger or smaller size that are not mixed with liquid substances.Meanwhile, so-called wet & dry vacuum cleaners can vacuum liquids of various types, or particles mixed with liquid substances.”
Can I vacuum dust and liquids at the same time?
“Some models are designed to vacuum both solids and liquids simultaneously (Wet & Dry). This is done by directing the air flow which conveys the solids and liquids onto a dynamic (cyclone) separator, rather than directly onto the filter.”
In the case of industrial vacuum cleaners, is a single-phase or three-phase model better?
“We are referring to the power supply, of course. Everything depends on the mains electricity network available in the place of use. Turbine industrial vacuum cleaners with induction motor, both single-phase and three-phase, are perfectly suited to extended application and continuous use. Naturally, the high power levels that are required in certain specific applications necessitate three-phase vacuum cleaners.”
