OverviewThe RAVO R2 is a compact municipal street sweeper designed for urban environments. It combines a 2 m³ stainless-steel hopper with a dedicated hydraulic suction system and a patented Push/Pull (PPS) rotary cylinder brush to provide efficient debris collection and extended working reach. Available with petrol and diesel engine options and several operator-focused features.
Key features- High suction capacity for the 2 m³ class with reinforced extra-large suction mouth and large-diameter direct suction pipe.
- Patented Push/Pull (PPS) sweeping system; brush deployment up to 2450 mm (up to 2900 mm with optional third brush).
- Two- and four-wheel steering, patented Auto‑Steer system and short rear overhang for operation in confined urban spaces.
Environmental responsibility & operating modesThree preset operating modes: Standard, EcoMode and BoostMode. EcoMode covers most routine sweeping tasks and can provide up to 50% fuel savings compared with intensive mode, while reducing noise and extending component life. The machine achieves 4 stars in the EUnited PM2.5/10 test. A recycled waste-water system reduces fresh water consumption by collecting and re-injecting used water into the suction nozzle.
Engine options- Kubota V3800 Stage V / Tier 4 - 55.4 kW @ 2200 rpm (72 hp)
- VM R754 Euro 6 Step D - 62 kW @ 2300 rpm (83 hp)
- Kubota Stage IIIA - 55.4 kW @ 2200 rpm (72 hp)
- Kubota WG 3800 Gasoline Stage V - 65 kW @ 2600 rpm (78 hp)
- Kubota Gasoline Stage V Ethanol - 65 kW @ 2600 rpm (78 hp)
ManeuverabilityExtra-compact dimensions with a short rear overhang, selectable 2- or 4-wheel steering in sweeping mode, optimised turning radius and Auto‑Steer function that realigns the rear axle in transit mode for efficient movement between work sites.
On-board comfort & safety- Standard automatic air conditioning and foot-level heating.
- Suspended driver and passenger seats with multiple adjustments and 3-point seatbelts; passenger foot rest.
- MP3/SD/USB Bluetooth radio with hands-free kit; 12V socket and dedicated smartphone compartment.
- Rear-view and suction-nozzle cameras; improved 360° visibility via low windscreen, glass side doors, panoramic mirrors and floor window.
Sweeping performanceThe PPS rotary cylinder brush system increases sweeping reach and functionality. The chassis includes a large-capacity stainless-steel hopper, reinforced frame and resized rear axle. The hydraulic system, reinforced suction nozzle and large-diameter high-resistance direct suction pipe deliver high suction power for effective debris intake.
Adaptability and optionsWith the standard front arrangement the RAVO R2 can be configured as a 3-brush sweeper, mechanical weeder, brushing/scouring unit, street washer or snow removal machine. Available accessories include a third brush, washing kit with high-pressure pump and automatic hose reel, 200-litre salt spreader, rotating snow brush and hydraulic snow blade.
