Diesel mechanical sweeper Merlin XP

street

The design brief for the Merlin-XP was to create a roadsweeper capable of extracting maximum efficiency and performance when mounted on a 7.5 tonne chassis. Because an auxiliary diesel engine pack only compromised an already precious payload capacity, we decided to rely on Scarab’s environmentally-friendly and well-proven Hydrostatic and Unidrive powerered sweeping systems. This decision allowed us to maximise both hopper and water capacity while maintaining good weight distribution at all times. In standard trim, the Merlin XP’s 900 litre water tank, 5.5 m3 hopper and potential payload performance of between 2115 and 2400 kg, compares more than favourably with any other 7.5 tonne based street sweeper.
