Swepac floor vibrator SV23E

Swepac SV 23E is a single-beam floor vibrator, designed for surface and horizontal vibration of fresh concrete surfaces. The vibrator unit is connected to aluminium profiles in four fixed lengths: 1.6, 2.2, 3.2 and 4.2 metres. The profiles lock in place with a tool-free quick-release fastener, so the beam length can be changed quickly during the job. If no aluminium profile is available, a timber beam can be used instead – the fittings for this are supplied with the machine.

The vibrator is driven by a 230 V single-phase 350 W electric motor with speed control from 0 to 10 000 rpm and a maximum frequency of 167 Hz. The adjustable motor means that the vibration frequency can be adapted to all concrete types and surface textures. The floor vibrator itself weighs 13 kg and measures 1200 x 470 mm in height and width. The 1.6-metre profile weighs 8.4 kg and the 4.2-metre profile 22.1 kg. The protection rating is IP 54.

Low weight and a clean, simple design make the machine easy to handle. A bar positioned at ergonomic height serves as a lifting handle when moving the machine, and the machine is well suited to renovation work. The handles are well balanced and give low hand-arm vibration measured at 2.0 m/s², while the sound pressure level at the operator's ear is 73 dB(A). The handle is adjustable and can be adapted to different operators. The machine is robust and reliable, with low operating and maintenance costs.
