Bucher MaxPowa V80

The MaxPowa V80 is Bucher Municipal's truck-mounted sweeper for heavy-duty work, with an 8.0 m³ hopper and a 2255-litre water tank. With an additional water tank, the total water capacity is up to 3955 litres. It fits chassis with a gross vehicle weight from 15 to 18 tonnes and a nominal wheelbase of 3200–3400 mm.

The V80t has its own auxiliary engine: JCB Dieselmax 448 Stage 5 with 97 kW and 550 Nm as standard, and 129 kW and 690 Nm as an option. Outside the EU, a JCB 444 Stage 3a with 85 kW is also available. The fan is driven through a gearbox with a 1.79:1 ratio. The V80h has hydrostatic drive (OMSI 600) with infinitely variable speed from 0 to 40 km/h while sweeping, and the V80m is driven by the chassis power take-off.

The hopper is made of 4 mm stainless steel 1.4003 with a 56° discharge angle and 125° door opening. The airflow forms a cyclone in the hopper that separates out dirt and dust before the air exits through the filter screens. The sweeping width is 1300 mm with suction mouth and side brush, 2400 mm with roller brush and 3600 mm with dual-sided pick-up.

The V80 rear suction version has full-width suction mouths at the rear, which Bucher describes as suitable for motorways and construction sites. The 10-inch JVM screen is mounted on an articulated arm, the door controller has up to six programmable buttons, and the hopper is emptied using a wireless remote control. The V80 is EUnited PM10/2.5 certified with four stars.
