Description
Custodial staff damage fragile upright vacuums when sweeping tight stairwells and hard-surface breakrooms. The MetroVac ES-109T ElectraSweep Electric Broom combines an all-steel canister housing with a high-speed air turbine brush for multi-surface floor-to-ceiling cleaning. It generates 60 CFM airflow and 60 inches of water lift. Ingesting wet liquid spills will short the unsealed motor.
The body uses stamped 20-gauge all-steel construction finished in baked industrial enamel that resists mechanical denting from door strikes. Inside, a 480-watt commercial motor operates on precision ball bearings balanced to minimize vibration during handheld use. A direct-drive suction fan draws air through a sealed cloth and paper filtration array. Internal cooling air channels bleed heat through perimeter louvers, keeping the steel canister comfortable to hold during extended cleaning shifts.
Hardware Matrix Operational Specs
All-steel construction eliminates broken plastic housings common on lightweight broom vacuums. An air-driven turbine brush agitates low-pile carpet and runners without requiring dedicated electrical wires down the handle.
- 480-watt commercial motor delivers 60 CFM airflow for aggressive dry floor pickup.
- All-steel canister frame resists impact trauma and cracking in rough commercial service.
- Air turbine carpet brush uses vacuum airflow to spin an internal agitator roller bar.
- Convertible handle system transforms the machine from an upright electric broom to a handheld canister.
- Reusable cloth filter and disposable paper bags capture dust down to 0.3 microns.
- 24-foot commercial power cord provides ample reach for small offices and retail shops.
- Complete attachment kit includes an extension wand, crevice tool, and dusting brush.
Dyno Thermal Bench Benchmarks
Direct electrical test meters record a 4.1 Amp continuous draw on a 120-volt circuit under full tool restriction. Motor velocity tops out at 22800 RPM in open suction mode. Steel canister surface temperatures rise 37 degrees Fahrenheit over ambient room baseline during a 60-minute continuous run. Static suction lift holds at 60 inches of water lift on clean bags, dropping to 50 inches when filled. Sound meters register 73 dBA at 3 feet from the steel canister. Built-in thermal limiters trip at 205 degrees Fahrenheit during air blockages.
Field Maintenance Trade Offs
The turbine brush relies on airflow to turn, meaning brush speed drops when vacuuming deep plush carpets or when filter bags pack with dirt. Never use this machine for wet extraction or post-construction drywall cleanup because moisture will short the motor and plaster dust ruins the cloth filter. The steel body feels warm during long shifts.
- Clear wrapped hair and string from the turbine brush turbine blades after each shift.
- Shake out the cloth filter bag outside after vacuuming fine masonry or shop dust.
- Inspect the 24-foot power cord jacket for copper exposure before every work shift.
