Air Intake Baffle
Baffle reducing intake noise and debris ingestion.
Air Intake Guard
Protective mesh fitted at the sweeper’s main intake to prevent large debris entering the fan housing. It reduces the risk of impeller damage and costly downtime.
Aggregate Binder Ratio
Target ratio of binder volume to aggregate coverage.
Air Knife
Narrow jet of air used ahead of suction to lift fine dust from pores.
Aggregate Chipping Feeder
Mechanical feeder distributing coated chippings evenly across the spray width. Prevents clumping and ensures a uniform road texture in surface dressing works.
Air Pre-Cleaner
Cyclonic pre-filter for engine intake in dusty sweeping environments.
Aggregate Feed Auger
Helical auger moving chippings evenly along the width of the spreader. Guarantees a uniform chip layer and eliminates streaking on surface-dressing jobs.
Air-Conditioning Service Port
Port providing connection points for re-gassing the cab air-conditioning system. Keeps operators comfortable on long summer shifts and ensures demist performance in winter.
Aggregate Feed Gate
Sliding gate controlling the rate at which chippings leave the spreader hopper. Adjusted to keep surface dressing uniform across the carriageway width.
Air-Intake Rain Shield
Metal or composite guard positioned over the sweeper’s engine-air intake. Stops rainwater entering the filter housing during wash-downs or heavy weather.
