Kit 4R+ : Integration of a 4th CNG tank for vacuum sweepers
THE CUSTOMER PROBLEM
The City of Paris found that it was having difficulty ensuring sufficient autonomy with its CNG sweepers to cover all the cleaning routes.
cleaning routes. In tipper-truck configuration, the vehicles used, Iveco Eurocargo, are equipped with six tanks along the chassis. However, in the sweeper-sweeper configuration, the space available is limited by the equipment, which means that only three tanks can be installed just behind the cab. This reduction in storage capacity, combined with the high fuel consumption of the sweepers and their hydraulic systems, considerably limits the vehicles' range.

This reduction in storage capacity, combined with the high fuel consumption of the sweepers and their hydraulic systems, considerably limits the vehicles' range.
THE CRMT SOLUTION
To meet this need, CRMT has developed an innovative, approved solution: the 4R+ Kit. This kit increases the range of sweepers by adding an extra 22kg of CNG. The solution includes installing a new storage rack, adding a fourth tank and adapting the gas line.
THE PLUS
With this standard turnkey kit, operators can plan longer cleaning routes without worrying about autonomy limitations, maximising their productivity and efficiency.
