BOMAG's new BP Series of single direction vibratory plate compactors feature a rugged design and durable build to deliver compaction results across a range of applications from soil and paver block to asphalt construction and paving. The new line features six gas engine models — BP 10/30, BP 12/35, BP 12/50, BP 15/40, BP 20/45, and BP 25/50 — offering compaction widths from 12.6 inches (320 mm) to 19.7 inches (500 mm). An additional cyclone filter on BP 15/40, BP 20/45 and BP 25/50 models precleans intake air to reduce the amount of dust reaching the main filter to increase the engine's service life.
The exciter housing is cast into the base plate to minimize vibration-induced wear and eliminate the risk of screws loosening. BOMAG exciters are maintenance free to increase compactor uptime. Bar guards safeguard compactor components from damage at the job site or during transport and incorporate a lifting handle for easier loading. The vibration system's V-belt guard features an all-round enclosed design to minimize repairs and protect the operator from injury. The plates' ergonomic design incorporates directly accessible service points to minimize downtime.
While delivering high compaction forces on sand, gravel, and mixed, non-cohesive soils, these single direction plates are easy on the operator. The guide handle offers effortless manoeuvrability right up to walls and directly on foundations. Large rubber vibration isolator blocks deliver low hand/arm vibration feedback — below 16.4 ft/s2 (5 m/s2) — to the operator to ensure fatigue-free operation. When it's time to leave the job site, the handle quickly folds without tools to take up less room for transport.
The new BOMAG BP Series is designed to compact a wide range of materials efficiently and effectively. For asphalt applications, contractors can equip the machine with a BOMAG's spray bar kit, featuring a large capacity tank with wide opening for easy filling. The kit sprays water directly across the entire plate width, preventing asphalt material from sticking to the plate and damaging the surface.
For landscaping applications, all models can be equipped with BOMAG's highly wear-resistant polyurethane mats. Easy to install, the mats prevent marks on paving stones and reduce the risk of breakage. They deliver particularly gentle compaction of concrete paving stones, especially those with a coated surface.
In addition to transport handles, compact dimensions, and a foldable guide handle, the new BP series can be customized with BOMAG transport wheels to help move about the site or from site to site. Quick and easy to install, the wheels fold up and out of the way when the compactor is in use.
