Wastequip Launches New Self-Contained Compactor

Compactor designed to be energy efficient.


Wastequip, Charlotte, N.C., has introduced its, 4-yard, self-contained compactor. The compactor features a charge box that is twice the size of traditional 2-yard self-contained compactors, while using up to 65 percent less electricity. The energy savings comes from its large charge box that allows operators to fill the compactor with up to 24 bags of solid waste versus 12 bags with a typical 2-yard self-contained compactor.

According to Wastequip, as a result, the compactor runs 50 percent fewer cycles, saving energy. Additional energy savings comes from the Super “E” series motor that improves efficiency by enabling the motor to run cooler and last longer.

Wastequip says the new compactor has a number of other features that improve the equipment’s safety and efficiency. The compactor’s Guardian real-time monitor allows operators to see what is in the charge box or chute, making it ideal for through-the-wall applications. The Guardian control system also offers additional safety features, including dual Watch Dog timers that prevent unintended continuous operation along with an Automatic Maintenance Scheduler (AMS) to alert operators when routine maintenance is due.

The compactor is designed to maximize hydraulic performance with its quick disconnects that are 33 percent larger than standard disconnects, providing improved flow. The motor and pump system are also sized for optimal hydraulic performance. 

“We’re excited to introduce the Super Energy Efficient compactor to support sustainability and energy savings initiatives that continue to be key factors in product selection,” Kirk Warren, director of product management, says. “Not only does it use up to 65 percent less energy than a typical 2-yard self-contained compactor, it also has a number of features that enhance safety and performance like the Guardian power unit and the Guardian real-time monitor. Additionally, the compactor is covered by a three-year warranty, the best in the industry.”
