Four side brushes and a center roller brush span the full path while a HEPA filter rated 99.97% efficient at 0.3 microns captures fine respirable particulate that standard sweeper filters pass through. Shake-vibration technology automatically cleans the HEPA media during operation, maintaining consistent suction without mid-shift filter service. An 8-battery, 6-volt \/ 305 Ah power system and a 42.2-gallon hopper support extended cleaning assignments with minimal service interruptions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor facilities comparing the Cat® C70R and the C70RX, cleaning performance is identical across every specification: same cleaning path, same coverage rate, same brush system, same hopper capacity, same filtration, same battery system, and the same complete kit at delivery. Operator enclosure is the sole difference — the C70R's open station suits temperature-controlled facilities or moderate-climate environments where ambient conditions are comfortable across the cleaning shift, at $5,000 less than the AC cabin C70RX.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border:1px

The single difference is operator enclosure: the C70RX adds an air-conditioned cabin that isolates the operator from ambient facility temperature and airborne conditions. The C70R uses an open station where the operator is exposed to facility air. For temperature-controlled facilities or moderate-climate environments, the C70R provides identical cleaning capability at $5,000 less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat facilities is the Cat® C70R open-station design most appropriate for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen-station operation suits facilities with consistently controlled ambient temperature — climate-conditioned warehouses, enclosed distribution centers, and indoor manufacturing facilities — and environments where cleaning shifts are moderate in duration rather than extended multi-hour runs. Where building temperatures rarely exceed comfortable working ranges, the C70R delivers full C70RX cleaning output at $5,000 less. Where heat stress over extended shifts is a documented concern, the C70RX cabin is the right specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Cat® C70R's HEPA filtration and shake-vibration system work together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHEPA filtration captures fine respirable particulate — particles as small as 0.3 microns at 99.97% efficiency — that standard sweeper filters pass into exhaust airflow.
