It must say "OZTEC" to be the industry's best concrete vibrator.
Powerful, portable and reliable…Oztec gas power units, provide ultimate and immediate adaptability on the job. Utilizing rugged and dependable Honda gasoline engines, coupled to our "speed-up" transmission, vibrator heads develop 12,000 vpm and never drop below 10,000vpm...Even in the heaviest low slump concrete loads. (Tested in near 0 slump concrete). This 10,000 - 12,000vpm range is essential for high-quality concrete. Direct drive units "scream", have short lives and usually drop below 10,000vpm when the head is immersed in concrete
Mounted on very comfortable frames, Oztec backpack power units allow operators incredible maneuverability around the job.
Oztec power units come standard with the Quick Disconnect "QD" system. Changing shafts and heads on the job is a snap.
Oztec Model No. BP-35
Radius of Action
The most important bit of information needed for complete consolidation.
Radius of Action is the distance from the center of the vibrator to the outer edge, where complete consolidation takes place (see diagram).
For quality concrete Oztec lists conservative values for "Radius of Action". Complete consolidation is necessary for low slump concrete with close meshed reinforcement bars, high strength concrete and architectural concrete.
Radius of Action can be twice the listed values when slump is high or super plastisizers are used. It is important these values are used only as a general guide.
