GPC P24

Suitable for Wet Waste

Due to the nature of what goes into compactors — essentially offensive waste — unchecked material can attract rodents, undesirable pests, and emit foul smells.

With a liquid retentive wet waste portable compactor, effluent and smells are kept inside the unit thanks to the full sealing and robust door locking mechanism, meaning the area around it stays clean and odour free.

For extremely malodorous waste, an optional deodorising system can be specified to prevent foul odours from being produced. The GPC P24 is liquid retentive and has been tested by filling it with over 425 mm of water to ensure no effluent from waste materials will leach out. Holding up to this height of liquid results in the P24 being able to contain 5,000 litres of water.

Self-Cleaning Portable Compactor for Offensive Waste

Tackling the most challenging waste is made straightforward thanks to the GPC P24’s self-cleaning head, designed for wet and sticky waste that on a conventional compactor would clog up and cause constant downtime. The pendulum head inside the cylindrical load chamber scrapes away waste and keeps itself clean — hence the self-cleaning term. This ensures the machine works at peak efficiency with minimal downtime, even when handling malodorous and potentially hazardous waste such as that found in healthcare facilities or from perishable goods. For ease of servicing, the rams are located on the upper side of the pendulum head, so should service or repair be required, these parts are positioned up and away from the waste itself — protecting the components whilst also making service and repair considerably more straightforward.

Bin Lift System

A fully automatic bin lift option is available, removing the need for time-consuming manual loading. Comb and trunnion bin lifts are available, allowing the compactor to lift a variety of bin types ranging in size from 240 up to 1,100 litre capacities. The bin lift is designed to work within CHEM compliance and therefore has a transport position, which reduces its height, making road transport of the compactor much easier.

Custom feeding solutions and bespoke compactor designs are available to suit individual customer requirements.

User-Friendly Operation and Enhanced Safety

The Gradeall GPC P24 wet waste compactor is designed with user safety and ease of operation at its forefront. The compactor features intuitive controls which, if required, can be housed within a secure, vandal-proof enclosure to prevent unauthorised operation. Safety is further reinforced through the inclusion of emergency stop buttons located on both sides of the machine for easy access. When a bin lift is fitted, the safety guards feature interlocks that prevent operation of the bin lift when the guards are not in the down position, reducing the risk of accidents and providing peace of mind. From its effortless loading mechanisms to its clear operational interface, every aspect of the GPC P24 is crafted to deliver a safe, user-friendly waste compaction experience.

Optimal Compaction with the Twin Ram Pendulum Head

The Gradeall GPC P24 self-contained waste compaction unit is engineered with a twin ram pendulum head, delivering a formidable total force of 38 tonnes to effectively compact waste. This power is delivered via a 5.5 kW hydraulic power pack, achieving swift waste processing with a cycle time of just 30 seconds. With a total capacity of 24 cubic metres — gained from a 20.5 cubic metre container and a 3.5 cubic metre charge box — the GPC P24 stands out in its ability to handle large volumes of wet waste efficiently. This design significantly reduces the frequency with which waste collection is required, thereby decreasing disposal costs. By optimising the waste compaction process, the GPC P24 not only boosts on-site hygiene and waste management but also furthers sustainable waste management practices.

Customisation to Ensure Perfect Integration

The GPC P24 distinguishes itself with an adaptable modular hydraulic control system, designed so that it can be placed on either side of the machine. Recognising the varied layouts and operational needs of different sites, the GPC P24 offers customers the option to position its control panel on either side, or if required, a second panel providing controls on both sides. This flexibility is further enhanced by a range of customisable options to suit specific site needs. Options include a bin lift system, facilitating easy waste disposal from bins and offering an alternative to manual feeding. For sites with chute-based waste disposal, the GPC P24 can integrate automatic start features triggered by sensors or remote signals, working alongside automated waste disposal systems. Additionally, the compactor can be equipped with drainage ports, allowing for the efficient handling of effluent, which can then be processed through wastewater treatment facilities. Designed with modularity at its core, the GPC P24 is a versatile solution ready to meet the diverse requirements of various customer sites, each with unique waste management challenges.

RORO Compactor with CHEM Compliance

The Gradeall GPC P24 has been built to comply with British CHEM Standards, an independent regulatory body overseeing issues associated with portable compactors. This compliance is critical as it guarantees seamless integration with existing collection trucks that are built to these standards. This is an important consideration when purchasing any RORO roll on roll off container or skip — collection trucks are built to CHEM standards and so are Gradeall compactors. This feature ensures easy loading and unloading of your compactor when it is time for it to be collected and emptied.

Stay Connected with the Intelli-Fill Telemetrics System

The Gradeall GPC P24’s advanced Intelli-Fill Telemetrics system, standard in all Gradeall portable compactors (subject to network operator cost and signal strength), revolutionises waste management with its GSM-based remote monitoring capabilities. This system provides vital statistics on usage and compactor capacity, including automated capacity alerts at 75% and 100% full, to streamline collection schedules and minimise downtime. It also facilitates remote diagnostics and maintenance reminders, enhancing operational efficiency and reliability. Intelli-Fill is an indispensable tool for optimising waste management processes, offering crucial insights and alerts for proactive management.
