DEFINITION OF PLATE COMPACTOR
The Mikasa MVCe82VBW is a walk-behind, one-way plate
compactor designed for the compaction of sand, mixed soils
and asphalt. This plate compactor is a powerful compacting
tool capable of applying a tremendous force in consecutive
high frequency vibrations to a soil surface. Its applications
include soil compacting for road, embankments and
reservoirs as well as backfilling for gas pipelines, water
pipelines and cable installation work.
The upper section of the plate compactor consists of
the DC power unit, handle, guard hook, and belt cover.
The lower section of the plate compactor consists of the
vibrating plate and vibrator unit that has an eccentric rotor
in vibrating case.
VIBRATORY PLATES
The vibratory plates produce low amplitude high frequency
vibrations, designed to compact granular soils and asphalt.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The resulting vibrations cause forward motion. The engine
and handle are vibration-isolated from the vibrating plate.
The heavier the plate, the more compaction force it
generates.
FREQUENCY/SPEED
The compactor's vibrating plate has a frequency of 6,000
vpm (vibrations per minute).
DC POWER UNIT
The plate compactor is equipped with a Honda GXE2.OH
3-phase brushless DC motor.
BATTERY and BATTERY CHARGER
THE MVCe82VBW uses a Honda DP72104Z rechargeable
lithium ion battery and a Honda DV7285Z battery charger.
WATER TANK
The water tank provides lubrication to the base plate when
compacting asphalt and may be used for dust control in
dry work environments.
