Product details
The Sanitaire SC889, part SC889, is the QuietClean version of the Tradition upright: a two-speed machine with dual-zip bag access, built for crews working the same floors every day.
Sanitaire publishes 145 CFM from the 7-amp motor through a 12-inch cleaning path, with a 6.1-quart Style ST bag behind it, and rates the machine at 69 dBA. That sound figure is where the QuietClean name comes from, and it is what makes the machine workable in a lobby, a library or a patient area during occupied hours rather than only after everyone has gone home. At 16.2 pounds it is light enough to carry up a flight of stairs single-handed, and the 50-foot pigtail cord covers a wide area from one outlet. The two speeds let an operator drop to the lower setting on delicate commercial carpet and bring it back up for high-traffic runners without changing machines.
- Motor: 7 amp, two-speed
- Airflow: 145 CFM across a 12 in path
- Dust capacity: 6.1 qt (Style ST bag)
- Sound level: 69 dBA
- Weight: 16.2 lb
Consumables are the ordinary Style ST bag and the Style RD belt, both widely stocked, so keeping an SC889 in daily service does not depend on tracking down a specialty part. On a machine running several hours a day, change the bag on a schedule rather than waiting for symptoms: a bag left in past full costs airflow well before anyone notices the pickup has fallen off.
