Definition of Plate Compactor

The Mikasa MVH-R60H is a walk-behind, reversible plate compactor design for the compaction of sand, clay 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.

Vibratory Plates

The vibratory plates of the MVH-R60H produce low amplitude high frequency vibrations, designed to compact granular soils.

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.

ReversibleVibratory Plates

Reversible vibratory plates have two eccentric weights that allow a smooth transition for forward and reverse travel, plus increased compaction force as the result of dual weights.

Due to their weight and force, reversible plates are ideal for semi-cohesive soils.

MVH-R60H — FEATURES

Frequency/Speed

The compactor's vibrating plate has a frequency of 6000 vpm (vibrations per minute).The forward and reverse travel speed of the compactor is approximately 82 ft./minute (25 meters/minute).

Engine

The Mikasa MVH-R60H Reversible Plate Compactor is equipped with an Honda GX120K1SM12 gasoline engine.

Controls

Before starting the MVH-R60H Reversible Plate Compactor, identify and understand the function of the controls and components as indicated on Figure 3.
