Sprite® 16 &
Sprite® 16 Pro
Wet-Dry Tank Vacuums
Designed for Stripping Floors… Fast
Smart cleaning.
A Nilfisk-Advance Brand

Versatile cleaning and stripping systems
designed for significant time and labor savings.
The enhanced Advance Sprite® 16 is the wet/dry tank vacuum that cleans and saves. Saves money, that is. Don’t waste
expensive time and labor on mops and buckets. For powerful, simple, quiet and efficient cleaning, put the Sprite 16 to
work on your floors. New features include a clear cover to allow workers to see the water and chemical level in the
tank, and a short pig-tail cord attaches to your 50 foot cable, eliminating the need to wrap a long cord around the
machine between uses. Plus, the Advance Sprite® 16 Pro is available with the same impressive wet/dry vacuum
capabilities along with a stripper dispensing tool and features designed to reduce the time it takes to strip floors.
Ideal applications include:
• Hospitals and Healthcare Facilities

• Shopping Malls
• Warehouses
• Distribution Centers

Wet-Dry Tank Vacuums with
Floor Stripping Features
Dependable Design
The Advance Sprite 16 consists of a powerful, yet quiet,
70 dB A, 1.3 hp 2 stage, by-pass motor, located under the
tank for protection from water and debris. The tank holds
16 gallons and is constructed of rugged and corrosion-
resistant polyethylene material. The tank conveniently
pivots on a hinge to dump contents, or drain through a
built-in hose. The entire tank lifts off for cleaning and
allows total access for motor service or maintenance.
Wet Pick-up
Sprite
16 picks up water faster than machines featuring a
hose and wand, effectively cleaning—even in tight spots.
The 24 inch front-mounted chemical resistant squeegee
maneuvers right up to walls and into corners, picking up
water and debris in both forward and reverse motion. A
simple-to-use floor pedal raises or lowers the squeegee,
making transport a snap. A oat system stops recovery to
prevent tank overflow.
Dry Pick-Up
For dry pick-up, insert a sock filter and use any of the dry
pick-up accessories. A washable exhaust lter helps
assure dust containment.
Floor Stripping
Get higher productivity, less mess, more even application,
decreased operator fatigue and increased safety, with the
Sprite 16 Pro. Designed for floor stripping applications,
the Sprite 16 Pro adds the ultimate stripping tool to the
versatile features of the Sprite 16, allowing users to
efficiently lay down and then pick up stripper solution.
The solution flows down to the floor via gravity and a
stripper applicator tool ensures that it is applied evenly
when the operator pulls the machine back. No power is
required. Once the stripper is applied and scrubbed to
loosen the floor finish, the squeegee tool replaces the
stripping tool and the machine is simply plugged in and
pushed forward to suck up the stripper/floor finish slurry
and any rinse water used.
