SC²™ Self Contained Compactor/Container

Marathon brand components are selected for longevity and minimum maintenance, with special attention given to the selection of high-duty cycle components. Stress engineering provides the optimum degree of structural integrity. Only the best materials are used and the highest standards of quality are observed in the manufacturing process. 

Our RamJet SC² units are state-of-the-art in roll-off self-contained compactors, featuring large feed openings and expanded container storage capacity. They are designed to optimize safety for workers, store and transport your waste, prevent contamination of public areas in accordance with public health department requirements, improve working conditions for your employees, and reduce disposal costs.

The SC² compactor can be customized with a variety of loading arrangements to suit your specific needs.

SC^{2 TM} Features

• New packer head design raises cylinders to a higher parallel position, away from harmful, abrasive waste and liquid.
• Heavy Duty Wiper and Drag Plate, plus standard 1/2" Packer Floor improvements greatly increase the life of the compactor. 
• New packer head design has 50% less internal hydraulic hoses, which reduces maintenance and repair costs.
• Deck heights of 44" and 48" allow for easy loading from either ground or dock level. 
• Clean out behind the ram and rear cylinder pin access are both easily accessible from outside the compactor body at ground level.
• 41" x 58" (1041mm x 1473mm) feed opening to handle large, bulky items.
• Continuous feeding capability — even while the compactor is operating.
• Adaptable to special loading systems such as large-capacity hoppers, security chutes, or total enclosures.
• Odor and pest control via the Marathon Ozone Odor Control options.
• Up to 24 tons (21,772 kg) of crushing force to reduce refuse to a fraction of its former size, saving valuable space and reducing your number of hauls.

Improved Fixed Cylinder-Pin Mounting

The redesigned non-rotating cylinders are raised 18" off the floor to move them further away from any accumulated liquid and debris. Fixed cylinder body, plumbing, and pins are housed in the side pockets, eliminating the need for movement or rotation. This redesign also allows for fewer hoses, which reduces maintenance and repair costs.

Rear Access For Quick Cleaning

Open and uncluttered compartment combined with flat floor and quick removal cleaning ports will save time and facilitate more frequent cleaning, extending the life of internal components. Newly designed cylinders also allow for easy removal at the rear of the compactor.

Remote Power Pack

Separate from the compactor/container, the Marathon Remote Power Pack remains free of damage caused during hauling to and from disposal sites and free of problems caused by landfill dust. Two simple-to-use, hydraulic quick disconnect fittings couple the power unit to the packing head. Weather Cover and the Control Panel are standard equipment. 

All Marathon Remote Power Packs are built in-house to our quality standards and each unit must pass a series of stringent tests before it can be shipped with the selected compactor.

P-Seal Watertight Closure

The P-shaped Door Seal is specially designed for portable compaction containers to provide a superior watertight closure. The mounting is engineered for quick and easy installation when replacement is necessary, requiring no field fitting, cutting, or welding.

Double-Hinge with Bronze Brushing

Every SC² is tested for water-tightness before leaving the factory. Liquid retention is ensured by the incredible Double-Hinge. It creates uniform seal compression while eliminating the seal “scrubbing” and damage so often encountered with competitive designs.  The Double-Hinge also saves expensive driver and truck time because only one easy-to-operate ratchet is required to make it work.

Bubble Gate and Auto Relatch

The innovative “Bubble Gate” adds a full cubic yard to container capacity. Superior compaction ratios result from its special curved shape. These two unique benefits reduce the costs of hauling. 

The ultimate in latch systems, the Marathon “Auto Relatch” eliminates the need to hold the door while operating the latch ratchet. This design enables the operator to use both hands on the ratchet and prevents the door from swinging out inadvertently.

AR500 Guide Plates

The packing ram is supported by an improved abrasion-resistant guide system. This exclusive design protects the charge box floor from the full force of the packing ram, extending its life and dramatically reducing compaction-robbing friction.

CYCON Life-Xtender™ Cyclic Control System

Standard on all SC²  Compactors

• Reliable, solid-state circuitry eliminates all pressure and limit switches
• The CYCON Life Xtender no-shock cycle control extends cylinder and hose wear life
• Automatic “container full assurance system” — the ram dwells against the load at full pressure, resulting in better compaction
• Smoother running, quieter operation
• Advanced hydraulic design enables the system to operate at minimum pressure levels until the need for more pressure is automatically sensed
• More accurate "Advanced Warning" or "Container Full" options
• Dramatically improved cold weather performance

SC^{2 TM} Compactor Optional Features

The SC² compactor can be customized with a variety of loading arrangements to suit your specific needs.

Optional Features

• Optional Doghouse - The optional doghouse offers a totally enclosed charge box with heavy-duty latches, making the machine lockable.
• Streamline® Option - The Streamline option enables excess liquid to be drained from the container, reducing net payload weight and significantly reducing hauling costs.
• Perfect for Tipper System Applications - The SC2 is the perfect choice for applications requiring a tipper system. Bags of waste are put directly onto the tipper and dumped into the compactor. The self-contained compactor effectively solves spillage and leakage problems associated with conventional stationary compactors and containers.
• Available with Bayne Thinline® Cart Lifter - Equipped with an integral cart lifter, the SC2 offers an economical and safety-conscious solution for a wide variety of waste material handling applications. Bayne Thinline® cart lifters work with standard 2-bar roll-out carts and can lift up to 750 lbs. Lifter has a powder coated finish so it can stand up to the elements.
