HUSQVARNA 500MM 400V FLOOR SAW

Husqvarna FS 500 E Floor Saw: Powerful & Emission-Free Cutting for Indoor & Sensitive Areas

The Husqvarna FS 500 E is a highly versatile, electric-powered floor saw, engineered for efficient and precise cutting in various small to medium-sized service and repair jobs. Ideal for use indoors, in confined spaces, or in noise-sensitive environments, this machine stands out with its powerful, zero-emission motor and user-friendly features, making it a professional choice for concrete, asphalt, and reinforced concrete cutting.

Features

• Powerful Electric Motor (7.5 kW / 10 HP): Equipped with a robust 7.5 kW (approximately 10 horsepower) electric motor (typically 400V 3-phase). This powerful motor delivers consistent performance for demanding cuts, while being IE3 certified for high efficiency and zero CO₂ emissions during use. This makes it perfect for indoor applications where fumes from petrol or diesel saws are unacceptable.
• High Cutting Depth: Capable of achieving a maximum cutting depth of 190mm (7.5 inches) with a 500mm (20-inch) diamond blade. It can also accommodate 450mm (18-inch) blades, offering flexibility for different cutting requirements.
• Integrated Water Tank: Features a large, integrated water tank (typically 30 litres) with optimized water flow. This enables efficient wet cutting to suppress dust, cool the blade, and extend blade life, often without the need for an external water supply connection. A quick connection point for an external hose is also usually present.
• Automatic Soft Start: Ensures a smooth and gradual start-up of the motor, reducing electrical surges, minimizing wear on components, and providing greater control for the operator.
• Phase Error Detection & Phase Shift Plug: Important safety and operational features for a 3-phase electric machine. These prevent the motor from running incorrectly due to wrong phase connection, protecting the motor and ensuring proper rotation.
• Adjustable, Vibration-Dampened Handlebar: The ergonomic handlebar can be adjusted to provide a closer and more comfortable working position for the operator. It also incorporates vibration dampening to significantly reduce hand-arm vibrations (HAVs), enhancing operator comfort and reducing fatigue during long cutting sessions.
• Easy-to-Access Blade Shaft Greasing Points: Designed for simple and quick daily maintenance, ensuring the longevity and reliable performance of the blade shaft system.
• Cutting Depth Indicator: An easy-to-read indicator allows for precise setting and monitoring of the cutting depth, ensuring consistent and accurate cuts.
• Foot-Operated Parking Brake: Provides stability and safety when the machine is stationary, particularly on inclines or when changing blades.
• Compact & Easy to Transport: Despite its power, the FS 500 E is designed to be compact and well-balanced (weighing around 145 kg), making it relatively easy to lift and transport to different job sites
• CE-Eurotest Certified: Complies with European health, safety, and environmental regulations, ensuring it meets high quality and safety standards.
• Optimised Weight & Balance: Contributes to an ergonomic working position and improved productivity.
• Prepared for Connectivity: Newer models may feature connectivity options, allowing for integration with fleet management systems to monitor machine status and usage data.

Applications

The Husqvarna FS 500 E is a versatile floor saw suitable for a wide array of applications:

• Indoor Cutting: Ideal for cutting concrete slabs in warehouses, factories, and commercial buildings where exhaust fumes are prohibited.
• Confined Spaces: Its compact size and electric power make it suitable for areas with limited ventilation or space.
• Noise-Sensitive Areas: Hospitals, residential areas, and other locations where noise pollution needs to be minimized.
• Service & Repair Jobs: Cutting for plumbing, electrical wiring, data cables, and other utility installations in floors.
• Trenching: Creating trenches in concrete for various installations.
• Asphalt Cutting: Suitable for cutting asphalt surfaces in urban areas or parking lots where emissions are a concern.
• Cutting Reinforced Concrete: Powerful enough to cut through concrete with rebar.
