RJ-225HD

The RJ-225HD is purpose-built to handle tough waste disposal applications, thanks to its heavy-duty features. The charge-box floor, constructed with 1/2" steel plate, is firmly supported by four 4" steel channels, while the 1/2" ram faceplate is reinforced with 10" channels and incorporates T-1 steel. With eight heavy-duty formed cross members and reinforced charge-box sides, the RJ-225HD thrives even in high-stress areas.

Designed with industrial applications in mind, the RJ-225HD excels at handling the disposal of skids, cartons, and recycling materials like OCC (old corrugated cardboard), paper, and more. All electrical components, including the control box assembly, are UL and CUL listed, ensuring reliable performance and adherence to safety standards. The charge-box, measuring 40 1/2" x 60", boasts a depth of 33 5/16", facilitating fast and effortless disposal.

RJ-225 ULTRA

The RJ-225 Ultra was designed with cost-conscious waste generators in mind. The Marathon RJ-225 Ultra stationary compactor delivers exceptional performance while providing numerous cost-saving benefits. Equipped with a side-mounted power unit, the RJ-225 Ultra eliminates the need for electrical components within the compactor. This innovative configuration ensures convenience and simplifies maintenance. With an easily accessible reset button for the motor starter, operators can reset the motor without having to access the control box. Additionally, the external limit switch reduces maintenance costs, further enhancing the compactor's overall efficiency.

The RJ-225 Ultra operates fully automatically, offering ultimate convenience. Operators can effortlessly dispose of waste by simply dumping it into the generous 40 1/2" x 60" charge-box opening and turning the key. Once the compaction cycle is complete, the unit automatically shuts down. With key operation, operators have absolute control over the compactor's functionality. The packing ram of the RJ-225 Ultra is supported by intelligently designed cast-iron shoes that glide smoothly on replaceable wear strips. This exclusive design protects the charge-box floor from the full force of the packing ram, prolonging the ram's lifespan and significantly reducing friction that hinders compaction efficiency.
