Vacuum and jetting vehicles for municipal, industrial, and environmental applications
Efficient suction, transport, and disposal of liquids and sludge
Vacuum vehicles play a vital role in the safe removal, transportation, and disposal of liquids, sludge, and contaminated substances. These vehicles are essential for a wide range of sectors including municipal services, industry, construction, environmental protection, and agriculture.
Suction of sludge, oil, and contaminated liquids
Equipped with powerful vacuum pumps, suction vehicles are used for:
Emptying septic tanks and wastewater pits
Cleaning grease traps in restaurants and industrial facilities
Removing sludge from settling basins or production systems
Extracting liquids such as oils, chemicals, or polluted water
Safe transport in airtight tanks
The extracted materials are safely transported in sealed tanks made of stainless steel or aluminum. Depending on the application, these tanks can be operated under vacuum or pressure to ensure secure handling of hazardous or sensitive substances.
Vacuum disposal by pressure, gravity, or tipping mechanism
Disposal of the collected material can be done via:
Pressurized discharge systems
Gravity-based emptying
Hydraulic tipping mechanisms
Typical disposal locations include wastewater treatment plants, waste collection centers, or temporary storage facilities.
Combined vacuum and jetting units with high-pressure cleaning
Combined suction and jetting vehicles offer a multifunctional solution by integrating vacuum technology with high-pressure water jetting. This combination allows for thorough cleaning and effective removal of obstructions in pipes, tanks, and sewage systems.
Powerful suction of liquids and solids
These units are capable of removing:
Sludge, sand, grease, roots, and other debris from pipes, manholes, or tanks
Liquids, slurries, and solid materials from treatment plants or industrial facilities
High-pressure water jetting for deep cleaning
Cleaning pipelines and sewage systems
Removing stubborn deposits, blockages, or root intrusions
Flushing house connections or industrial piping networks
Water recycling for increased efficiency
Many modern jetting units are equipped with integrated water recycling systems. After filtration, the extracted water is reused for jetting operations. This not only conserves freshwater but also extends the operating time on site, especially beneficial for remote or resource-limited environments.
Typical use cases of vacuum and jetting vehicles
Vacuum and jetting vehicles are designed to handle a wide variety of demanding tasks, including:
Cleaning storm drains, sewer lines, and manholes in urban areas
Removing industrial residues, oils, or chemical waste in manufacturing environments
Flushing pipelines and removing drilling fluids on construction sites
Containing and removing hazardous materials during environmental incidents
Emptying slurry pits and digesters in agricultural operations
The benefits of a combined vacuum and jetting system
Dual functionality in one vehicle: Suction and jetting combined for greater versatility
Efficient workflows: Simultaneous or alternating use of vacuum and high-pressure cleaning
Lower operational costs: Reduced need for multiple vehicles and fewer personnel
Extended on-site performance: Water recycling reduces refill stops
Flexible deployment: Suitable for municipal, industrial, and construction environments
