A suction excavator or vacuum excavator is a construction vehicle that removes materials from a hole on land, or removes heavy debris on land.
Description
A suction excavator produces powerful suction through a wide pipe which is up to 30 centimetres (1ft) or so diameter. The suction inlet air speed may be up to 100 metres per second (220mph). Its construction is somewhat like a gully emptier but with a wider suction hose and a more powerful suction.
The suction nozzle may have two handles for the operator to hold; those handles may be on a collar which can be rotated to uncover suction-release openings (with grilles over) to release the suction to make the suction nozzle drop anything which it has picked up and is too big to go up the tube.
The end of the tube may be toothed. This helps to cut earth when used for excavating; but when it is used to suck up loose debris and litter, some types of debris items may snag on the teeth. The earth to be sucked out may be loosened first with a compressed-air lance, or a powerful water jet.
The AllJetVac 1215, the latest in the line of Vacall combination sewer cleaners and hydro-excavators, is being used to locate leaks and make repairs in a fraction of the time required by the old methods.

Have you faced challenges of safely clearing cables and pipelines?
Damaging cables and pipelines while digging may lead to dangerous and costly situations, resulting in millions of Euros of damage claims. There has been an increase in regulations and the need for a way to safely perform these jobs has never been so high. Solution: use suction excavation instead of digging.
There are two different types of suction technologies: ventilation and vacuum.
With ventilation technology the fan is the main component of the suction excavator. It creates an enormous airflow which picks up the material. The complex air conveyance system inside the container enable the particles being carried along.
Because this technology is depending on airflow it is di...

What is Vacuum Excavation
Vacuum excavation is digging by using a vacuum to break apart material with high-pressure water or air. This method of excavation is commonly referred to as soft excavation technology and accepted as being the equivalent or safer than hand digging within the tolerance zone around underground facilities.This process allows for workers on site to stay safe on the surface. This practice can eliminate accidental line damage and trench cave-ins. This is the only true method of identifying the accurate depth of a utility.
With vacuum excavation, companies have an alternative to hand digging and a safer way to expose utilities with both hydro and air vacuum excavation.

There are two different types of suction technologies: ventilation and vacuum.
With ventilation technology the fan is the main component of the suction excavator. It creates an enormous airflow which picks up the material. The complex air conveyance system inside the container enable the particles being carried along.
Because this technology is depending on airflow it is difficult to bridge large distances. Large airflow means less product and high fuel consumption.
With vacuum technology the pump creates a vacuum in the product tank. The material is then drawn into the tank or pushed down by the differential pressure of tank and outer environment. The higher the vacuum, the higher the differential pressure.
Vacuum is less depended on airflow, it’s just physics. A high flow of material can therefore be transported over very long distances and you can go deeper in the ground. Because less power is needed, fuel consumption is also sufficiently lower, which is better for the environment. Besides it reduces cost!
So, if you want to suck it all? Use the Amphitec® Suction Excavator. With this machine you will be future-proof!
