What Type of Vactor Vacuum Truck is Right for You?

While each piece of vacuum equipment may perform different tasks, they are all designed to serve one purpose: to improve the infrastructure of the communities and industries. Combination trucks, hydroexcavation units, industrial vacuum loaders; there are plenty of machines to pick from when it comes to vacuum machines. Find the Vactor Sewer Cleaning Equipment That is Right For You.

Combo and hydroexcavation trucks are designed to move wet and slurry material such as in cleaning sewer lines, storm drains, and catch basins using high-pressure water and a centrifugal vacuum system. Not all material is wet and there is a need for a machine that is capable of not only vacuuming wet material but also dry powdery materials such as fly ash, cement powders and the like.

What Type of Vactor Vacuum Truck is Right for You

That’s where industrial vacuum loaders come in. Using positive displacement blowers to convey the air, they can be used for moving all types of materials. Combo machines work well for municipalities for sewers and lines, mostly underground. Industrial machines can be used for those purposes, but also work well on farms and in power plants, manufacturing facilities, chemical plants, and food-grade facilities for moving solids, liquids, slurries, fly ash, and around conveyor systems, furnaces, bag houses, pits, tanks and those types of uses.

Vacuum Pump Repair

Repair of vacuum pump is a complex technological process, requiring from a specialist the necessary qualifications and experience. It should be noted that this type of device is notable for its high service life and reliability. However, in order to avoid unforeseen failures and breakdowns, routine preventive inspections of the unit and replacement of worn parts are required. There are many reasons why a unit may fail, such as aggressive environment, wear of parts, intensity of use, but thanks to the uncomplicated design of the unit, it is often possible to make repairs of the vacuum pump with your own hands. Common Types of Pump Faults Despite the reliability and high service life of the vacuum pump, like any other equipment, the vacuum pump needs attention, namely preventive inspections, timely replacement of worn parts. The most vulnerable components are the glands, hoses, and diaphragms, so these parts should be given special attention. The pump casing, on the other hand, can...

Types of Vacuum Pumps

During the production of vacuum forming devices, parts made of plastics and metals that are resistant to the chemical effects of the pumped substances are used. In addition, the structural elements must have sufficient strength. It is obligatory to fit all nodes, check tightness, so that surfaces do not let back gases. There are several types of pumps that are used for home and other purposes. Water Ring Vacuum Pumps The water-ring type of vacuum pump is one of the varieties of liquid-ring devices that are used to allow pure water to circulate. The device has a cylindrical shape and a rotor with vanes that rotates with a shaft that is off-center. Before the device is turned on, it is filled with liquid. When the motor is started, the impeller disperses it over the walls of the housing. A sickle-shaped vacuum zone is formed between the water and the rotor mechanism. Gas from the spigot is directed into it. The blades guide it along the shaft, and it comes out through an op...
