Vacuum Excavation is known to be the safest locating method to locate or expose underground utilities.
Vacuum excavation, or hydro-excavation is a Non-Destructive-Digging technique. Which is known to be the safest methods over conventional excavation in order to locate underground utilities.
Invest in one of our simple vacuum excavation units to locate and protect underground assets. Underground services including power and telecommunication cables are usually not always where the plans show them to be. Using a VM400 is the easiest way to locate these services and physically see where they are before drilling, trenching, or doing other excavation work.
The VM400 vacuum excavator is mainly used in crowded spaces, like cities and other urban areas where underground services are prolific and the impact of damage can have serious repercussions.
We manufacture the VM400 vacuum excavation unit mounted on a standard 2T skeleton trailer or mounted on a skid. This incorporates all standard components in one simple package ready to mount on your own trailer or small truck.
