The King Vac® consistently performs tasks that are special, unique, and, in some cases, never even considered possible by the people that own them. Loading materials like railroad ballast, petroleum products, lime dust, gravel, drilling mud, bricks, paper pulp, mill scale, resin beads, fly ash and tar, are common materials that are loaded every day with a King Vac.
Some special loading projects include - the digging of a 4-foot-by-6-foot tunnel, 90-feet long, under a shopping center mall to facilitate access to a broken water drain line. Once the drain line was repaired, the King Vacs optional Dry Bulk Blow-Off System was used to back-fill the tunnel with dry sand.
A King Vac combination unit, equipped with a high pressure water jetting system, provided hydro-excavation to create a 12- foot-by-10-foot hole in the ground around a main cable junction box. This involved the simultaneous use of high pressure water and powerful vacuum to avoid damaging any of the optic cables and small control wires that were littered around the junction box.
One King Vac operation involved hooking up to a 1.5 mile long refinery product pipeline, maintaining a deep vacuum, and pulling a "pig" ,(a device slightly larger than the pipe diameter used to clean the inner wall), through the entire length of pipe. When this job was finished, the pipe was clean and the "pig" was unharmed and reusable.
At a U.S. northeastern refinery, a process unit needed internal emergency repairs that required the entire unit to be held under a full
vacuum for an indeterminable amount of time. The King Vac on this job was released from duty
after successfully holding the required vacuum for 96 continuous hours.
| Dirt and debris can be pumped from under a building foundation creating a tunnel for plumbers to repair piping. (Hydro excavation) |
| When the suction loading hoses are completely submerged, the 3000 gallon debris tank could fill up in less than 60 seconds |
| When switching from Dry Vacuum loading to Wet Vacuum loading, the operator simply moves the loading hose to the new product |
| When operating at deep vacuum levels, the King Vac® maintains a high level of air flow and uses less than 200 horsepower |
| Standing at the rear of the unit, while product is being loaded, the decibel level is well under 85dBA |
The King Vac earns its reputation on a daily basis. It also earns substantial profits for companies that buy them.
The complete vacuum system can be mounted to a tandem axle or tri-axle chassis. As with the DOMINATOR® and BERRINGER®, the KING VAC® can be mounted to the customer supplied chassis or to a new chassis from our inventory.
