Cummins X12 engine for vacuum trucks

With up to 500 horsepower and 1,695 lb-ft torque, the Cummins X12 is ideal for septic and sewer vacuum trucks. It provides a high power-to-weight ratio and is also the lightest engine in its class, weighing 400 to 600 pounds less than other engines. The lightweight and durable X12 carries more liquid waste without sacrificing throttle response for frequent stop-and-go duty cycles. A new Cummins engine brake also strengthens stopping power over the ISX12, lengthening service brake life. It is fully PTO capable and, through Connected Diagnostics, X12-powered trucks can be wirelessly connected to Cummins product experts for immediate diagnosis of engine system faults. www.cummins.com.

RIDGID SeeSnake Compact C40 and M40 camera reelS

The SeeSnake Compact C40 and M40 camera reels from RIDGID are powered by TruSense technology. Both camera reels feature a 0.98-inch self-leveling camera head, 131 feet of push cable and are compatible with RIDGID CSx series Wi-Fi-enabled monitors. A quick-release docking system works with the new CS6x Versa digital reporting monitor, and a sturdy metal frame provides a solid base that makes it easy to push and retrieve the cable for fast, efficient use. The C40’s flexible push cable works for small/restricted branch lines with tight turns and shorter runs in main laterals, while the M40’s moderately stiff push cable suits longer runs in mainlines and branch lines. 800-769-7743; www.ridgid.com.
