Reliable vacuum generation is at the heart of many mobile and stationary waste management operations, from septic services to general sanitation. Specialized vacuum pumps are engineered to provide powerful and consistent suction, capable of handling demanding conditions and a variety of materials. Units like those below feature robust construction, efficient cooling systems and durable components like long-lasting vanes to ensure extended service life and minimal maintenance. Take a look at some production options.
Fruitland ELIM G-SMF344
The Fruitland ELIM G-SMF344 gas engine driven system is ideal for smaller to medium-sized mobile vacuum systems like portable restroom, light sanitation and septic trucks, and is suitable for single-axle mobile applications where a truck-driven PTO is not an option. The system includes a 14 hp Briggs and Stratton Vanguard gas engine, Fruitland RCF344 vacuum pump, standard bolt-in truck mount, secondary shutoff, muffler, air injection and an air filter. Options include pressure washers, air injection systems, additional oil tanks and flushing kits. 800-663-9003; www.fruitlandmanufacturing.com
Presvac Systems PV750
The Presvac Systems PV750 rotary vane pump is designed for continuous full-vacuum operation in extreme conditions. It offers 400 cfm at free air, 350 cfm at 15 inches Hg, a maximum vacuum of 27 inches Hg and maximum pressure of 35 psi. Dual fans and twin ballast ports are designed to efficiently cool the pump. The solid housing with deep cooling ribs allows greater heat transfer from the vacuum chamber. Aluminum fans and shrouding work like a heat exchanger.
