Vacuworx has made a big change to its lineup of vacuum lifting systems the company says will save its customers some serious change in return.
With its new H models, introduced at the World of Concrete show earlier this month, Vacuworx vacuum lifters now driven by hydraulic power rather than a separate diesel power source. “It’s tied directly into the hydraulics of the excavator,” says Vacuworx’s Randy Hayes. The change should generate an estimated $10,000 in fuel savings per year, Hayes said.
The change won’t cost customers anymore up front either, Hayes said, with no increase in price to the MC 5 and RC Series systems the H model is available for.
In addition to fuel savings, Hayes said the H models offer quick couplers, improved start up performance in cold weather and a lighter operating weight, allowing further reach and greater total lift capacities, over their diesel powered predecessors.
Here are the details on the new hydraulically driven MC 5H and RC Series H models:
