Lease of 4 Hydro Vacuum Excavators
Published
Description
NWL Network Maintenance teams have a requirement for 4 vacuum excavators to assist with their repairs and maintenance activities. The vehicle's primary use is to facilitate the excavation of (and therefore repair of) burst water mains in which ground conditions are routinely waterlogged, and the machines need to be able to cope with both water and waterlogged excavated material. The excavators will be used extensively by Network Maintenance teams on repairs and maintenance activity, with clear safety and productivity benefits which should include: • Utility damage avoidance - safe excavation around electric cables • Manual handling reduction - uses water lance in lieu of manual digging • Productivity enhancements - excavation time reduced substantially • Customer experience - sites are cleaner and tidier. Interruption times reduced. Lot 1: NWL require 4 lease Hydro-Vacuum Safe Excavation vehicles with the following specification: • Must be able to vacuum water • Use a water pressure lance • Mounted on a 18 tonne chassis (or less) NWL require vehicles that can provide a quick and efficient form of safe excavation. The vehicle's primary use is to facilitate the excavation of (and therefore repair of) burst water mains in which ground conditions are routinely waterlogged, and the machines need to be able to cope with both water and waterlogged excavated material. Please note that Air Vacuum excavators are of no use to NWL. The use of air lances do not cut through or breakdown clay and then saturated spoil and large amounts of water can blocks filters. This reduces suction and performance and the washing and cleaning of the filters in these air-vacuum excavators is also too time consuming and costly, rendering them unpractical and not financially viable for day in day out use. NWL require vacuum excavators which have been designed to use pressurised water to break the ground down, effectively using water to dislodge the soil. Water is inherently better at cutting through hard firm clay. Wet suction machines also do not require filters as water naturally suppresses dust, meaning they do not suffer from this reduced suction performance, no matter how saturated the spoil is.
