Suction excavation is a cutting-edge and minimally invasive method for removing soil and removing soil or other materials from the ground using a highly-powered suction. It is sometimes referred to as ‘Suction Excavation’. Call us for more information
Applications of Vacuum Excavation
It is used in various industries including construction, utilities, and more and in many sectors including Nuclear, Airports, Sub-Stations and others. This method is a much safer and much more efficient alternative to traditional digging methods which have been used in the past. In the rapid changing landscape of major construction projects, the selection of equipment and expertise is a key decision that impacts the safety and success of every project. For
How does Vacuum or Suction Excavation Work?
Vacuum excavation is conducted using a System mounted on a truck which includes a vacuum pump, debris tank, and several hoses. The process begins by identifying the excavation site, and after marking it the vacuum excavation equipment swings into action by using a high-pressured air lance to break up the soil. As the soil is removed, the buried utilities become visible and can be checked visually, the loosened soil and debris are then vacuumed up through a big hose into a skip which is mounted on to the Vac-Ex machine for disposal or later reuse.
The excavated area is left neat and tidy, prepared for further examination or installation. This method permits our team to carry out excavation close to underground utilities, and other sensitive areas with precision, lessening the likelihood of any harm.
Advantages of Vacuum Excavation
There are multiple benefits to vacuum excavation.
- Enhanced Safety – by uncovering buried utilities without any harm, vacuum excavation significantly lowers the chance of accidents and utility strikes, ensuring the safety of workers and the existing infrastructure in the vicinity. Also, its ability to do bespoke digging with minimal disturbance to the surrounding area.
- Operational Efficiency – adhering to tight deadlines on completing a project and reducing costs by promptly uncovering buried utilities and making the excavation process simple. Its eco-friendliness means it is producing minimal noise, disruption and dust compared to traditional excavation methods, decreasing its ecological footprint.
