Super Products offers a safe, efficient and versatile alternative to traditional digging equipment with the Mud Dog hydroexcavator product line. The Mud Dog is designed for operator convenience and consistent performance in the harshest environments.
The Mud Dog is available with 12-yard or 16-yard debris capacity and has 1,500- to 2,000-gallon water tank capacity to meet the challenges of a variety of applications, excavation projects and job site conditions.
SAFETY FEATURES
These units come standard featuring tilt-ejection unloading, which provides fast, thorough removal of debris from the collector body while ensuring all liquids are cleared quickly and efficiently. It even functions efficiently when unloading in an up-slope, nose-down position, allowing for thorough safe removal of debris and providing easier tank washdowns and cleanups.
Backup cameras and alarms are also built into all units to notify the entire crew that the unit is moving. Additional safety solutions include vacuum breaker, tailgate props, visual and audio alarms (such as when the boom or the body is still up), and emergency stop switches.
VARIABLE-SPEED EFFICIENCY
The Mud Dog operates using variable speed, meaning the blower and water pump can run at different speeds while operating. This enables the user to work as efficiently as possible on the job site by adjusting the speed for the specific function it needs at the time. It also allows for fuel efficiency because you do not have to run full rpm to vacuum up the debris.
The storage of tubes and nozzles allows for easy operator access. The operator does not need to spend a lot of time to find and attach the necessary items to perform the job, according to the manufacturer.
The water tank on the Mud Dog is a quick-filling system that replenishes a 1,500-gallon water supply in less than 10 minutes. It is also made out of a non-cross-linked polyethylene, which is repairable and a weight-saving material.
A VERSATILE MACHINE
Super Products offers an air-excavation option for the Mud Dog, which allows the operator to always choose the best application — water or air — for each job. Hydroexcavation uses high-pressure water to break up solid materials and is effective in any soil condition, say Super Products representatives. Meanwhile, air excavation uses compressed air to break up soils and materials and is most effective in less compacted soils.
All Mud Dogs are equipped with a rear-mounted boom that can reach 27 feet and has 335-degree rotation and can also move in a 45-degree upward and 25-degree downward pivot. This allows for versatility within the dig areas so that the units do not need to constantly move and readjust the position.
Additionally, Mud Dogs come standard with a boom light package that enables working safely in dark environments.
All Mud Dog units come with hardwired pendant and wireless remove controls that operate boom functions as well as vent door, kill switch, vacuum level, heater, water pump and dump controls. The wireless remote control allows for the operator to be right at the excavation point and not toward the front of the truck.
Super Products, an Alamo Group Co., is a leading manufacturer of hydroexcavators and other vacuum trucks for a variety of industry sectors.
