The Elastec PACS municipal vacuum trailers are durable, easy-to-use vacuum trailer systems designed for municipal use. Easy to tow and maneuver in congested workspaces, these rugged vacuum systems are purpose-built to clean up oil, liquids, solids and sludge.
Elastec trailer-mounted vacuum systems are designed to go where large vacuum trucks can’t and for jobs where vacuum trucks are not cost-effective. Certain areas, like dense urban streets or small rural access roads, aren’t always accessible by larger vacuum trucks. The Elastec PACS is a suitable system for these scenarios.
Operator safety
These units were designed with worker safety in mind. The center-mounted controls enable operation from both sides of the unit to keep workers away from traffic. The optional boom arm and water jetter allow for potholing and hydroexcavation jobs.
Considerable time can be saved by using hydroexcavation while inspecting lines with minimal ground disturbance. Uncovering buried utilities with the PACS system can save money while avoiding the logistics of using heavy equipment. It also keeps private property intact.
