Sewage vehicles are special municipal machines used for cleaning and emptying tanks for sewage and solid waste, such as septic tanks, grease separators, manholes, as well as removing sediment from sanitary and storm sewers.
The basic element of a sewage vehicle is the suction tank, which is usually made of plastic or stainless steel and can hold from several to tens of thousands of liters of waste. Various suction systems and hoses are mounted on the tank, allowing for the suction of waste from the tank or sewer.
Sewage vehicles are equipped with internal combustion engines, as well as hydraulic and pneumatic systems that allow for the control of suction devices and the opening and closing of valves on the tank. In some cases, sewage vehicles are equipped with a video camera that allows for monitoring and control of the cleaning process.
Sewage vehicles are available in various versions and sizes, depending on the user's needs. They can be small sewage vehicles with tank capacities of 3-4 thousand liters, designed for work in narrow and hard-to-reach places, as well as large sewage vehicles with tank capacities of up to 20 thousand liters, which are used for cleaning larger tanks and sewers.
In summary, sewage vehicles are important tools in the municipal industry, allowing for the cleaning and emptying of tanks for solid waste, as well as the removal of sediment from sanitary and storm sewers. Their choice depends on the user's needs and the scope of work performed.
