What is it?
The BarrowVac™ is among the most useful and most sought
after accessories in the Ground-Hog™ line. As another "first"
from Excavac, it's patented technology provides the advantages
of a portable or auxillary collection vessel. This allows the
operator to perform vacuum excavations and backfilling in remote
areas and sites the are inaccessible to a truck. This is very
useful for excavating in basements of buildings. Auxillary uses
include pulling materials into separate or larger vessels by
utilizing a separate vacuum source.
How does it work?
The BarrowVac™ unit is connected to the main vacuum system,
then taken up to 300 feet from the main system to perform the
excavation. Because it can go anywhere a wheelbarrow can, vacuum
excavation is now possible in virtually any situation that is
inaccessible by truck. It can be filled and emptied in a matter
of minutes, allowing the operator to conveniently and selectively
dump the excavated material in close proximity to the excavation
site, or simply transport it elsewhere by wheelbarrow.
