Here we have a sensitive excavation site that involved laying ducting and high voltage cables across the main site.
The length of this job covered approximately a four week period using our 25 tonne vacuum /suction excavator with spark arresting equipment and a power arm to enable greater movement of the hose. Non conductive nozzles were designed specifically for the job in varying lengths to enable a range of depths for digging - up to 2 metres in depth in some areas.
The specifically designed nozzles allowed a safer approach for the operator as it prevented the need for him to be in the excavation site, instead he was able to operate the hose and nozzles from the edge of the excavation site using the remote control device. This also eliminated the requirements for the necessity of confined space operative card holders.
