Vacuum excavation that’s portable and quiet

A side view of the 275XV. CEA introduces its newest truck-mounted vacuum excavator, featuring a compact low profile, high visibility, and stability in rough locations.

Known for its expertise in trailer-mounted vacuum excavators, RingO-Matic has now expanded its range to include the new 275VX, offering a high-powered vacuum excavator within a compact and practical design. This new machine provides a 946 L spoil tank and 600CFM blower, powered by a 31hp Deutz diesel engine.

The 275VX is the perfect machine for many applications including hydro-excavation, underground utility location, waste clean-up, municipality use, concrete slurry management, micro-tunnelling, storm drain cleaning, treatment plant cleaning, utility pole setting, and many other tasks.

CEA’s underground product manager Scott O’Hare says the 275VX has been designed specifically for the Australian market.

“Given its compact design, it is suitable for a large range of applications across commercial and residential spaces. While it’s more compact, the 275VX doesn’t compromise on power, making it the perfect choice for those considering the purchase of a trailer mounted vacuum excavator,” he says.

Suitable for truck or trailer mount configurations, the 275VX showcases the diversity of the Ring-O-Matic vacuum excavator line-up.

The machines will be available through CEA on 4.5T ATM trailers, or on single skid mounts for truck mounting.

Powered by a Deutz 31hp engine, the 275VX offers unmatched performance and reliability, while the heavy-duty frame, large axle capacity and the Roots 600CFM vacuum pump blowers ensure the 275VX is designed to withstand the most rugged conditions.

The compact, low profile of the 275VX provides clear visibility for the operator as well as stability in rough locations. Fitted with a premium silencer package, the 275VX delivers minimal noise, making it ideal for applications in densely populated areas.

The 275VX’s balanced design provides optimum tongue weight, reducing wear on the operator’s truck. The machine comes standard with reverse flow, providing fast tank emptying and the ability to blow obstructions out of the vacuum hose, as well as backflush the filters for quick and easy cleaning. The 275VX is also fitted with a unique single handle door latch design for easier, faster opening and closing.

Key features of the 275VX include: Controls and remotes: The controls located on the front curb side provide easy access with a lockable cabinet and magnetic remote that can extend if operating from a distance is required. Water tank: The single water tank can hold 378 L and also includes a low water shutoff feature. A single water tank provides better reliability and less maintenance for operators. Reverse flow: The 275VX offers reverse flow standard, which allows the operator to pressurise the tank for easy offloading and assists in clearing hose obstructions. Rear door: The spoil tank door is mechanically locked with a single-lever spider door locking system that opens hydraulically. The hydraulic door opens to 75 degrees, which provides the industry’s widest opening rear door in its class, ensuring better access for easier cleaning. Baghouse filtration: The baghouse filtration that follows the cyclo-separator filtration has a washable and reusable filter that can be easily blown out and cleaned after use.

The first 275VX truck-mounted vacuum excavators will arrive in Australia later this year.
