Our specialist designed Road Rail Vehicles (RRV) are equipped with the latest drainage attachments including powerful air moving vactor (nicknamed “The Sucker”) and high pressure water jetting equipment (nicknamed “The Jetter”). Each on track plant (OTP) machine is equipped with various attachments and tools including various jet heads and extension.
Access and Egress On Tracking
Each RRV machine is certified with an Engineering Compliance Certificate (ECC) and risk assessed with a Product Approval (PA) certificate.
Our approach to track drainage has always been to offer independent vactor and jetter attachments of separate host machines, in order to work independently with in a work site.
Using individual OTP rather than a combined vactor and jetting drainage machine has several benefits. These include:
Independent working within worksites – There is no holding these machines back, the vactor leads the works ahead of the HPWJ jetting team. removing ballast, debris and clay from the catchpits, exposing the pipes and cleaning the silt trap below. The high pressure water jetting RRV can work at its own pace jetting clear the connecting pipes between the catchpits or out towards an outfall.
Mix and Match machine options – depending on the work scope the attachments can be selected to complete the work. There is an option to have multiple vactor attachments or multiple jetting attachments or single machine options. On Line On track planning team can help to select the right equipment to complete the works timely and effectively.
Emergency recovery – regardless of machine choice we always provide a second machine for recovery purposes. In the unfortunate event of an emergency breakdown all machines are compatible to recover each other.
