AIR-VAC Mobile Vacuum Excavator enables a non-intrusive method of excavation that uses compressed air to loosen up the ground, followed by suction to remove the loose material. This is often referred to as non-destructive digging (NDD).
Using an AIR-VAC machine for excavation can significantly reduce spoil and dust because all of the extracted material is sucked directly into sealed collection chambers on the machine.
Commonly used on projects near utilities, in confined spaces and high-risk areas, the AIR-VAC provides safe & efficient excavation where services are known to be present and reduces the chance of a service strike by 100%. As it is a non-intrusive method of excavation it will safely uncover hidden services.

The AIR-VAC Mobile Vacuum Excavator and trailer can be towed by a standard transit van. Once at the dig site the ground is agitated with compressed air through the VAC-EX, AIR-EX lance, from a vehicle mounted compressor.
The ground can then be safely vacuumed into the AIR-VAC and stored in the 0.2m cubed integrated skip. The innovative turbine and filtration design ensure there is a high level of vacuum. The Air lance and dig pipe are manufactured from HDPE Plastic which will insulate the user from any live underground cable.
Diamond Hire and Sales hire the AIR-VAC nationwide across the UK.
Once full, the Air-VAC mobile vacuum excavator can be tracked to a tipping point and the skip raised to allow the debris to be tipped into a dumpy bag, machine bucket or low trailer.
