New Skid Inspired by the Gulf Disaster

The GapVax SV-10 Skid-mounted WetVac debuted at the Clean Gulf Expo in October 2010. Inspired by the Gulf Oil Spill, this GapVax unit is made to be put on a boat or barge and continuously offload liquids while vacuuming; offloading into a holding tank on the vessel carrying the skid or into roll-off containers. With that said, there are a wide variety of tasks -- water blaster recovery, hydro-excavation, catch basins and more! This SV-10 skid contains a 50 HP diesel engine, a control package for the engine, a Roots type vacuum pump rated 920 CFM, 15" Hg, exhaust silencer and more. The Pump off system will transfer the fluids from the 200 gallon receiver tank while vacuuming. Contact your local sales rep for more info or Click here Videos to come! This skid will be at the SSPC show in Vegas Jan. 31-Feb 3, 2011.
