2020 Sewer Equipment HX-12 18 ft Hydro-Excavation Truck
Hydro-excavation trades raw flow rate for the precision that PSI and boom control deliver. A 12 GPM pump at 2,500 PSI cuts through clay and compacted soil cleanly while the operator manages exactly where that water goes, reducing collateral damage and rework on congested job sites.
Precise excavation with 2,500 PSI water system and 320 degree boom radius on tight job sites
12-yard tank capacity and shorter overall length than comparable units reduce cycle time and site footprint
18 to 23 foot telescoping reach covers deep and distant utility lines from a single setup
Hydraulic-only operation, no computer controls, speeds repair and keeps downtime short
Full-opening rear door and hot/cold water system handle fast unloading and year-round material prep
A 12-yard debris tank paired with an 18 to 23 foot telescoping boom and full 320 degree working radius lets operators cover more ground without repositioning. The DIG DEEP boom design and full-opening rear door cut load and unload time. Simple hydraulic controls, no computer systems, mean faster diagnostics when something needs adjustment. This new 2020 unit (Serial 8273) runs 10 GPM at 2,500 PSI, with an optional 18 GPM system available if higher flow work enters the rotation. Hot and cold water capability handles season-round debris softening and rinsing.
Risk of hitting buried gas, electric, or fiber lines with mechanical digging

When a mainline blocks up, you need a truck that starts reliably and stays running on the job, not one that's waiting on a computer reboot or a part...
