Good morning,
I thought I had posted something last evening in this thread, but I don't see it. ..lol
Bill Martins, it was nice talking with you in Nashville. Thank you for the invite to this board.
Yes, Bill, you saw right. There are 3 cords that go into a single cord.
The 3 cords are: the main vacuum system with APO pump (30 GPM), the high pressure pump (600 PSI max), and the heater. The heater needs 110V volts (less than 1 amp), to operate it's pilotless system, the gas valve, and the auto-relighter (in case a gust of wind came into the van).
Our patented heater is the star of our electric truckmount. It will provide all of the heat you would ever need for cleaning, without EVER turning it all the way up. It goes beyond other flow fired LP heaters, by using our exclusive patented after-burner circuit. The heater will heat water in the schedule 80 black pipe coils without having to key the wand every time. Once you key the wand, the heater senses it still needs to fire until the set temperature is reached. By doing this you have absolute even heat during the entire time you are cleaning, with no spikes, and no losing heat.
I had used the Little Giants for years (16 to be exact), and while they were hot, they still did not provide enough heat for dual wanding. The Little Giants (LG) also had a standing pilot that had to be lit, and extinguished by hand, after every job. Sometimes you forgot to turn the pilot OFF, and would drive to the next job with the pilot light on. With out patented heater, when you turn OFF your machine, the pilot goes OFF automatically.
The LG (little Giant) heater would also spike in the heat department because it was not flow fired, but would fire on it's own, until it was hot. Then it wouldn't come on again, until you were too low on heat. So there were spikes cleaning with the LG (Little Giant) heater.
The SAVAGE Electric Truckmount vacuum system is unique, in that the vacuum motor is direct coupled to the vacuum tank, using no hoses or bends. It's on top of the vacuum unit to dissipate any heat that is generated. The vacuum tank is as small as it can get, but uses a large diameter 7.2" Lamb vac motor, and has an amazing APO that will work for weeks without any attention to the APO filter inside the vacuum tank. WEEKS! In 10 years no one in the field has yet worn out the APO motor (draws less than 1 amp of power).
You can easily clean 100' from the truck and leave the vacuum unit inside the van.
We now have our new TWIN VACUUM FLOW available, for even higher vacuum power (capable of operating 250' from the van, and will run dual wands).
The vacuum tank is so compact (10" X 12" X 36" tall 42 lbs.), that if you have a great distance to the inside, you can lift the vac unit out of it's floor mounted base, and carry just it forward, closer to the wand.
Or, you can place our vacuum booster inline, closer to the wand. The vacuum booster has interchangable heads, if you want to have different vacuum dynamics.
A 2" tubed glided wand with 4 jets is now available for this system. I have tested it and am very pleased with it's cleaning ability, and dry times.
The pump design is our own, with a bullet proof chemical injection system using a truckmount Dwyer Meter, and safety features to protect the life of the pump seals.
There is the 600 PSI system, and also a 1200 PSI system. The 1200 PSI system requires a second cord.
When you have a job that is up several stories, or way inside, the vacuum tank, pressure pump, and optional dual element electric heater will load onto a 2 wheeled dolly, along with all the hoses, wand, and chem jug, for one trip in to clean. There is no need to have a truckmount, and a portable in your van because with our modular setup, you've got BOTH to tackle any job you might encounter with just one machine.
Thank you,
