Our Industrial Tank Cleaning Equipment
We offer the Lombrico S and XXS remote-controlled tractor crawlers, capable of taking vacuum hoses into confined spaces. Applications for the Lombrico include:
- Cleaning industrial tanks
- Under live conveyors
- Pipes and culverts
- Mining operations
- Dry and wet plant-cleaning operations
- High-temperature or hazardous fume applications
- High-risk areas that threaten employee health and safety
Each intrinsically safe, double-tracked Lombrico unit uses hydraulic power and operates up to 240 ft [73 m] from the attached vacuum truck. The standard configuration allows for a 6” [150 mm] vacuum hose, but we make other sizes available on request.
All units carry mounted cameras and can include many optional attachments, including various-shaped suction nozzles, water-blasting nozzles, augers and material-moving blades.
The unit can operate remotely from our climate-controlled operators trailer or be provided as a stand-alone unit to fit specific needs requiring a minimal footprint and simple reset, as your job site dictates.
