Camel Features

  • Water tanks are constructed of 3/8" (9.5mm) rotationally molded polyethylene with ultraviolet stabilizer and can hold up to 1500 gallons (5,677L).
  • Collector bodies are constructed of a full 1/4" (19mm) Exten abrasion resistant steel designed to withstand vacuum levels of 367" (9322mm) of water and offer debris capacities of 6.5 cu. yd. (4.9m3); 10.8 cu. yd. (8.2m3); and 16 cu. yd. (12.2m3)
  • Hydraulic boom with 210º rotation, vertical lift up to 16' (4.88m) and lifting capacity up to 1000lbs.  8" (203.2mm) I.D. vacuum systems are available with extra long radius heavy duty steel elbow. Hydraulic boom extensions of  8' (2.44m) are available with a true telescopic tube inside tube design.
  • A front-mounted control console make it easy and safe to operate many functions including the unit’s water and vacuum pumps; PTO on/off switches; water flow control; electronic engine throttle; water pressure gauge; reel directional valve; reel speed control; and pendant and handgun connections.
  • Full diameter ejector unloading system completely and safely removes all debris from collector body with minimal cleanup and the internal body flush-out system makes this cleanup fast and easy at the dumpsite. Automatic stainless steel body level shut-off float ball system prevents overfilling collector body. The ejector unloading system also allows you to dewater excess liquid using the 6" (152.4 mm) drain from the collector body. Removing the liquids creates additional capacity for the waste solids and means fewer trips to dump site which increases your overall productivity.

    For operators that prefer a dump body unit, the Camel is also available with the standard “tip-to-dump” method that raises the body up to a 50º angle with a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.
  • All controls for discarding debris can be located behind the driver side or passenger side of the chassis cab.
  • Single engine drive allows vacuum, water and hydraulic pump to operate while transmission is in NEUTRAL. Water pump is driven by a front crank shaft mounted, closed loop hydrostatic system offering infinite variable control without effecting the vacuum system. Vacuum pump is driven by 10-bolt hot shift PTO. Split shaft transfer case drive is also available.
    The single engine design also results in lower sound levels, reduced maintenance requirements and less fuel consumption.
  • Save time and cost associated with replenishing your water with Camel Waste Water Recycling System. The Camel was the first to offer the industry a waste water recycling system and it’s still the best available on the market today. Simply fill the system with fresh water and, true to its name, the Camel will allow you to work all day without the need to replenish your water supply.  Learn more about the water recycling system by viewing our Camel Product Demonstration video.
  • Hydro Excavating Options are available on the Camel that can make the unit the most versatile piece of equipment in your fleet. Water heaters, cartridge filters, dig tubes and specially-designed water lances turn your combination unit into a powerful hydro excavating unit.
  • Hose Reel (mid-ship) Mid-mounted, self-aligning hydraulically driven, heavy-duty, sewer hose reel with a capacity of up to 600' (182.8m) of 1" (25.4mm) sewer hose with hose reel tensioning and automatic level wind systems make this the easiest reel to operate and most productive unit available.
  • Hose Reel (front-mounted) 180º manual rotating hose reel, with capacity up to 1000' (304.8m) of 1" (25.4mm).
  • A positive displacement vacuum pump ensures maximum vacuum and air flow at all engine speeds and allows material to be vacuumed above or below the surface. Click here for more informatin on the Camel's vacuum system.
  • Utilizes continuous flow and pressure, a positive displacement triplex water pump produces smooth-acting, surge-free flow and pressure for maximum cleaning and reduced fatigue on the water system. Click here for more information on the Camel's water system.
  • Tailgate is secured by a manual latch system or an optional hydraulic latch system.
  • Rugged aluminum tubing with storage of up to 48’(14.6m) on rear door with hydraulic fold down tube rack.
  • Customize your own storage for tools and accessories with a wide selection of different sized storage boxes.
