keeps out water, insects, and animals. It is the only pedes-
tal system using PLP’s patented segmented end plates and
silicone grommets for a GLC that’s positively sealed, eas-
ily re-entered, even reusable. Slack storage of uncut cable
allows the dome enclosure to be temporarily moved to a
more-suitable location for working, and the stackable spacer
system adapts the GLC to changing grade levels. Ideal for
new projects or updating existing FTTP systems, the GLC line
combines a sealed splice closure, pedestal, and handhole into
one compact design, making it very cost effective.
McLaughlin Introduces
Truck-Mounted Mega Vac
M
cLaughlin Group, a leading manufactur-
er of vacuum excavation systems, has
introduced a full line of truck-mounted
vacuum excavation systems with tank
capacities ranging from 1,600 to 3,000
gallons.
The Mega Vac line features two power plant options: a
67-horsepower Kubota diesel engine with a 1,025 cfm blower
or a 99-horsepower Kubota engine with 1,200 cfm. Both power
plant options produce 15 inches of mercury. A deep vacuum
power plant option is also available, featuring the 99-horse-
power engine with 1,200 cfm and 24 inches of mercury.
McLaughlin uses an industry-exclusive three-stage filtration
system that allows for both wet and dry vacuum excavation.
First, material enters the tank at 130 mph, and the large soil
particles lose velocity and fall out of the filtration system.
Next, the air moves to a pre-filter cyclone where the remain-
ing small particles drop into a collection tank. Finally, the
pre-filtered air enters a washable micron-poly filter that traps
any remaining fine particles.
All Mega Vacs feature a single skid design for ease of
installation on truck bodies, standard hydraulic lift cylinders
