Municipal crews tasked with exercising water valves can put away their shovels and get off their knees when they combine the tidy, targeted, high-pressure spot-cleaning capabilities of a Ring-O-Matic vacuum-excavation machine with one of the Spin Doctor valve exercising units from Hurco Technologies. Ring-O-Matic, an authorized distributor of Hurco exercisers, offers three Hurco models for its vac-ex machines to maintain valves 4 to 60 inches that minimize operator fatigue and enhance worker safety.
All three Hurco valve exercising models can be mounted to any Ring-O-Matic vac-ex machine. Hurco booms have up to 13 feet of reach with 270-degree side-to-side swing, allowing operators to access multiple valves in close range without repositioning the rig. Operators simply clean debris from in and around the valve fixture with the power of a Ring-O-Matic hydro-excavator and then connect the Spin Doctor exerciser to the valve. The vac-ex machine serves as the power plant throughout the application. Operators can conduct valve and hydrant exercising up to 100 feet away.
