Vehicle Integrated Mechanized Drain Cleaning Machine

Vehicle-mounted mechanized drain cleaning machine which is thoroughly indigenously developed, integral and self-powered, developed with a noble intention to eradicate the manual scavenging process and also to provide one point solution for all sewer related problems like sewer chocking, overflowing manholes, damaged sewer pipelines, etc. The machine is equipped with many cutting-edge technologies and innovative ideas that make this machine to stand apart among the other similar equipments available in the market. It includes an innovative mechanical slurry water filtration system, re-using of filtered slurry water for the jetting process, a three-way gearbox unit to utilize the engine power for the system’s operation, automated hose reel guiding and disinfectant facility, an inbuilt feedback system and underwater camera based post drain cleaning inspection system, etc. makes the machine most effective and user friendly in negotiating many drain cleaning related challenges with ease and comfort.

This vehicle can serve for urban and local bodies with a population density of 10000. It can clean the chockage of upto 600mm sewer line. The System is equipped with slurry dispensing unit for sludge collection, a multistage mechanical filtration, a high-pressure jetting system, a D silting mechanism, and post-cleaning inspection unit. The main features of the system are to collect the sludge (Grey) water, filtration of the sludge (grey) water for utilisation in the chockage cleaning, the high-pressure multi-jet cleaning system to suit the tough Indian chockage conditions, and the hydraulically operated D-silting mechanism with moveable type collection bucket to remove the slit from the manhole and collect in the collection bucket, which can be easily dumped in the relevant place. All the above sub-systems are mounted in the BS-VI chassis very compactly, and its gets operated pneumatically to make the operations easy and safe.

The System is used to handle the blockage caused by plastic and other non-biodegradable domestic thrown-away items, debris, intrusion of tree roots, etc.

The CSIR-CMERI developed machine is designed for up to 5,000 people density, i.e. best suitable up to 300 mm diameter and up to a 100-metre length of the sewer system.

Features:

1. Efficient and quick: These machines can clear blockages in underground drainage systems quickly and efficiently, reducing downtime and costs.
2. Saves labor costs: These machines require minimal labor, which reduces labor costs.
3. Easy to operate: These machines are easy to operate and require minimal training.
4. Compact: These machines are mounted on vehicles and are easy to transport to different locations, making them ideal for urban and rural areas.

1. Completely indigenously developed, vehicle mounted self powered and integral system.
2. Innovative vehicle mounted mechanical filtration unit for effective filtration of grey (slurry) water to be utilized in high pressure jetting process.
3. High pressure jetting unit that re-uses the filtered grey (slurry) water for jetting operation and saves a large amount of fresh water being wasted for the jetting purpose, which is generally in practice among other machines.
4. Un-interrupted execution of drain cleaning process without any stoppage for re-filling of fresh water for jetting operation.
5. The entire system gets power from the vehicle’s engine, which makes the system a self-adequate and independent of any external power sources for functioning and can be deployed anywhere at any time.
6. Automated hose reel guiding mechanism with disinfectant unit to provide a safe & comfortable working environment for the operator.
7. The state-of-the-art in-cabin, on-time feedback display system empowers the system controller from the vehicle’s cabin to monitor the system’s functioning and make effective decisions based on the situation.
8. The underwater camera-based post-drain cleaning inspection system provides a complete evaluative report about the effectiveness of the sewer cleaning process, including inside health analysis of underground sewer pipelines, such as any cracks/damages, etc.
9. High Pressure Jetting System with recycled water
10. Equipped With a Safety Operator feedback system
11. Post Cleaning Inspection camera system (self-propelled type)
12. Disinfectant System for jetting hose disinfection.
13. Appropriate filtration and Re-utilization of drain Slurry for jetting
14. Indigenous, cost-effective & Reliable machine
15. Developed in BS VI chassis (Green and Clean India)
