Brandt teased its first hydrovac at ConExpo 2023, and now the company is bringing its full line to the US market. The HX120 and HX085 feature lightweight designs and large tank capacities, allowing operators to work efficiently within the maximum road-legal load weights. The real-time measurement of water and overall truck weight allows operators to keep a constant eye on tank capacities, thus reducing the risk of damage or overweight penalties on the road, the company says.

The HX120 offers 1,150 gallons of water tank capacity and 11.6 cubic yards of debris tank capacity, as well as a 28-foot boom reach with 340-degree rotation. Brandt says it is also the quietest hydrovac in its class, a plus in urban settings.

The HX085 delivers a 1,000-gallon water tank capacity, 8.4 cubic yards of debris tank capacity and a 24-foot boom reach. The flexible dig hose connects to a solid steel boom tube feeding the turret opening. The stronger, lighter boom design reduces tare weight and chances of plugging, while the replaceable wear liner minimises debris build up and increases the lifespan of the component compared to a standard rubber flex hose.
