When it comes to tackling tough and stubborn blockages in drains, sewers, and pipes, having the right equipment can make all the difference. Andy Guest Jetters, a renowned name in the industry, offers a wide range of jetting machines designed to handle these challenges efficiently. Among the lineup, the 5-Series Van Pack jetting machine stands out as our most powerful and versatile solution. In this blog, we'll explore the key features that make this machine a preferred choice for professionals in the sewer and drainage industry.

1. High-Pressure Jetting Performance

The key feature of the 5-Series Van Pack is its impressive high-pressure jetting capabilities. With a pressure capacity of 3,000 PSI (pounds per square inch) and water flow of up to 16 GPM (gallons per minute), this powerful machine can handle a wide range of blockages, from grease and sludge to tree roots and debris. The machine offers variable flow rates, allowing operators to adjust the water flow to suit the specific requirements of the job. This flexibility is essential for different applications, ensuring that the machine can be used for both delicate pipe-cleaning tasks and more aggressive blockage removal.

2. Robust Construction

The Andy Guest Jetters 5-Series Van Pack is built to withstand the rigours of heavy-duty use. Its robust construction ensures durability, making it a long-term investment for any business. Whether you're dealing with routine maintenance or tackling challenging blockages, you can rely on the machine's solid build to stand the test of time.

3. Compact Design

The 5-Series Van Pack is designed to fit comfortably in a 3.5t commercial van or other service vehicle. Its compact size and efficient layout make it easy to install, saving valuable space in your work vehicle for additional drainage equipment and storage space. The lightweight unit has a dry weight of just 670kg, making it much lighter than many competitor machines, with the added bonus of savings on the fuel used in transit.

4. User-Friendly Controls

Andy Guest Jetters places a strong emphasis on user-friendliness in their equipment, and the 5-Series Van Pack is no exception. The machine features intuitive push-button controls that are easy to learn and operate. The unit can be supplied with a 5-channel radio remote for safe single-person machine operation when at a distance from the machine.

5. Versatility: Space-Saving Machine Configurations

The 5-Series can also be supplied in a space-saving stack configuration. Unlike conventional van-packs, our stack jetters occupy less than half the width while delivering equivalent performance. This design is a top choice among contractors seeking to optimise space and payload within multipurpose vehicles. For enhanced weight distribution, water tanks can also be mounted separately.

6. Efficient Fuel Consumption

The 5-Series Van Pack is designed with fuel efficiency in mind, boasting an industry-leading Yanmar 4TNV88CC 4-cylinder common rail, direct-injection diesel engine that delivers exceptional performance. Yanmar's direct-injection technology not only reduces emissions but also enhances the engine's fuel economy and power output.

7. Smart Technology

The engine is equipped with Yanmar's cutting-edge smart engine technology as a standard feature. This innovation empowers operators with precise monitoring capabilities for the machine's 4-cylinder diesel engine. The integrated control panel showcases an interactive LED display that offers real-time insights into essential engine metrics, including RPMs, temperatures, pressures, and operational hours. Furthermore, the panel provides advanced machine diagnostics, proactively alerting operators to potential issues and thereby enhancing overall user safety.

8. Environmental Credentials - Diesel Engine with DPF

One of the notable environmental credentials of the 5-Series is its diesel engine equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The DPF is a vital component that reduces harmful emissions from the diesel engine. It captures and filters out particulate matter (soot) and other pollutants from the exhaust gases, significantly reducing the machine's environmental impact. Continuous monitoring by the engine's assist and reset regeneration functions ensures optimal jetting performance while maintaining stringent emissions compliance.

9. Reliability and Low Maintenance

Professional-grade equipment demands reliability, and the 5-Series Van Pack delivers. Using only tried and tested components, such as the Triplex plunger pump, ensures the reliability of the 5-Series. As part of our aftersales services, we offer regular maintenance and repair services designed to keep your machine in optimal condition. With proper care and maintenance, this machine can serve your business for years without significant issues, minimising downtime and repair costs.

10. Safety Features

Safety is a top priority in any industrial setting. The 5-Series Van Pack is equipped with standard safety features to protect both operators and the machine. These features include an emergency stop button, pressure unloader valve, hydraulic hose reel and guidance. All Andy Guest jetters include an anti-freeze valve inlet to simplify the process of protecting your machine from damage due to freezing conditions.

In Conclusion

In conclusion, the Andy Guest Jetters 5-Series Van Pack jetting machine is a reliable, versatile, and powerful tool for professionals in the sewer and drainage cleaning industry. Its robust construction, high-pressure jetting capabilities, compact design, and user-friendly controls make it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications.
