Vac-Con Inc. recently announced the addition of an exciting new option to enhance its venerable two-engine design combination machine: a gasoline-fueled auxiliary engine.
This new option can replace the soon-to-be-required Tier IV diesel engine with an intelligent and economical alternative. The Ford V-10 gasoline engine meets all horsepower requirements for all water pump options from 30 GPM to 120 GPM and up to 3,000 PSI, while offering a compact and relatively lightweight installation; when combined with an adequate fuel supply for a full day’s operation, it weighs no more than a comparable diesel. In addition, the engine can be modified to operate on LP, NG, CNG, or LNG, as required. This reliable option allows operators to choose the flexibility of two-engine design without paying premium prices for expensive Tier IV diesel engines, while being environmentally responsible in meeting all 50 state emission requirements, and has an added advantage: It’s incredibly quiet when compared with diesel power!
