МВУ-18000

Vacuum Track Cleansing Machine is intended to carry out local collection of contaminated macadam from the railway tracks without removal of assembled rails and sleepers; to clean turnouts, grade crossings, tunnels, bridges, water passages and drainage channels of railway track; to dig up electric and signal cables; to excavate trenches and pits; to unload bulk materials. The machine is intended for use at railway network having track gauge of 1520 mm, with rails of types Р50, Р65 and Р75 mounted onto reinforced-concrete and wooden sleepers, at all types of rail fastening and all types of ballast, under conditions of moderate climate at surrounding air temperature from +35 up to +4 ºС and from −2 up to −10 ºС.
