For cleaning water reservoirs and water towers
Traditional cleaning processes meant that water towers and drinking-water reservoirs had to be emptied and manually cleaned or divers sent down. In both options, the reservoir has to be taken offline, which can lead to major disruptions in the main supply system. Emptying a reservoir is time consuming and cleaning is labor intensive. Sending divers down in drinking water also entails a risk for contaminating the water.
The VR-600 is remote controlled and equipped with rotating brushes and a powerful pump that directly pumps out all loosened sediment – without raising turbidity in the reservoir. The VR-600 is equipped with a video camera that facilitates inspection of the inside of the reservoir. The entire cleaning process is documented and the customer receives both a videotape and a written report.

For cleaning sand filters and large basins
The YT-800 is an electricity-operated remote controlled submersible robot for cleaning large underwater surfaces, such as the bottom of a sand filter. The powerful pump and wide nozzle make it possible to clean large areas in a relatively short time. The sediment is pumped through a hose to a designated point of discharge, such as a sand treatment station. Traditional cleaning using loading machines, conveyor belts and such require costly investments and manual filter cleaning is very labor intensive. Both methods require that the filter is drained and taken offline. With the YT-800, cleaning can be carried out during full operation.
Easily operated by one person, the YT-800 is remote controlled using a radio hand box. The vehicle can be equipped with underwater cameras to facilitate long-distance operation from a van or operations room for example. Using the YT-800 reduces cleaning costs and does not interrupt distribution. YT-800 has only electrical motors and uses no dangerous oils or chemicals that can damage the filter.
Other applications for the YT-800 include cleaning infiltration dams and surface cleaning large outdoor basins.
