HELICOPTER 360-6 TANDEM

The name says it all. The HELICOPTER 360-6 features an unbeatable scope of operation. Like a helicopter, it rotates 360° around the vehicle in order to bring the suction and jetting hoses into position simultaneously, as well as being able to reach areas of difficult accessibility. You don’t need to give a thought to the suction or jetting hose, whether rotating, extending in or out, lifting or lowering the boom – both hoses are guided automatically.

Operation sites are often situated in areas with challenging traffic conditions, where manhole access is available but there is nowhere to park the vehicle. The extreme flexibility of the HELICOPTER 360- 6 means it can be parked away from the traffic while still allowing access to the manhole. When working in narrow passageways, the boom can be rotated to the front of the vehicle, making complicated shunting of the vehicle a thing of the past.

The HELICOPTER 360-6 unites the suction and jetting hoses in one compact boom. 26 m of DN 125 or 20 m of DN 150 suction hose are stored on a horizontal hose reel. Up to 500 m of DN 25 or 300 m of DN 32 high-pressure hose is stored on a separate hose reel and fed through guide channels into the boom. The combination of hoses enables working to greater depths as well as allowing longer stretches of sewer pipeline to be cleaned.

This boom system, calculated by simulation, is able to withstand a high degree of load pressure. In addition to working areas to the front and rear of the vehicle, it is also possible to work up to 6 m to either side of the vehicle without difficulty. An overload protection system is installed to safeguard the boom against damage.

Operation of the HELICOPTER 360-6 is as easy as using a smartphone – via radio or cable remote control or the touch screen in the MU-COCKPIT. The handling of the boom is quite an experience, while setting up and carrying out the actual sewer cleaning operation becomes much easier.

Safety while working is important. In dangerous traffic conditions, one can simply work in front of the vehicle. In difficult aerosol conditions or in bad weather, the vehicle can be operated from inside the cab. Noise levels become more acceptable when working from inside the cab, or from a distance of up to 6 m from the side of the HELICOPTER 360-6.

Versatile operating options, easy handling and high-performance capabilities as well as a parallel reduction in the operator workload combine to make your sewer cleaning vehicle extremely efficient. You save time for additional assignments, so that the flexible boom system pays for itself in a short time.
