Vermeer is highlighting the configuration options available on the VX75 trailer vacuum excavator, giving utility contractors a closer look at how each setup addresses different jobsite demands.
The VX75 delivers strong performance in the 75-hp (56-kW) trailer vacuum excavator class and is available in three configurations: standard, jetter and air.
Standard VX75 vacuum excavator configuration
The standard VX75 delivers 1,500-cfm (42.5-m³/min) vacuum performance from its Jurop® blower, generating 15-in Hg (381-mm Hg) of suction. A 5-in (12.7-cm) hydraulic boom reaches up to 14 ft (4.3 m), and an 8-gpm (30.3-L/min) water system operates at 3,000 psi (206.8 bar). Spoil tank capacities include 500-gal (1,893.7-L) and 800-gal (3,028-L).
This configuration is designed for contractors focused on potholing, daylighting and excavation work where maximum vacuum power is the priority.
VX75 trailer vac jetter configuration
The VX75 with jetter adds an 18-gpm at 3,000-psi (68.1-L/min at 206.8-bar) jetter system with 500 ft (152 m) of 0.5-in (1.3-cm) jetter hose, capable of cleaning pipes and culverts up to 12 in (30.5 cm) in diameter.
Because the jetter requires engine power, this configuration runs a 1,000-cfm (28.3-m³/min) blower with a 4-in (10.2-cm) boom. It is suited for contractors who need pipe cleaning capabilities alongside vacuum excavation without hauling separate equipment.
VX75 vacuum excavator air configuration
The VX75 with air includes a 180-cfm (5.1-m³/min), 110-psi (7.58 bar) air compressor for dry excavation and pneumatic tools. Like the jetter configuration, it uses a 1,000-cfm (28.3-m³/min) blower with a 4-in (10.2-cm) boom.
This setup addresses applications where water cannot be used or where contractors need to power pneumatic tools on site without a separate compressor.
Shared trailer vac features across all configurations
All VX75 models include a full-function remote control with start and stop capability, dual cyclone filtration with a two-micron poly filter, a cam-over hydraulic rear door that opens to 50 degrees and an in-tank cleanout system.
Trailer vac design and maintenance
Practical design improvements address everyday operator needs and simplify maintenance in the field. The extended tongue adds 18 in (45.7 cm) to improve turning radius when towing with larger trucks like stake bodies or small dump trucks. Driver-side fuel fill lets operators fuel both truck and trailer from the same side of the pump, and a lockable fuel door provides security when equipment is parked overnight or at remote locations.
The electric-over-hydraulic tongue jack includes a manual override and is positioned on the driver's side. Reverse pressure capability allows operators to offload material through the gate valve before opening the tank door, keeping the process cleaner and getting crews back to work faster.
For contractors working in colder regions, an optional 300,000-BTU hot box operates from its own fuel tank, extending the operating season without drawing from the trailer's main fuel supply.
A 3-in (7.6-cm) crossover line between tanks fills faster when using hydrant connections. Improved hose routing throughout the unit drains completely for fast winterization in cold climates. All boom grease points are located on one side, so daily maintenance is simplified.
"The VX75 combines the best design elements from prior product lines into a platform built specifically for utility work," said T.J. Steele, product manager for Vermeer MV Solutions. "Having three configurations available lets contractors match the machine to their primary applications without compromising on performance."
