A Mid-Priced Air-Vacuum Excavation System with Big-Time Power.

Combining Versatility and Efficiency

Whether you are upgrading from water to air, or replacing one of our earlier systems with the SYSTEM 3000’s latest advancements in air-vacuum excavation technology, you will find this mid-sized unit perfect for potholing in a variety of applications. It’s neither too big for those small, single potholing jobs, nor too small to do multiple holes in a hurry. There’s high-pressure water on board, however, 95% of the time you’ll rely on air to get the job done quickly, economically, and safely.
