1 Micron Cartridge Filter - Traps smaller particles that may come from the clean water tank and
pass through the charge pump.
10 Micron Bag Filter – Traps larger particles that may come from the clean water tank and pass
through the charge pump.
100 Micron Debris Bag – Installed in debris tank on hooks to collect debris and lter water.
Ball Valve – ON/OFF valves used to control water ow and draining tanks.
Basic Training Course – 5 days of on-site training to operate and maintain the stripe hog unit.
Bilge Box – box beneath the ultra-high pressure manifold that contains the sump to collect lubrica-
tion and cooling water from the UHP pump.
Bilge Pump – Pumps or removes the water from the bilge box to the debris tank.
Blast Head – The shroud and spray bar that deliver high pressure water to the pavement.
Blower – Pulls airow through the vacuum system.
Brush Assembly – Attaches to the bottom of the shroud providing a partial seal between the blast
head and the road surface to reduce the amount of debris and water exiting during waterblasting
operations.
Wear Brush Clamps – Clamps to the shroud to secure the brush and provide adjustment.
Burst Rating – The PSI at which a component will rupture.
Manual Bypass Valve – Located on the ultra-high pressure pump and used to manually adjust
pressure.
Cam Lock Connector – Installed at the end of each vacuum hose tting to secure the hose.
Castor Plate – Supports the hog head and prevents the spray bar from touching the ground.
Cavitation – Occurs when liquid is subjected to rapid changes of pressure that cause the formation
of cavities in the ow of water that can damage equipment.
Charge Pressure – Pressurized water supply to the UHP pump.
Charge Pressure Gauge – Digital gauge that displays the charge pressure in PSI.
Charge Pump – Centrifugal pump that supplies water to the ultra-high pressure pump.
Chassis – Steel frame that holds the truck body and motor.
Circuit Breaker - A device for interrupting an electric circuit to prevent excessive current, as that
caused by a short circuit, from damaging components in the circuit or from causing a re.
Clean Water Level Sensor – Sensor that reads the level of water in the clean water tank and indi-
cates the information on the PLC.
Clean Water Tank – Modular tanks located on the rear of the chassis used to store the clean water
supply for the UHP system.
Cuto Ball Valve – Located inside the debris tank as a safety feature to stop the ow of vacuum if
the tank becomes full.
