Drain cleaning rig
After the fire in the tunnel in 2008, there were massive purge. Each unit has maxed to the limit, and some outside. One of the maintenance and upkeep of the rail modules "sewage inspection rig" which had begun on the proposed design and 2009, suffered the consequences and was unusable.
Sewer inspection Rig is a unique 250,000 shares of equipment capable of producing 6000psi water pressure through one of its 14,000 CC (14 l) diesel engines. The second Deutz F8L 413 series V8 engine produces 200 hp at second NASH vacuum pump, the negative pressure of 1 bar crawl in the ass garbage and manure into a storage tank capable of producing power. Worked since the 90s, when the tunnel first opened, this equipment is used regularly to keep the sewers and sidewalks clean and clear. There is nothing that can replace or exchange unit that can perform this task.

Both Deutz V8 diesel engine will have a full top-end strips and decoke according to the manufacturer's recommendations and beyond. The holes have been cut from each cylinder, piston rings replaced and the lower end oil surveyed journals. Installed prior to installing the new head gaskets and washers, and each cylinder had the bump is not installed properly aligned before a new injection pump and injectors.
Both Harber High pressure pump and Nash vacuum pump and associated transmission was repaired and renovated brushing / a major overhaul.
Each component of the machinery has been sand-blasting, blasted (to be painted) and Eurotunnel, and the project comes back to the Eurotunnel and on budget.
Especially important, it was not time for the Channel Tunnel operator Eurotunnel is reduced to an absolute minimum.
