The selectable auxiliary hydraulic control option provides one-way and two-way attachment flow in the monitor panel, with adjustable flow control. 847-437-5800; www.komatsuamerica.com.


Vac-Con Titan Class combination machine
The Titan Class truck-mounted, dual-engine combination machine from Vac-Con features enhanced twin cyclonic separators, one located on each side of the truck, for optimal efficiency and filtration. The Aeroboost three-stage fan balances airflow, resulting in less turbulence and more power. The water system features 1 1/4-inch plumbing and ball valves. Upgraded hydrostatic and auxiliary drive systems that operate the vacuum and water functions lower noise emissions and reduce overall fuel consumption without sacrificing power. 904-284-4200; www.vac-con.com.


KINSHOFER NOX-Tiltrotator Series tiltrotators 
NOX-Tiltrotator Series tiltrotators from KINSHOFER USA offer 360-degree continuous rotation and tilting angles of up to 2 by 55 degrees. Units feature an elliptical piston rather than a cylinder for a streamlined design and high-power performance in a variety of tight areas and applications, such as road construction, general construction, and city snow removal. The design provides a narrower tool that can move more freely in tight spaces without hang-ups, enhancing efficiency. Minimal service requirements limit downtime. An optional electric swivel is available with integrated sensors. 800-268-9525; www.kinshofer.com.

It is equipped with an X-frame undercarriage built with forged steel top rollers and rugged boom arms for sustainable uptime. Wide-opening compartment doors allow unobstructed ground-level access to maintenance points, including pump pressure taps, filters, and the cooling package. Auto Idle and Auto Engine Shutdown features, as well as integrated work modes, allow for precise power and controllability. 828-650-2000; www.volvo.com.


Franklin Electric FPS PowerSewer System 
The FPS PowerSewer System from Franklin Electric is a low-pressure system available in 60-, 72-, 84- and 96-inch basin sizes and pumps wastewater to a collection or treatment area as an alternative to gravity sewer systems and septic tanks. The basin’s internal C-channel assembly releases from the top of the unit, designed to simplify accessibility and maintenance. The float tree is spring-loaded and easily removable, with a lift handle to simplify pump removal. The system features an isolated pump support that can accommodate heavier pumps for expanded applications. Inclusion of the FPS high-head grinder allows the system to produce a maximum shut-off head of 200 feet, with a maximum flow of 35 gpm. 260-824-2900; www.franklinwater.com.
