The SS-20000 is Maniar's highest-capacity Super Sucker, a 20,000-liter unit mounted on a 28-ton chassis — a high-flow vacuum truck built for the largest blockages, soluble grease, sand, and other material in storm and combined sewer pipe drains.

A 6,400 cum/hr rotary lobe vacuum pump — the highest suction flow Maniar offers, built for continuous, high-speed work rather than the sliding-vane pumps on our standard vacuum trucks — generates high vacuum in the tank to siphon effluent, liquids, and settled sludge through an 8" x 15m suction hose. A sludge stirring arrangement converts solid silt into a slurry the pump can draw up, and a blow-back system discharges just the water content of the tank so the load carries away the sludge without hauling unwanted water weight. An optional jetting facility, driven by its own auxiliary engine independent of the vacuum pump's drive, lets the unit jet a line and vacuum out what it dislodges in the same pass.
A jetting pump can be added to the SS-20000, driven by its own auxiliary engine so it runs independently of the vacuum pump — letting the unit jet and vacuum at the same time rather than one after the other. The pump is available across a wide range to match the job:
The jetting hose reel is boom-mounted rather than fixed, with the boom rotating 90 degrees to either side for reach and positioning around the vehicle.
When the jetting facility is fitted, it ships standard with two nozzle types:
Additional nozzle types can be supplied to match specific jetting jobs, including penetrators, root cutters, descaling nozzles, and rotating nozzles.

Jetting is available as an optional facility, from a 70 LPM pump for equipment/area washdown up to a 330 LPM pump for underground drainage pipe cleaning, driven by its own auxiliary engine for simultaneous suction and jetting.
An 8" (200mm) hose, matched to its 6,400 cum/hr vacuum pump flow — the highest suction flow Maniar offers.
Yes — a small crane is included for lifting manhole lids.
The SS-20000 carries a larger tank (20,000L vs. 15,000L) and higher suction flow (6,400 cum/hr vs. 4,150 cum/hr), with a correspondingly larger 8" suction hose vs. 6".
