THE VEHICLE
This Foton 4x2 mini vacuum sewage truck is aimed at village sanitation teams, property managers and small contractors who empty household septic tanks, sewage wells and grease pits in places a full-size tanker cannot enter. The 2,200 L tank matches the volume of small domestic and community systems, so one truck can clear several sites on a single route before discharging at a treatment point.
The light-duty Foton chassis has a 2,800 mm wheelbase, a manual gearbox, 6.50R16LT tires and a gross vehicle weight of 4,495 kg, with a curb weight of 2,925 kg and a rated payload of 1,440 kg. Tank volume and rated payload are separate figures, so the working fill level depends on how dense the collected waste is. The tank is made of Q235 carbon steel with anti-rust treatment and an anti-corrosion, waterproof coating. It comes with an anti-overflow valve, pressure gauge, liquid sight glass, working light and warning light, so the operator can watch the fill level and tank pressure during suction.
With an overall size of 5,450 × 1,980 × 2,230 mm, the truck suits old residential compounds, rural lanes, farm yards and low-clearance sites. Emission levels from Euro 2 to Euro 6 can be specified to match local registration rules. A high-pressure cleaning package with water pump and hose reel is available as an option for customers who also need to flush short drain lines.

CONFIGURATION
IN THE FIELD
The 2.2 m³ tank suits routine emptying of single-family and small shared septic tanks.
The short 5.45 m body reaches sewage wells in rural lanes and older residential compounds.
A light 4x2 chassis moves easily between small livestock pens and wastewater pits on farms.
BEFORE YOU ORDER
Yes. The one-piece anti-corrosion tank is rated at 2.2 m³ and still leaves enough effective volume after internal baffles for small septic tanks and sewage wells.
One. The vacuum unit handles suction, discharge and pressure relief, so a single operator can run the whole job.
The compact Foton light-truck chassis and tight turning radius let it work in narrow alleys, underground garages and older residential compounds.
Tank volume can be adjusted to order, and the tank can be built as a single compartment or split into sections to suit the job.
KNOW YOUR NEXT TRUCK
How suction trucks, high-pressure sewer jetters and combination units divide the work, why suction lift stops near 10 m, and how to read tank volume, vacuum pump and water pump figures before you order.
We compare the three pump types used on sewage trucks, show the water-ring models fitted across our 4 m³ to 17 m³ vacuum trucks, and explain airflow, vacuum and fill-time figures.
An exhauster in Nairobi, a septic tanker in Lagos and a vacuum truck in a catalogue are the same machine. This guide explains how it empties a pit, which tank size suits which round, what the pump figures mean and what makes one quotation higher than another.
