This is because trucks, agricultural and military vehicles have very powerful engines that release a considerable amount of exhaust gases. Let's delve into this topic in the following article! ## The elements to consider when choosing an exhaust gas extractor for trucks A workshop that serves heavy vehicles such as trucks, [military vehicles or agricultural vehicles must equip itself with specific tools and equipment to intercept and aspirate with ad hoc technologies and systems the significant volumes of exhaust gas produced by these types of vehicles.](https://blog.worky-italy.com/en-us/automotive/exhaust-gas-extraction-systems-guide-to-choose?hsLang=en-us) During some particular tests, the fumes from these vehicles can reach a high volume and heat to treat which specific solutions are needed, including the use of high temperature resistant hoses. [![New call-to-action](https://hubspot-no-cache-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/26256811/a6c9843f-8db5-4c33-8ca7-81ef0610ba3d.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-eu1-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/26256811/a6c9843f-8db5-4c33-8ca7-81ef0610ba3d) In our range of high-temperature hoses we can offer versions resistant to 500°, 700°C, 1000°C . Not only that, exhausts and mufflers of heavy vehicles have different diameters and shapes than those of passenger cars, and are often located in more difficult-to-reach places. The mufflers of some vehicles may also be in a vertical position. Therefore, it is necessary to have specific, [functional and durable adapters that are easy to activate](https://blog.worky-italy.com/en-us/automotive/workshop-fume-extraction-necessary-but-which-system-is-right-for-me?hsLang=en-us)and can be easily operated by an operator on the ground. It is worth to mention that the presence of a manually closing damper on the nozzle, allows the partialization of extraction, ensuring significant energy and economic savings for the company. ![exhaust gas extractor](https://blog.worky-italy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/KIRO/Imported_Blog_Media/aspirazione-gas-di-scarico-auto-bocchette_i3803-kWwo6s-w800-l1-n1-2-Nov-04-2022-11-51-08-6601-AM.jpg?width=500&height=294&name=aspirazione-gas-di-scarico-auto-bocchette_i3803-kWwo6s-w800-l1-n1-2-Nov-04-2022-11-51-08-6601-AM.jpg) ### Why is it important to choose a gas extraction system for heavy vehicles? If your workshop deals mainly with heavy vehicles, it is important to carefully consider the type of extractor to be installed. [The significant amounts of toxic gases](https://blog.worky-italy.com/en-us/automotive/workshop-fume-extraction-necessary-but-which-system-is-right-for-me?hsLang=en-us) produced by these vehicles can pose a danger to workers as well as a risk to the efficiency of the workshop. An unhealthy environment, in fact, makes it very difficult to carry out normal work activities, as well as generating worker discontent and dissatisfaction. This could result in different problems and, therefore, lower performance for the workshop. In addition to being an obligation dictated by law, equipping the workshop with proper vehicle exhaust extraction systems is also in the interest of the employer to ensure an efficient and productive environment. ![exhaust gas extractor](https://blog.worky-italy.com/hs-fs/hubfs/WORKY/Imported_Blog_Media/principale-progettazione-officine-camion-rendering-e-3d-per-una-visione-globale_i6025-kBnhcvS-l6.webp?width=500&height=249&name=principale-progettazione-officine-camion-rendering-e-3d-per-una-visione-globale_i6025-kBnhcvS-l6.webp) #### The types of plant best suited for heavy vehicles Workshops that deal with specialty and heavy vehicles may decide to opt for mobile or fixed extractors. [Mobile systems](https://www.worky-italy.com/us/exhaust-fume-extraction/stand-alone-systems-for-extracting-exhaust-fumes), which allow tremendous ease of movement and make it possible to reach even the most complicated parts of a truck or van, include: [GROLLY-T](https://www.worky-italy.com/us/exhaust-fume-extraction/exhaust-fume-extractor-grolly/mobile-fan-with-1-5-hp-motor-grolly-t), for exhaust gas extraction during normal truck repair operations. Equipped with a 1.5 HP 400V three-phase motor and adjustable arm to bring the nozzle closer to the vehicle's exhaust pipe The product should be completed with the specific 10 m long and 150 mm diameter ejector hose. [GROLLY-V](https://www.worky-italy.com/us/exhaust-fume-extraction/exhaust-fume-extractor-grolly/mobile-fan-with-1-0-hp-motor-grolly-v), for exhaust gas extraction during normal van repair operations. The height-adjustable fan system is equipped with a 1 HP 400V three-phase motor and rubber nozzle, so as not to scratch the bumper of vehicles Also this system is then to be completed with the specific 10 m long and 150 mm diameter ejector hose. On the other hand, as far as fixed systems are concerned, we find systems such as GMR+ hose reels. --- When it comes to choosing an exhaust gas extractor for heavy-duty and special vehicles, it is essential to rely on a competent supplier who knows how to assess the real needs of the workshop and recommend the most suitable solution.
