— Product Overview
Engineering That Moves Rail Forward
The DISA-RAIL 1700 improves efficiency in railway maintenance through its flexible transport, precise operation, and versatile material handling — ultimately minimizing track-bound maintenance time and providing more room for railway traffic.
01
Flexible Transport
The DISA-RAIL 1700 is engineered for maximum mobility across operational environments. Rail-ready chassis compatibility means rapid on/off-track transitions, reducing staging time and keeping maintenance windows tight.
02
Streamlined Operation
Full radio remote control enables single-operator efficiency — all critical functions from engine start to hydraulic side-tipping are managed from a single transmitter.
03
Continuous Material Handling
Pneumatic automatic filter cleaning keeps the system running without interruption. Trapped dust drops automatically, maintaining consistent suction power throughout the operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which functions are controlled via the radio transmitter?
Engine start/stop, vacuum toggle, adjusting speeds, hydraulic side tipping, hatches, and vibrator — all critical operational functions are managed from a single remote transmitter for maximum operator flexibility and safety.
How are the filters cleaned?
The DISA-RAIL 1700 features a fully automatic pneumatic filter cleaning system that operates while the unit is running. Trapped dust is automatically discharged to prevent clogs, maintaining consistent suction performance without stopping work.
What are the benefits of the side-tipping feature?
The hydraulic side-tipping function enables efficient, safe disposal of soil, clay, water, and macadam directly from the excavator cab. This eliminates manual material handling and significantly speeds up the discharge process in confined track environments.
Can the unit be customised with different hose sizes?
Yes. The DISA-RAIL 1700 supports a full range of configuration options including smaller manifolds, extended hose lengths, and purpose-built application-specific attachments — ensuring the right setup for every maintenance task.
