From lube carts to Class 8 fuel and lube trucks, the Sage Oil Vac lineup offers mobile maintenance solutions for nearly every operation. But there’s always room for something new — especially when it helps customers get more done.
Meet the Sage Oil Vac LV230 and LV430 service lube vans. Combining benefits from models across the Sage Oil Vac lineup, these mobile service vans are tailored for maintenance work on tight jobsites and in urban environments.
Not familiar with this setup? We’re outlining four reasons service lube vans could be the right fit for your work.
1. They’re compact.
Think of service lube vans as a Goldilocks solution for certain maintenance crews. Not too big. Not too small. They’re great for navigating tighter jobsites, parking lots and fleet yards. They can also maneuver low-clearance bridges or tunnels, giving them an advantage in town over larger lube trucks. And they do it all with fluid capacities made for mobile maintenance for light-duty and construction equipment. Sage Oil Vac service lube vans can hold up to 90 gallons (340.68 L) of fresh oil, 60 gallons (227.13 L) of used oil and 30 gallons (113.56 L) of new coolant.
They’re also compact enough to avoid commercial driver’s license (CDL) requirements. CDL-certified drivers have been in demand for years, and that’s not expected to change. With non-CDL options like Sage Oil Vac service lube vans, companies don’t have to compete for commercial drivers. That means a wider potential labor pool.
2. They’re enclosed.
Covered storage is a definite plus for crews who work year-round. The enclosed setup helps keep oil viscosity low so it can flow even on colder days. It also offers valuable storage space on the job, especially when paired with smart organization options that keep everything in place. Sage Oil Vac service lube vans are equipped with Ranger Design™ shelving to maximize storage space and help operators keep track of parts and tools.
3. They’re convenient.
The best service vans are designed to make maintenance work simpler. For Sage Oil Vac service lube vans, that means having everything they need for fluid exchange accessible from the side door. Each tank has a separate control panel and continuous LED fluid level monitors, while a bulk fill station offers fast oil fills.
4. They’re economical.
Lube vans are a great fit for crews that don’t need huge capacities of oil or other fluids for their maintenance work. And because this solution is smaller than lube trucks, it is a more economical investment for companies looking to take light-duty vehicle and construction equipment maintenance on the road. The smaller size also means better fuel efficiency, offering additional savings.
The Sage Oil Vac advantage
Most mobile maintenance setups transfer fluid with mechanical pumps. The more mechanical parts in your equipment, the more maintenance and repair you can expect to perform.
Sage Oil Vac systems are engineered with exclusive pump-free technology, using compressed air to push oil into and out of tanks. This design translates to faster, safer, cleaner and more reliable fluid exchanges. Here’s how:
- Faster: A Sage Oil Vac system speeds up regular maintenance tasks, like:
- Vacuum-filling fresh oil tanks at up to 15 gallons (56.78 L) per minute.
- Dispensing products at up to 5 gallons (18.93 L) per minute.
- Vacuuming hot motor oil at up to 6 to 8 gallons (22.71 to 30.28 L) per minute.
- Safer: Sage Oil Vac systems have sealed tanks, protecting operators from fumes. The setup also protects the environment from spills, which is increasingly important as jobsite requirements become stricter.
- Cleaner: Sealed tanks and pump-free exchanges introduce fewer contaminants into fresh fluids — and help prevent spills.
- More reliable: Rounded tank corners eliminate cracking. Fewer moving parts. Bottom-draining to prevent sludge. Sage Oil Vac systems are designed for minimal maintenance issues and a lower overall cost of ownership.
