Industrial drum vac Model 6303 Premium EasySwitch®

drywetliquids

Overview
The EasySwitch® Wet‑Dry Vac System P6301 (Premium kit) is a pneumatic, drum‑mounted vacuum designed for industrial wet and dry cleanup. It operates without electricity, uses minimal compressed air and rests on a standard 55 gallon open‑top drum. The patented EasySwitch filter hatch enables fast changeover between dry and liquid operation while an automatic float prevents drum overfill.

• Metal chips and shavings
• Shop and floor cleanup
• Drain and sump cleaning
• Sawdust and wood shavings
• Absorbent material pickup
• Mold and allergen removal

Advantages

• Fast transition liquid↔dry via single‑latch filter hatch

How It Works
The unit uses a single‑latch filter hatch: install the filter for dry pickup and remove it for liquid pickup. A float inside the drum stops suction when liquid reaches the shutoff level, preventing spills.

Safety / Warnings
Do not use with flammable or low‑flash‑point liquids (e.g., fuel oil, alcohol, mineral spirits, gasoline, kerosene). Do not use with combustible dust.
