DescriptionEXAIR's Deluxe Heavy Duty Dry Vac™ System converts a 30, 55 or 110 gallon open-top drum into a compressed-air industrial vacuum. Built with hardened alloy components and without moving parts, the system vacuums large volumes of dry material while minimising wear and maintenance. It requires no electricity and is designed for heavy industrial environments. Warning: Do not use with low flash point materials, flammable liquids, or combustible dust.
Applications- Work surfaces

Performance (Heavy Duty Dry Vac System)Drum Size | Pressure Supply | Air Consumption | Inlet | Sound Level
30, 55 & 110 gallon | 80 PSIG (5.5 BAR) | 68 SCFM (1,924 SLPM) | 3/8 NPT | 82 dBA
How It WorksCompressed air (typically 80–100 PSIG / 5.5–6.9 BAR) enters an annular plenum and is ejected through directed nozzles. These air jets create a vacuum at the intake that draws material into and through the unit, directing solids to the bottom of the drum. Airborne dust is captured by the filter bag. The simple, rugged design provides reliable operation in demanding industrial conditions.
