DescriptionThe Heavy Duty Dry Vac™ System (model P6197) converts a 30, 55 or 110 gallon open-top drum into an industrial dry vacuum. Engineered to move more dry material with less wear, the unit features hardened alloy construction and a high-flow design. It requires no electricity and has no moving parts for maintenance-free operation. Drum not included. Warning: Do not use with low flash point materials, flammable liquids (fuel oil, alcohol, mineral spirits, gasoline, kerosene) or combustible dust.

How it works (summary)Compressed air (typically 80–100 PSIG / 5.5–6.9 BAR) is injected through directed nozzles into an annular plenum. Jets create a vacuum at the intake, drawing material in and accelerating it into the drum. Airborne particles are captured by the filter bag. The unit and tools are designed for rugged industrial use.
