3. VHC EXP Series

 

The VHC EXP series -- comprising the VHC110 EXP and the VHC120 EXP -- is a new line of air-operated, hazardous location vacuums that use 60% less compressed air than a typical vacuum. Both models meet the requirements for use in Class I, Group D and Class II, Groups E, F and G environments. The difference is the airflow -- the VHC120 EXP has more CFM for even greater suction power.

7. 3700-3900 Series

With oversized filters and large collection capacities, our 3700 and 3900 Series vacuums are designed for continuous and heavy-duty applications, such as vacuuming up large volumes of grain. These vacuum cleaners are maintenance-free and come with optional upstream and downstream HEPA filters for the collection of ultrafine particles. The main differences are the power and the maximum waterlift and airflow. Learn more about this family of vacuum cleaners.

10. Nomex Filters for Hot Oven Cleaning

If you operate a bakery, you know the importance of a powerful vacuum cleaner, especially when it comes to cleaning the oven. In the past, you might have used hand tools to scrape flour, crumbs, and other food particles out of the oven and then vacuumed them up. Now, there’s an easier solution. Using an industrial vacuum with a high-temperature resistant filter, you can clean your oven much faster because you don’t have to wait for it to cool down. This boosts your productivity and profitability by reducing your downtime. Several of our food processing vacuums can be fitted with a Nomex star filter, which can collect materials up to 464°F and an efficiency of 99.7% at 1.5 microns.
