Air Supply Information:
- This vacuum runs on compressed air, and if not already present at your facility, can require require an investment of a sizable air compressor to operate properly
- The air compressor used to run the vacuum must be able to deliver a minimum of our rated CFM @ 90 PSI.
- The Vacuum will work if air supply are not to specifications but the optimal performance of the vacuums will be greatly reduced.
- If you think you'll be on the lower end of the recommended CFM, we recommend going with a 48CFM unit as it will function much better than a 85CFM unit with only 50CFM of air available.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which model do I need? The 48CFM, 85CFM, or the 185CFM?
It depends on your air supply. Check our chart below for recommendations. A standard garage air compressor will not run these vacuums efficiently.
What size vacuum should I get?
Both drum sizes perform similarly. The choice depends on the available space for the vacuum in your facility.
Is this the right vacuum for my application?
We recommend consulting with a professional safety consultant. Generally, this vacuum is safe for Class I, II, III Division 1 & 2 environments.
Can I get a longer hose?
Yes, we offer two static conductive hose options: 1-1/2" x 15' and 1-1/2" x 25". For the 2" model, 2" x 15' and 2" x 25" hoses are available. Ensure to use static conductive hoses only.
What are the requirements for the air compressor?
The vacuum requires an air compressor capable of delivering a minimum of our rated CFM at 90 PSI. Performance may reduce if specifications are not met. Smaller CFM units function better with lower CFM availability.
