Explosion Proof Vacuums
A. Air Diffuser / Silencer
Diffuser silences discharged air and reduces air velocity while operating to avoid stirring up laden dust. Diffuser doesn’t disrupt work environment by allowing only low velocity air to be returned.
B. Vacuum Producer
Multi-stage centrifugal turbine produces more suction using less horsepower than any other in its class. Single phase explosion proof TEFC Baldor® motor is maintenance free, rated for continuous duty and is completely serviceable at one of many locations nationwide.
C. Durable Housing
Constructed with 900 tons of pressure, compression cast composite housing will not dent, break or rust. Carbon impregnated housing is chemically neutral and static dissipating (<10-6 Ohms) to eliminate static discharge. Housing is modular to accommodate filter upgrades and is backed by our lifetime warranty.
D. Absolute Filtration
40 square foot HEPA filters are individually D.O.P. tested and certified to be 99.997% efficient at .3 micron. Our HEPA filters are made in accordance with UL standards. The use of a HEPA filter is required to collect and contain any lead byproduct or remaining contaminants that may be present at a firing range.
E. Superior Filtration
State-of-the-art, Micro-Clean filter provides 13 or 28 square feet of filtration 99.9% efficient at .5 micron. Permanent oversized filter is low loading to prevent air flow constriction and features a reinforced steel frame and self-cleaning filter system. Filter is inter-woven with steel fibers, to insure it is grounded.
F. Sturdy Base
Heavy duty 3” double conductive casters and base are fully grounded and provide easy portability. Aluminum inlet features a bronze deflector to drop material out of the air stream. Vacuum has low center of gravity and base is counterbalanced to prevent tipping. All components have electrical continuity to eliminate static loading.
G. Easy to Empty Dustpan
Foot lever actuated dustpan drops down for easy emptying without heavy lifting of lid or filter assembly. Our filtration system has no messy pre-filters, consumables or bags to change. Dustless emptying leaves filter untouched to prevent recontamination of area.
H. Grounding Reel & Airline Connection 
The FRV Air powered series comes standard with a stainless steel machined airline intake and venturi system. With no moving parts this powerful vacuum producer carries our Lifetime Warranty. The retractable stainless steel grounding reel provides guaranteed grounding of the vacuum up to 25' away.
