Vacuuming of Aluminum Dust and other Metal Powders
The range of vacuums on this page are safe for residual vacuuming of conductive metal powders as long as best practice guidelines are followed. These include emptying after each use and basic maintenance.
Each application also requires careful consideration as each metal powder reacts differently. Some can have a thermite reaction also. A detailed conversation about the application is always necessary before we send out a quote. Give us a call at (800) 635-0298 or fill out the web form and we will be in touch!
Chapter 22 of NFPA 660 incorporates NFPA 484 to specifically address safety protocols for handling metal dusts, such as aluminum and magnesium, thereby streamlining and improving guidelines for industries involved in metal processing. This section details specific preventive measures for handling metal dust, including implementing effective dust collection systems, using inert gases to reduce combustion risks, and emphasizing the importance of regular housekeeping.

MINIAIR Z2-22
Intrinsically Safe Air Vacuum
MINIAIR Z2-22 Intrinsically Safe Vacuum
The MINI AIR Z2-Z22 is an intrinsically safe compressed air vacuum cleaner that offers exceptional power and versatility for a wide range of industrial applications. It features two parallel working ejectors that deliver maximum performance. Each ejector is adjustable, allowing for customized airflow or vacuum strength depending on the specific task at hand. Inside the vacuum cleaner, you’ll find a large surface filter made of antistatic polyester, certified as M class with a filtration efficiency of 1 micron. This filter ensures the safe collection of electrostatically charged dust. Additionally, an optional H14 filter is available for capturing the finest particles. The vacuum cleaner comes equipped with an effective manual filter cleaning system. By simply using the lever located outside the filtering chamber, the operator can shake the filter, causing the dust to be deposited directly into the collection container. For convenient disposal, a spacious 11 gal release container with wheels is provided, making it easy to empty the vacuumed material.

WD AIR Industrial Vacuum
WD AIR is an industrial vacuum cleaner powered by compressed air from the Depureco line to vacuum liquids, even if dirty with debris and light sludge. Equipped with two ejectors which, working in parallel, guarantee maximum performance. Each ejector is adjustable to provide more airflow or more depression depending on the application. Depureco's WD AIR industrial vacuum is equipped with two bag filters, one in polyester or one in polypropylene to be used, depending on the application, to separate the solid material vacuumed from the liquid. The capacity of the container of this unit is 130 Lt, allowing you to easily vacuum large quantities of material and be able to discharge it just as simple thanks to the drain located at the bottom of the container. A transparent tube is mounted on the front in order to check the level of the liquid inside the industrial vacuum. A float can be arranged in the container to vacuum in total safety.
