Floor preparation machines such as scarifiers, grinders, shot blasters and core drills are used in various industries for surface preparation and treatment. However, during their operations, these machines generate a large amount of dust, which can be a safety hazard for workers as well as a source of environmental pollution. Dust extractors are essential tools for maintaining a safe and clean environment for workers and the surrounding area.

How to choose?

Building and construction vacuum cleaners

Dust extractors for hand tools

Hand tools, such as grinders and saws, generate a significant amount of dust during use. Fine construction dust vacuum cleaners designed for use with hand tools are portable products and can be attached directly to the tool to capture dust as it is generated. These extractors can be equipped with HEPA filters to ensure maximum filtration of even very fine dust, making them essential tools for worker safety and environmental protection.

Dust extractors for floor scarifiers

Floor scarifying machines are used to remove coatings, such as paint or adhesives, from surfaces. This process generates a large amount of dust that can be a safety hazard and a source of environmental pollution. Vacuum cleaners designed for use with floor scarifying machines have powerful suction and specialized filtration capabilities to capture and contain dust, ensuring a safe and clean environment for workers and the surrounding area.

Industrial vacuum cleaners for core drills

Core drilling is a process used to create holes in concrete or other hard surfaces. This process generates a significant amount of dust, which mixes with the water used to cool the system. Vacuums designed for coring are capable of vacuuming both liquids and dust at the same time.

How to choose the right dust extractor

The right model of dust extractor is the one that has the features best suited to the type of application to be performed or the type of machinery it will have to work with.

The most important characteristics are:

Absolute filtration

One of the main features of dust extractors is their ability to filter and retain all dust sucked in during work. Industrial vacuum cleaners with absolute HEPA filtration are able to effectively remove even the smallest particles with particle sizes down to 0.18 microns, thus ensuring higher air quality within the working environment.

Filter cleaning system

Another important aspect of industrial vacuum cleaners is the filter cleaning system. Industrial vacuum cleaners are equipped with an automatic filter cleaning system, which uses compressed air or other methods to keep the filter in good working order. Automatic cleaning systems are particularly suitable in floor and surface treatment work because they allow the user to concentrate on the work without having to stop and clean the vacuum cleaner filter, as well as maintaining the efficiency of the vacuum cleaner and extending its service life.

Management and disposal of vacuumed dust

Another important feature of industrial vacuum cleaners is the ability to properly handle and dispose of sucked dust. Some dust collection systems, such as the Longopac continuous roll, enable operator-safe handling and disposal of vacuumed dust.

Transportability

Another significant feature for dust extractors for construction sites is their transportability. It is indeed necessary to move the vacuum cleaner frequently from one work area to another, and doing so easily is an important advantage. The size must always be decided in relation to the vehicles on which it will have to be transported.

Why choose a dust extractor for floor, surface and construction dust preparation machines

Dust extractors are essential tools for maintaining a safe and clean environment when using floor and surface preparation equipment. By choosing the right vacuum cleaner for your equipment, you can ensure a safe and healthy workplace for workers and minimize the risk of environmental pollution. Whether you use hand tools, scarifiers, sanders, shot peening machines or core drills, dust extractors are a necessary investment to protect the safety and health of workers and the environment.
