Anti-static vacuums

Spillrite explosion proof vacuum cleaners are safe for use in hazardous situations for control of combustible dusts and most flammable fluids. Our vacuums do not create any arcing or sparks or generate any heat through normal operation.

Explosion proof vacuum cleaners particuarly when powered by compressed air provide the highest safety rating and are intrinsically safe. As the vacuum power is created through the venturi principle and there are no moving parts, there is no friction or heat created in the process.

Spillrite Explosion-Proof Vacuum Cleaners are ATEX certified and UKCA certified safe for use in hazardous locations as part of a combustible dust control program and are suitable for most flammable and combustible waste. Spillrite vacuums are certified under ATEX directive for Europe and also UKCA EX which will be the new directive for the UK. These standards are for equipment approved for use in explosive atmospheres.

Explosion proof anti static vacuums for use in all explosion risk areas including Zones 1 and 2 (Gas) and 21 and 22 (Dust).

The Spillrite anti-static Drum Vacuums can be configured in a variety of power settings. The most powerful is 300 cfm of compressed air. The DLV units are also designed to be able to reverse pump out fluid. Through the unique design of the venturi's there is no possibility of the drum over pressurising as all excess pressure is released through the throat of the venturi. 

Explosion proof drum lid vacuums  Reverse drum lid vacuum pump out screw handle  Universal claw coupling. Air supply hose needs to be grounded.   Carbon or galvanised steel lid to create static pathway.  Metal drum lock ring to create pathway between lid and drum.  ATEX certified label  Metal suction intake fittings  Indusrial 205-210 steel drum needs to be grounded and not placed on matting or waste that will prevent grounding of the system.

When the lock band is secured, the lid and the drum become grounded to the earth and provide a complete circuit which will release any build up of static electricity. This explosion proof vacuum is widely used within the gas and oil industry
