How to Choose a Vacuum Cleaner
Step 1: Identify the material to be recovered.
Dry only, wet & dry, vapor, fumes etc.
Step 2: Determine the classification of the location.
Hazardous, explosive, cleanroom, general etc.
Step 3: Single / 3 phase electric or pneumatic operation.
Recovery for disposal, containment or re-use.
Step 4: Portable or machine attachable system.
Step 5: Additional safety features for operator protection.
To work in a hazardous locations where flammable materials are present, Tiger-Vac recommends an explosion proof vacuum system that is Legally Certified.
