Depending on the fineness or hazard of the dust, filters of dust class M or H are required.
Vacuum cleaners tested according to TRGS 519 are suitable for the extraction of asbestos dusts hazardous to cancer.
Large air volume is recommended for light fumes and vapours, as well as storage filters.
EX-protected industrial vacuum cleaners for extraction of explosive substances and dusts.
Compression vacuum cleaners compress the extracted material and thus increase the extraction volume.
If you would like to find out more about the properties of the substances and dusts to be vacuumed, such as health hazards or the ability to burn and explode, the substance databases of the IFA (Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) can help you:
