Industrial vacuum systems aren’t one-size-fits-all — they’re chosen by what you extract, how long you run, and where you work.

Whether it’s fine dust, heavy chips, oil mist, or metal sludge — the motor and stage configuration decides everything from power to precision.

Let’s break it down.

🔌 Single-Phase Vacuums – Light & Flexible

Ideal for mobile cleanup and compact workstations, single-phase vacuums are built for:

• Occasional or short-cycle use
• Powders, light dust, and fine debris
• Small workshops, cleanrooms, or confined spaces
• Plug-and-play on standard 230V outlets

🧠 Perfect for:

• Electronics manufacturing
• Dental & pharma labs
• Surface cleaning of machines

But: limited runtime, lower suction power, and not ideal for 24/7 or heavy loads.

⚡ Three-Phase Vacuums – Built for Battle

This is the industrial workhorse. Powered by 400V 3-phase motors, these vacs offer:

• Continuous operation — 24/7 non-stop duty
• High airflow and massive suction for dense materials
• Compatibility with multi-operator setups
• Built-in support for heavy industrial filters and cyclones

🧠 Ideal for:

• Foundries and machine shops
• Oil mist and metal swarf recovery
• Centralized vacuum networks

This is where you stop cleaning — and start controlling the process.

🔁 Multi-Stage Turbines – Precision Meets Power

Multi-stage systems use two or more impellers to increase vacuum levels dramatically — without choking airflow.

They’re the kings of:

• Ultra-fine dust, carbon, pharma powders
• High vertical lifts (think multi-floor extraction)
• HEPA-level filtration with minimal loss
• Constant suction even in narrow piping systems

🧠 Perfect for:

• Cleanroom recovery
• Additive manufacturing
• Static-free precision zones

They’re quiet, surgical, and built to pull what no single-stage ever could.

🧴 Let’s Talk Oil, Dust & Dual-Purpose Units

In real-world factories, it’s never just one type of waste.
That’s why advanced vacuums are designed around specific applications:

🔹 Dust Class Units

• Fine, combustible, toxic — we match the class: L / M / H / ATEX
• Modular filtration: cartridges, HEPA, ULPA, antistatic bags
• Optional cyclone pre-separators for high-volume debris
• Application zones: woodworking, pharma, plastics, foundry

🔹 Oil & Coolant Mist Units

• Capture aerosolized lubricants in CNC and EDM machines
• Use multi-stage filtration with coalescing filters
• Drain recovered oil for reuse or safe disposal
• Add magnetic trays for ferrous metal swarf
• Application zones: aerospace, automotive, precision machining

🔹 Dual Use (Oil + Chips / Dust + Water)

• Built-in separation chambers
• Swivel heads and reversible flow for discharge
• Heavy-duty hoses and stainless internal tanks

These aren’t “vacuums” anymore — they’re fluid-solid separation systems, custom-fit for your material flow.

🏁 Choosing the Right Powertrain = Zero Waste, Zero Downtime

Here’s the logic:

• Use single-phase for mobility, precision, and flexibility.
• Go three-phase for high-power, constant-duty extraction.
• Deploy multi-stage when fine dust and suction consistency matter.
• Select your filtration and recovery based on your waste.

That’s how you stop buying equipment — and start building solutions.
