Tiger-Vac, as the manufacturer, GUARANTEES, that these units of category 1 & 2, can be used to safely recover combustible /conductive dusts and/or flammable liquids.

The ATEX marking certifies only, by it's Ingress of Protection (IP),  the capacity of the vacuum cleaner to be in the presence of combustible /conductive dusts and/or flammable liquids but does not certify the capacity of the vacuum cleaner to recover them.

All stainless steel AISI 304 construction (except cart).  Less than 10 Ohms of resistivity.  This unit is equipped with a true HEPA (H14) Filter located downstream of the motor.  This unit has been designed for the recovery of flammable and toxic powders such as unspent gunpowder and lead contaminants.  This unit is ideal for shooting ranges, army ammunition depots, manufacturers of fireams and pyrotechnic industries.  This unit includes poly liners for the safe and easy disposal of recovered materials.  This dry only unit contains a Manual Filter Shaker (MFS) system.  All of our HEPA vacuum cleaners are DOP Leak Tested before leaving our facility.

HEPA - High Efficiency Particulate Air Filter

A HEPA filter is a type of air filter, which means it filters the air coming in or out of the vacuum cleaner system. It can remove at least 99.995% of dust, pollen, mould, bacteria and any other airborn particles with a size of 0.3 microns or larger.

Tested: IEST RP-CC001.3. H14 by MPPS method as per EN 1822.

MFS - Manual Filter Shaker System

MFS_top
(illustration shows a top-mounted shaker)

The Manual Fitler Shaker system allows the operator to clean the main filter without having to open the vacuum cleaner.  This shaker System reduces maintenance down time.

The Manual Filter Shaker System consists of a spring action mechanism operating directly onto the filter cage located inside of the filter chamber. The system is operated by pressing on the ergonomic handle located on the side or top of the filter chamber.

The Manual Filter Shaker dislodges the accumulated caked-on dust from the filter thus improving the filter’s performance.

The filter, along with the filter cage, can be easily removed from the filter chamber and washed with lukewarm water and mild detergents.

10 Ohms - Explosion Proof Requirement

In order for Tiger-Vac to legally certify an Explosion Proof/Dust Ignition Proof vacuum cleaner system the unit must be static dissipative (SD*) and conductive and have a resistivity measuring less than 10 Ohms from the grounded air supply hose to any point on the vacuum cleaner system.  This makes the unit eligible to be Explosion Proof/Dust Ignition Proof and be part of Tiger-Vac's quality control management system ISO 9001:2000.

When using a pneumatic Explosion Proof Vacuum Cleaner System the customer must make sure that the source of air supply (compressor) is grounded.

DT - Detachable Recovery Tank

detachable-tankMany of our vacuum cleaners come equipped with a detachable tank for the easy disposal of recovered materials. Our detachable tanks range in size from 20 to 160 liters (5.28 gal to 42.25 gal) and are available in stainless steel or powder coated, with or without wheels for maneuverability.

MRP - Manual Reverse Purge System

MRPThe Manual Reverse Purge (MRP) System allows the operator to not have to open the vacuum cleaner in order to clean the Cartridge.  By opening the Reverse Purge Atmospheric Pressure Release Valve the Cartridge is automatically purged of dusts.  This Purging System reduces maintenance down time.

The Manual Reverse Purge (MRP) works by :

1 - Closing the slider on the opening to block the suction intake orifice for approximately 5 seconds while the vacuum is running.

2 - Then quickly open Purge Valve. Air is now flowing via the valve through to the filter.

Keep Purge Valve open for 1-2 seconds then close (repeat above steps 2 or 3 times).

Reverse Purge System will cause dust to fall off of the filter.
