Hi-Vac• A world’s leading producer of heavy-duty industrial vacuum

cleaners.• Available in 50 countries.• Since 1969, more than 5,000 machines sold around the

world.• Researched and designed its products to suit virtually all

industrial vacuum cleaning projects. Hi-Vac equipment is used in a wide variety of industries, e.g. cement works, power stations, glass and fiberglass plants, brick and refractory plants, foundries, aluminum plants, steel mills, petrochemical plants, machine shops, water treatment plants, construction sites, grain handling plants, for environmental protection and municipal applications.

Applications• Cement Plant: Throughout the plant, Hi-Vac are used to

clean up and reclaim raw materials and finished product. In the packing plant and load out areas finished cement can be cleaned up quickly and recycled back into the system reducing equipment down time and increasing profits. Along conveyors, at transfer points and bucket elevators and around screens and mills the Hi-Vac industrial vacuum cleaner cleans up spills and un-plugs jammed equipment to get the production system back up and running quickly, significantly reducing down time and maintenance costs.

• Power Plant: Hi-Vac are used for cleaning material spills in conveyor galleries and transfer points and for general cleanup of accumulated fly-ash, clinker and spilled coal during routine boiler room cleaning and boiler maintenance shutdowns. Hi-Vac industrial vacuum cleaners can quickly clean accumulated fly ash on all floors, including the top of the boiler room without generating the dust usually associated with manual sweeping.

Applications• Steel Mill: Cleanup of bulk materials and accumulated dust

in the iron, steel smelters, coke, sintering areas and the cleanup of fly ash, dust, oxidized chips, waste water and debris at the multiple floor platforms, rolling mills, traveling cranes and forging presses with a Hi-Vac will reduce equipment downtime and cleanup time and improve production efficiency.

• Foundry: More than 400 foundries around the world use Hi-Vac to clean up sand spills in pits and around conveyors. Like Sand and bentonite spills and accumulated dust in the sand plant; Shot, abrasives and metal dust in the cleaning room and metal chips and cutting fluid in the machine shop.

• Machine Shop: Steel, cast iron and aluminum chips and dust are easily and quickly cleaned up by the Hi-Vac. It is also used to reclaim steel shot and abrasives for re-use therefore reducing operating costs. At the same time equipment downtime is reduced and the work environment is improved resulting in an overall improvement in quality.

Applications• Water Treatment Plant: Filtration media, such as sand

and gravel, and debris are quickly removed from filtrating tanks and precipitating tanks with the Hi-Vac.

• Rail Terminal and Port: Hi-Vac can be used to cleanup bulk material spills and remove material from overloaded rail cars and trucks.

• Shipyard: Cleanup of welding slag, debris, and reclamation and recycling of steel shot and abrasives is quick and economical using a Hi-Vac.

• Paper, Pulp and Wood Plant: Hi-Vac are used for the cleanup of sawdust, wood chips and slurries throughout the plant.

• Grain Terminal: Cleanup of bulk grain spills in pits and bucket elevators and dust accumulations on machines, wire runs and structural steel is quick and easy with a Hi-Vac.

• Coal Mining and Processing Plant: Hi-Vac has designed special machines for the cleanup of coal in mines, processing plants and electric power plants.

Applications• Glass and Fiberglass Plant: Hi-Vac are used in glass

plants around the world for cleaning up batch materials such as sand and soda ash as well as for cutlet and fiberglass cleanup.

• Asbestos Plant: Safely cleanup and contain hazardous asbestos using specially designed Hi-Vac.

• Construction Site: Cleaning up construction debris such as sand, cement, welding slag and even concrete blocks is easy with the power of a Hi-Vac.

• Chemical Plant: Hi-Vac are used to clean up hazardous materials with 100% containment.

Hi-Vac SeriesHi-Vac Handle The Toughest Cleanup Jobs -

cleanup aggregate, powder, liquid, slurry, any material that flows through a hose; long-reach upto 2,000' (610m); powerful suction upto 18" (457mm) Hg; with motor from 10 to 300HP; clean deep pit, dust collector, catwalk, hole, conveyor, duct, elevator and hard-to-reach area.

Reduce Your Labor Costs and Downtime - most pay for themselves in less than 6 months; cleanup jobs in hours instead of days; no stir up dust, stalled equipment can be cleaned quickly during regular working hours to allow for immediate repairs.

Save Money With Reclaimed Materials - spills cost money, reclaiming your valuable materials saves you money; e.g. with an intercept hopper mounted over a conveyor belt, materials can be put back into the process as you vacuum. Fines and other debris are collected in the hopper beneath the powerhead.

Hi-Vac SeriesPatented 3-stage Filtration System

Centrifugal Separator draws material into circular chamber where it spins out of air stream. Partially cleaned air rises up stack to Linear Separator.

Linear Separator for removal of moisture and abrasive dust. It is drawn at high velocity through the narrow slot on top. Entering the larger chamber, it slows down, dropping dust particles to the bottom. Any remaining material is trapped in the Final Cloth Dust Collector.

Final Cloth Dust Collector, which filters out virtually all sub-micron particles. Cleaned air passes to vacuum pump and is exhausted through silencer.

Hi-Vac SeriesManifold Systems

(1) On a production line, a Hi-Vac manifold system can clean material from molds, pick up chips or spills, etc. Inlets can be adapted to production machinery such as cutting heads.

(2) An intercept hopper can be used to reclaim picked-up material.Most material drops out of the air-stream into the hopper. Dust and fines continue on and are collected at the Powerhead.

(3) Pneumatic Conveying Systems allow for unloading hopper cars and other bulk transporters without the need for a pit. Conveying capacities up to 200TPH are available, depending on the material.

(4) A manifold system is ideal for cleaning out several rail cars, trucks or barges at one time.

UltraVac SeriesStationary Vacuum Loader

An Stationary Vacuum Loader can work as part of a plant-wide central vacuum system, cleaning up at multiple locations and rapidly moving materials over long distances. Or it can be used as a pneumatic conveyor to collect and continuously transfer materials into processing systems or storage. There's an Stationary Vacuum Loader with the air flow and capacity to meet your exact needs: hopper capacity from 1-10 cubic yards, (0.76-7.6m3) power from 20-300HP; hose diameter from 2"-10"; air volume at maximum load from 400-6500CFM (11.3-178m3/min.).

UltraVac SeriesHVV 4915 Wet / Dry

• It’s 27” Hg vacuum power means less work for the operator and less maintenance. The convex sides of the filtration system components provide structural integrity while helping to prevent material build-up.

• And, it delivers the ultimate in material separation. HVV 4915 was specifically designed with less restriction, which greatly increases airflow throughout and reduces differential pressure loss.

Innovative New Design Features Enhance Material Separation

• The Cyclonic Ring Pre-filter and 10" diameter inlet hose work together to slow the inlet velocity of the material being vacuumed.

• The 16-foot long main payload compartment further enhances material separation.

• Large diameter round air ducts between the main payload compartment , dual cyclones and baghouse provide for more airflow with less restriction which reduces the differential pressure loss in the filtration system.

• Dual Secondary Cyclones are utilized to provide fine particle separation prior to the baghouse final filter.

• Our Bag-House Final Filter System utilizes 68 snap-ring filter bags providing 445 square feet of filter media.
