Industrial vacuums guide

What is the best industrial vacuum cleaner

The industrial vacuum cleaner is a machine used for the general cleaning in industrial environment, as well as many other more specific applications, not necessarily related to simple cleaning.

Industrial vacuums can be of many different types. When the situation so requires, they may be modified or purpose-built for the specific application in which they are to be used. The most common categories of vacuum cleaners are:

Let's see what is the best industrial vacuum cleaner according to your needs.

Commercial vacuum cleaners
PHARMA 3533 XXX - VACUUM CLEANER FOR GENERAL CLEANING IN THE CHEMICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL SECTOR

What is the best commercial vacuum cleaner

These vacuum cleaners, are typically made of medium-quality plastic materials or low-thickness steel. They can be found in the large retail chains and are suitable for very occasional use or hobbies. Surely, they are not recommended for any professional or industrial application, since, given their very low filtering capacity, filters get clogged almost immediately, even by not particularly fine dust, so breaking irreparably.

Wet & dry vacuum cleaners

Wet & dry vacuum cleaners

The wet & dry vacuum cleaners are suitable for simultaneous suction of powders, solids and liquids. Depending on the heaviness of the application they can be made of plastic or steel. Delfin builds a line of vacuum cleaners for liquids and powders available both in painted or stainless steel, AISI 304 or 316 (especially required in the food, chemical or pharmaceutical industry).

Three-phase industrial vacuum cleaners

Three-phase industrial vacuum cleaners

Solid, capable and powerful, the three-phase industrial vacuum cleaner is equipped with turbines ranging from 2.2 to 5.5 kw, is characterized by large filter surface and containers between 50 and 100 lt. This vacuum cleaner, which in Delfin's range is represented by 4 models of the DG EXP line, can also be used as a suction unit in small centralized systems, in combination or not with filtering preseparators or hoppers.
The real strength of this type of industrial vacuum cleaner is its reliability. In fact Delfin equips its industrial vacs only with Italian, German or American side channel blowers, which ensure outstanding performance, even in continuous and very heavy applications. The side channel blowers used, moreover, are suitable to work continuously and can work without problems even 24 hours 24 (in these cases it is recommended to adopt a safety valve that protects the turbine from overheating, allowing it to virtually work to infinity) .

High power three-phase industrial vacuum cleaners

Heavy duty three-phase industrial vacuum cleaners

If you are wondering which is the best industrial vacuum cleaner for heavy duty, you have to know that the high performance industrial vacuum cleaners free themselves from the simple concept of "vacuum cleaner" in order to become machines for material handling and pneumatic conveying. With their enormous power (turbines up to 25 kW), in fact, they can carry powders and solids with many features for tens or hundreds of meters, and then discharge them via hoppers or separators. For this very reason Delfin's Heavy duty three-phase industrial vacuum cleaners, which can be found in the DG HD line, are very often used as a central vacuum unit in centralized vacuum systems. Given the great power, these are almost always combined with pre separation systems and hoppers which are, in turn, designed and built based on the needs of the end user. Choose this kind of powerful vacuum cleaner.

High vacuum units

High vacuum units

High vacuum units are crucial in order to collect heavy dust or granular solids dispersed during the manufacturing process, typically in cement plants, steel mills, mining and other heavy industries. The use of these suction units increases the efficiency of the production cycle, allows the saving of considerable resources in terms of both manual labor and iproduction downtime, while also increasing the hygiene in the work environment. Furthermore, the collection of these materials generates immediate savings as these can be directly replaced in the production process. The industrial high vacuum units are in fact designed for the recovery of large quantities of heavy materials, also of large size. The incredible effectiveness of these tools allows a rapid return on investment derived from significant savings in terms of manpower and time. Delfin's high vacuum are built with a sturdy steel structure, which stores within a vacuum pump and a mechanical system, extremely simple and, at the same time, effective. This combination guarantees the absolute reliability of these incredible industrial vacuum systems.

Industrial vacuum cleaner for oil and shavings

Industrial Vacuums for oil, metal chips and swarf

The industrial vacuum cleaners for the recovery of oil from metal chips and cutting machines are widely-used within the mechanical, automotive and plastics industries. These machines are able to quickly retrieve large amounts of oil mixed with metal shavings directly from the tanks of CNCs or plastic cutting machines. Once recovered, the oil is filtered through a sieve grid, which filters the chips down to approximately 1.5 mm. After this first filtering, the oil passes through a polypropylene filter with a 300 micron efficiency and finally deposits in a tank of variable capacity, from 100 up to 700 lt. Once deposited, the oil can be immediately re introduced inside the machines and the production cycle through a powerful independent pump that empties the most capable tank in a matter of seconds. Delfin's Industrial Vacuums for oil, metal chips and swarf of the Tecnoil range therefore gives one the possibility to reuse several times cutting oil and coolant, thus instantly saving and reducing the cleaning time of collection tanks.

Industrial air powered vacuum cleaners

Delfin's compressed air operated vacuums generate suction through one or more Venturi ejectors. These ejectors have no moving electromechanical components and are, therefore, extremely reliable and durable. Delfin recommends this type of vacuum cleaners especially for shipyards and applications on board of ships or oil platforms, where air supply is preferred to electricity. Air operated vacuums guarantee excellent performances and the ability to work non-stop, even 24/7.

Vacuum cleaner for continuous recovery of waste and scraps

Vacuums for continuous recovery of waste and scrap

The vacuum units for continuous recovery of scraps differ from most industrial vacuums for their cylindrical shape. These machines are in fact built in order to have a large internal collection volume, as they are mainly used for the continuous recovery of scraps and production waste on packaging lines or textile machinery. In fact, on these machines, scraps are often strips of material, long and light, but very voluminous. This suction unit is made of a side channel blower placed on the bottom of the cylinder, a grid of protection above, while the remaining part of the cylinder is covered by a filtering bag, made of filtering material.This bag is fixed thanks to the plug located in the apical part. The bag, when filled with waste and scraps, can be easily removed, emptied and replaced. These vacuum cleaners, therefore, guarantee the operation of the machines they are applied on, avoiding jams (due to scraps) and minimizing downtime for immediate savings.
