Reversible Drum Vac
A liquid vacuum cleaner with a 2-way pumping system
Why The Reversible Drum Vac?
EXAIR’s compressed air operated Reversible Drum Vac System attaches quickly to any closed head 30 or 55 gallon (45 imperial gallon/205 liter) drum. Its high powered vacuum fills the drum in less than two minutes. With the simple turn of a knob, the same stainless steel pump quickly empties the drum. Coolant sumps can be easily refilled, floor spills vacuumed, or contaminated liquids transferred to filtration tanks in minutes. The flow rate in and out of the drum can be controlled with the knob, making it ideal for dispensing liquids. The Mini Reversible Drum Vac System delivers the same two-way action specifically for small jobs. It comes complete with a 5 gallon drum and all the tools.
Electrically operated “all purpose” vacuums aren’t designed for use in industrial environments. As a result, motors wear out quickly and impellers clog. The Reversible Drum Vac does not use electricity and has no moving parts, assuring maintenance free operation. An automatic safety shutoff valve prevents spills or overfilling. (Warning: Do not use with any material with a low flash point or with flammable liquids such as fuel oil, alcohol, gasoline or kerosene.)
The following Reversible Drum Vac Styles are available:
Reversible Drum Vac System
The standard Reversible Drum Vac is good for general purpose liquid cleanup and transfer. It includes a compressed air powered stainless steel two-way pump assembly along with a shutoff valve, 10′ (3m) of 1-1/2″ (38mm) I.D. vacuum hose with a 90° quick release elbow, and an aluminum wand. All are sized to fit your closed head drum (30, 55, or 110 gallons).
Deluxe Reversible Drum Vac System
Our Deluxe Reversible Drum Vac System improves on the Reversible Drum Vac by adding features that make it easier to use for everyday tasks. It includes everything that comes with the Reversible Drum Vac and adds a drum dolly, an ABS spill recovery kit, two extension wands, crevice tools, a skimmer tool, and a tool holder. All are sized to fit your closed head drum (30, 55, or 110 gallons).
Premium Reversible Drum Vac System
The Premium Reversible Drum Vac System makes it even easier to get started by adding a 30, 55, or 110 gallon drum to the Deluxe Reversible Drum Vac System and including a lid with locking ring, and 20′ (6.1m) of air hose.
Mini Reversible Drum Vac System
The 5 Gallon Mini Reversible Drum Vac has the same features as the Reversible Drum Vac but is sized to work with a 5 gallon drum. The Mini Reversible Drum Vac System includes a 5 gallon drum with lid and locking ring, 10′ (3 m) of 1-1/2″ (38 mm) I.D. flexible vacuum hose with 90° quick release elbow, aluminum wand, ABS spill recovery kit, two extension wands, crevice tool and skimmer tool.
Examples of use:
The Reversible Drum Vac fills or empties machine sumps quickly and easily. If it is full, this is noticeable by the changing sound in the barrel.
The Spill Recovery Kit used with the Mini Reversible Drum Vac provides fast cleanup of messy spills.
