Heavy-duty vacuum cleaning

By Wayne Labs, Senior Contributing Technical Editor

Nilfisk’s CFM T Plus series 3-phase vacuums are used for continuous applications. T Plus vacuums have a heavy-duty steel frame, polypropylene lid and 26-gallon stainless steel collection container. The machines come standard with a high-efficiency main filter and upstream HEPA filter that retain 99.995 percent of particles, down to and including 0.18 microns in size, preventing cross-contamination of product. A phase indicator prevents the vacuum from starting if the electrical input signal is out of phase.
