CAUTION
Possible hazardous situation that could lead to mild injury
to persons or damage to property.
Note
Indicates useful tips and important information.
– If the area to be vacuumed is locally fixed.
– If there is little space available at the working area.
– If the working areas are laid out over a large area and
several vacuuming points are therefore required.
– If the possible cleaning times must be limited due to the
production continuity
– If set-up and maintenance times are to be minimised.
– If the work environment must be kept hygienically
clean.
– If engine noises must be minimised in the working area.
– If large amounts of dust or fluid must be continuously
disposed of.
Typical target groups for stationary vacuuming systems:
– Food industry
– Processing of metal and steel
– Processing of glass and stone
– Production of paper
– Production of starch and tobacco
– Textile industry
– Automobile industry
– Construction
– Transport
– Immediately ready for operation, no set-up times.
– Space-saving, only the vacuuming accessories are at
the work station.
– Comfortable to use and safe to operate.
– Central suction unit and emptying at one point, thus,
space-saving and time-saving during maintenance.
– Long service life as parts transporting materials are
made of robust, sturdy material.
– Saving of costs thanks to the lower maintenance cost
of the entire system compared to several single sys-
tems.
– Saving of costs thanks to the acquisition costs com-
pared to single systems.
1 Description of the requirements and evaluation of the
situation of the customer.
2 Based on the known amount of material and material
characteristics to be vacuumed up, the number and
size of the vacuuming points and the resulting required
air speed is determined.
3 Planning of the routing.
4 Calculation of the pressure loss in the network with the
objective to optimise the line design
5 Matching with the vacuum cleaner types and detailed
planning of the routing.
– All Kärcher industrial vacuums.
– Wet / dry vacuum cleaner and liquid aspirator.
– Explosion-proof vacuum cleaners are only certified for
the operation with defined hose lines.
The certification comprises a test of the total resistance
in the system (vacuum cleaner without accessories)
For a stationary system this can not be performed in ad-
vance.
If a customer requires an explosion-proof stationary
system, the installed system must be certified in a sin-
gle acceptance inspection by the named authority.
– Container sizes and types as per the current main cat-
alogue.
– The pre-separator system (as per main catalogue) with
80 l container or for drums can also be used as a dis-
posal container (observe nominal diameter).
– Disposal bags in various designs as per main cata-
logue.
– All IV- and IVC vacuum cleaners have an integrated cy-
clone preseparator.
– Filter data of the main filters such as surface, material,
order number, etc. as per main catalogue.
– 4 Standard diameter:
DN 60, DN 80, DN 100 and DN 120
– Modular system with flanged pipes and tension ring
connections.
Thus, flexible replacement and extension.
– In galvanised steel or stainless steel (1.4301)
– System is suitable for dusts, chips and fluids.
– Hose suspension with limit switch for the automatic
switch-on of the vacuum cleaner.
– Kärcher remote control for controlling the suction unit at
the vacuuming point.
