What Does "Tool-Connected Industrial Vacuum" Mean?
A FEVI industrial vacuum connected to tools is a device designed to suction and collect dust, chips, and debris generated directly by the tool during its use. These systems feature powerful motors and advanced filtration systems, allowing them to handle large volumes of material and maintain clean air within the workspace. FEVI tool-connected vacuums vary significantly in terms of size, capacity, and employed technologies, thus adapting to various operational needs.
The Challenge of Fine Dust
Fine dust, often invisible to the naked eye, poses one of the main challenges in industrial waste management. These particles can originate from numerous processes, including:
- Metalworking: cutting, grinding, sanding, and polishing.
- Woodworking: sawing, milling, and sanding.
- Chemical and pharmaceutical industries: handling powders and chemicals.
- Food sector: processing of flours, sugars, and other powdery products.
The presence of fine dust in the air can pose serious health risks such as respiratory problems, skin and eye irritation, and in some cases, severe occupational diseases like silicosis. Moreover, fine dust can damage machinery and equipment, reducing production efficiency and increasing maintenance costs.
Filtration Technologies in FEVI Tool-Connected Vacuums
To effectively tackle the challenge of fine dust, FEVI tool-connected vacuums are equipped with cutting-edge filtration technologies.
These include:
- HEPA Filters (High Efficiency Particulate Air): These filters can capture up to 99.995% of particles as small as 0.3 microns. They are essential for applications requiring high air cleanliness, such as in the pharmaceutical and food sectors.
- Cartridge Filters: Known for their high collection capacity and ease of maintenance. They can feature automatic cleaning systems to ensure long operational life.
- Bag Filters: Offer a good balance between filtration capacity and cost. They are often used in applications where dust volumes are high but particles are not extremely fine.
FEVI Industrial Vacuums for Fine Dust with HEPA Filtration and Automatic Filter Cleaning
To meet the needs of continuous production, FEVI turbine vacuums represent the pinnacle of reliability and filtration efficiency available. These models, equipped with side channel turbine motors, deliver excellent performance and can operate continuously without interruption, even 24 hours a day. Filtration efficiency is ensured by the patented Fevi Iclean filter cleaning system, which keeps filters clean even with large amounts of fine dust.
Thanks to Fevi Iclean technology, vacuums equipped with this system ensure consistent suction performance, autonomously cleaning filters without any intervention from the operator and without ever interrupting suction.
The three-phase suction of the Fevi line is a multi-filter vacuum. All filters work together for 2 minutes, after which there is a cyclic cleaning action by vibration. The system provides for the closure of the filter's intake to allow the fall of accumulated dust and finally vibrate it, while other installed filters continue to suck.
