Vacuums hazards
31 January 2018
When selecting a vacuum, it is important to look for robust, durable, steel models that feature high filtration standards and high airflow. To safely contain hazardous airborne particles, The Preparation Group offers three powerful vacuum models and a Pre-separator that feature Longopac Safe Bagging Systems, eliminating the need to empty a 'bin' as found on conventional dust extraction units.
Instead, debris is collected into a continuous feeding bag which is then twisted and sealed by the operator into manageable bags for disposal.
The Longopac Pre-separator connects to another industrial vacuum to yield even greater suction and dust containment properties. This unit is particularly popular with specialist asbestos contractors to avoid handling of material during the removal processes.
With a Pre-separator, the system can be used for long range projects, i.e. at high level multi-storey buildings, with the preparation equipment and Pre-separator on the working floor and the industrial vacuum at ground level, up to 150 metres away.
