Pulse-cleaned vacuum cleaner works without compressed air

The FarrVac Junior vacuum cleaner from Camfil Farr Air Pollution Control (APC) uses a patented pulse-cleaning technology that operates without compressed air. Filters are cleaned every 10 seconds, preventing clogging. The unit may be used for everyday vacuuming or as an accessory to a dust collector when replacing or emptying dust drawers or drums.

The FarrVac Junior comes equipped with durable spun bond polyester filters that are said to last up to 10 times longer than conventional filters. Two primary HEPA filters provide 99.97% efficiency on dust particles to 0.3 micron, the Jonesboro, AR, US-based firm says.

The unit has a 120cfm motor and operates on 120VAC, 50/60Hz power. It is supplied with an 8-gallon tank, hose, hard floor wand kit and optional aluminium wand and floor sweep. A cyclonic housing design minimises filter exposure to debris.
