View our VPK Series Vacuum Producers

VPK Series Vacuum ProducerDelivering power and performance for a range of applications, the VPK Series vacuum producer is ideal for central vacuum systems. Each VPK Series vacuum producer is equipped with a TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) continuous duty motor and mounted on a stand to ensure stability. An automatic relief valve protects the blower from overheating if airflow is stopped due to blockage. Ruwac specifically engineers each VPK system to include a custom silencer to diffuse air and suppress sound without interfering with the performance of the vacuum. Featuring air flow rates up to 800 CFM, the VPKs are capable of handling multiple operators and long lengths of hose.

Factors to Consider

In order to properly design a central industrial vacuum system, there are many factors that must be taken into consideration:

  • Type of material
  • Quantity of material
  • Weight of material
  • Particle size
  • Length of tubing system
  • Diameter of hoses
  • Length of hoses and type of accessories
  • Characteristics of material (i.e. sticky, wet, dry, etc.)
  • Characteristics of atmosphere (i.e. Explosive, outdoors, indoors…)
  • Number of operators
  • Number of vacuum assist tools or shrouds
  • Type of point of source extraction (i.e. custom shroud, manifold or conveyor system)
  • Altitude and temperature of environment
  • Tubing system is properly designed for maximum flow efficiency
