Your Guide to Engineering Environment Vacuum Cleaners


In an engineering or mechanical facility and anywhere where there is an output of mixed wet and dry materials that need to be cleaned up and disposed of by controlled means, a special piece of kit is required. That piece of kit is known as an engineering separator vacuum cleaner.

Numatic produces a range of premium engineering separator vacuum cleaners with top level features offering exceptional performance and reliability in situations where swarf and coolant fluids need to be collected separately.

All models have a dry capacity for swarf of 30 litres, and a wet capacity of 70 litres. They all have large wheels for ease of mobility and chassis constructed from Structofoam, a unique, incredibly tough yet lightweight material that is resistant to dents, scratches and cleaning chemicals.

Let’s take a closer look at the individual machines.

The Numatic SSIVD1800DH is powered by double high performance by-pass Twinflo motors and fitted with a stainless steel mesh basket which sits in the 30 litre drum. The basket captures all particles larger than 1mm, whilst the liquids pass through into the separate 70 litre bottom tank. The liquids are easily discharged via the fitted dump hose. There’s a 38mm Multiflo wet kit included, and the machine can accommodate hoses from 32 to 76mm.



The Numatic SSIVD1800AP is again powered by two high performance by-pass Twinflo motors. Features are mainly the same as the 1800DH, apart from the outlet for the liquids which works via a fitted automatic pump system with a 10 metre dump hose, making the process automated and far more quicker and straightforward. Again there’s a Multiflo wet kit and hose sizes from 32 to 76mm can be accommodated.



Numatic’s SSIVD1800PH matches its sibling models as described above, but differs again in its liquid discharge system which this time works via a fitted, manually switched, high output pump system.



So when it comes to choosing your engineering separator vacuum cleaner, really your main differentiator is going to be the method by which you prefer to dump the waste. The 1800AP model commands the highest investment due to its automated pump system. The convenience makes it one of the most popular machines for this purpose.
