Schuko VacoMAT 180 XP & XPe

Vacomat 180 XP und 180 XPe

The Vacomat 180 XP(e) mobile dust extractor with an airflow of up to 2,610 m³/h is ideally suited to single- or multi-machine extraction. In a safe negative pressure process dust and chips are extracted pneumatically and conveyed, e.g. for dust extraction from long belt sanders, spindle moulders or small wide belt sanders.

In the standard version extraction is started manually with the push of a button. Automatic fan start-up upon switch-on of the connected machine tools can be installed upon request to avoid operating errors such as not activating the extraction function when there is a load or activating it when there is no load.

The dust and chips are discharged to two dust-tight plastic sack-lined chip collection tanks (2 x 240 l). A negative pressure duct holds the film sack in place in the collection tank. Inspection windows are provided for level checking.

The mobile dust extractor monitors the extraction performance via a load cell to ensure maximum operational reliability.

Filter regeneration – XP or XPe?

Filters in the Vacomat 180 XP are cleaned by a combined pneumatic and mechanical action. Dust and chips are expelled gently from the filter in a patented ‘shake-off’ process when a compressed air supply is connected. As soon as the dust extractor is switched off, the regeneration mechanism is started by hand.

In the Vacomat 180 XPe an integrated switchgear cabinet is used for electromechanical cleaning via a shaker motor. Activation occurs via querying of the woodworking machine via floating contacts. As soon as all connected machines are off the motorised filter shaker starts automatically. For the regeneration mechanism no connection to a compressed air supply and thus no compressor is necessary. This leads to a significant reduction in noise during cleaning.
