General Specifications

The Single and Dual External Filter Electric Jumbo Vacuums are heavy duty wet/dry industrial vacuums. They pick up wet and dry waste simultaneously without the need to change any filters. Both units are designed to fit onto a 55-gallon rolled tip steel drum (Tornado part number 95944) for volume pick-up with maximum efficiency. Heavier waste settles in the drum, while lighter particles are trapped in the large external filters. The 2.25 h.p. vacuum motors create tremendous CFM for pick-up power. Both units handle a wide variety of waste with ease, ranging from fine powders to medium-grade viscosity products. Accommodates 1.5" to 3" hose and attachments, depending on the model.
