| The Vecloader High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Vacuum is a self-contained, trailer-mounted vacuum unit used commercially to evacuate asbestos insulation. The HEPA VAC transports the insulation through a flexible suction hose up to 500 ft. Asbestos insulation and fiber are vacuumed and captured in a fully enclosed negative-pressure system and sent into diesel engine-powered vacuum cyclone separator where it is sprayed with water to promote clumping. The VecLoader HEPA Vac can pull insulation right off the wall and send it directly into appropriate disposal containers. It is an extremely high-powered vacuum system capable of suctioning 1,700 cubic feet of air per minute at a vacuum of 15 inches of mercury and is equipped with automatic shutoff safety valves. All components of the VecLoader are mounted on a readily transportable trailer. The VecLoader is designed to vacuum any material-liquid, slurry, or solid- that can be drawn through its 5-inch diameter smooth bore vacuum hose. The integrated engine/vacuum generates high noise levels, and in a typical configuration, the VecLoader is located outside the work area.
