Description
Toxic lead renovation projects require verified particulate capture without blowing microscopic dust back into living areas. The Nilfisk ATTIX 30-01 PC HEPA delivers certified 0.3 micron retention through a 120V motor generating 135 CFM and 92-inch static water lift. An 8 Gallon tank requires manual power switching on every pass, slowing down synchronized power tool operations.
Molded high-density polyethylene constructs the 8 Gallon canister, absorbing sharp wall strikes and chemical wash solutions without structural fracture. The certified HEPA filter cartridge compresses against a closed-cell elastomer gasket, preventing dirty air bypass into the turbine chamber. Bypass cooling tracts channel clean room air over the motor armature, keeping conductive drywall dust away from copper commutator bars. Aluminum fan impellers maintain static balance at speed, suppressing mechanical chatter against the container rim.
Certified Abatement Hardware Matrix
Remediation crews deploy this vacuum for point-of-origin toxic dust collection around drywall sanders and chipping hammers. Tough toggle latches hold the motor head secure under continuous suction drag.
- Certified HEPA filter cartridge captures 99.97% of toxic dust particles down to 0.3 microns
- 8 Gallon polyethylene canister resists structural cracking from dropped hand tools and vehicle transit
- 120V commercial motor pulls 135 CFM and 92-inch water lift for deep dust shroud evacuation
- Push-and-Clean reverse air pulse system dislodges surface dust cakes at the touch of a button
- SilentPower motor housing keeps operating noise low without choking internal intake velocity
- Heavy rubber tie-down strap secures the power cable and suction hose during hand carry
- Contractor tool pack contains aluminum extension tubes, commercial floor tools, and power adapters
Dyno Thermal Bench Telemetry
Current draw pulls 9.2 Amps on 120 Volt circuits under continuous closed-inlet load conditions. Motor casing metal temperatures climb 38°F over room ambient after 45 minutes of loaded extraction. Exhaust air venting measures 117°F during high-vacuum runs against a partially loaded HEPA cartridge. Static water lift drops 8-inch water lift across a standard 10-foot suction hose. Sound output meters track 59 dBA at 10 feet under open airflow, rising to 64 dBA under full seal.
Application Bounds Maintenance Directives
The 22-pound chassis rolls over cords without tipping, but the small canister demands multiple dump trips on full-room demo jobs. Abatement contractors handling continuous concrete floor grinding should avoid this model, because the manual filter pulse cannot keep up with heavy silica loading. Vacuuming glowing metal slag or hot furnace soot will burn through the fleece bag and scorch the HEPA membrane.
- Depress the Push-and-Clean button three times whenever air speed drops at the tool shroud
- Inspect the HEPA cartridge perimeter gasket once per week for dust trails that indicate seal breach
- Wash the pre-filter screen under running tap water and dry to a crisp finish before reuse
