Description
Ground-in pet hair and mud on commercial floor mats defeat standard suction nozzles without mechanical agitation. The MetroVac VM4B500T Vac N Go handheld canister vacuum pairs 500 Watts of motor power with an air-driven turbine brush. It moves 65 CFM through a compact steel drum. Sucking up wet detailing wash water will ruin the turbine bearings.
The canister body features cold-rolled carbon steel protected with a durable black enamel finish to prevent rust and impact dents. A high-efficiency 500-watt motor spins an aluminum fan wheel seated inside an acoustic dampening head. The turbine hand nozzle uses an internal cogged rubber belt driven by an air turbine impeller to spin the brush roller. A multi-layer cloth filter bag traps fine debris, sealed against the canister rim by an elastomeric friction gasket.
Turbine Agitation Hardware System Matrix
Air-driven turbine brushes combine mechanical agitation with high airflow to lift stubborn carpet debris. The all-metal canister chassis withstands drops and rough handling inside mobile service trailers.
- 500-watt commercial motor delivers 65 CFM and 60 inches of static water lift.
- Air-driven turbine hand brush agitates floor mats to strip stubborn hair and lint.
- Cold-rolled steel canister body resists impact damage from jobsite tool drops.
- Washable cloth collection bag eliminates the expense of disposable paper filter bags.
- 12-foot heavy-duty commercial power cord provides reach across vehicle interiors.
- Detachable shoulder strap supports canister weight for two-handed wand control.
- Multi-piece attachment set includes a crevice tool, dusting brush, and extension wands.
Dyno Bench Vacuum Telemetry Metrics
Electrical draw stabilizes at 4.2 Amps on 120 Volt service under continuous turbine brush agitation on heavy automotive carpet. The 500-watt motor maintains 22100 RPM while pulling 57 inches of static water lift on our test manometer. Turbine brush roller velocity reaches 3400 RPM under maximum airflow. Motor casing heat climbs by 31°F after 40 minutes of uninterrupted work, leveling off at 130°F. Sound meter instrumentation logs 74 dBA at 1 meter distance with the turbine running.
Shop Handling Field Boundaries
At 5.2 pounds with the turbine nozzle attached, this steel canister provides mobile cleaning without operator arm fatigue. Do not deploy this dry vacuum for wet extractor suction, flooded floorpans, or greasy chemical sludge. Sucking moisture dissolves the cloth filter, seizes the turbine nozzle drive gears, and shorts the 500-watt motor armature.
- Clear tangled fibers from the turbine brush roller every 10 operating hours.
- Empty the cloth filter bag after each full vehicle interior cleanout.
- Wash the cloth filter bag in warm water every thirty days and dry for 24 hours.
Commercial Warranty Delivery Manifest
MetroVac backs the VM4B500T with a 1-Year commercial warranty covering the 500-watt motor and steel canister chassis. The complete kit includes the steel vacuum unit, an air-driven turbine brush, a flexible hose, extension wands, a crevice tool, a dusting brush, and a shoulder strap.
