Description
Plastic vacuum tanks absorb foul odors and discolor when crews recover dirty flood water and chemical stripping solutions. The Lavex 21 Gallon Stainless Steel Commercial Wet / Dry Vacuum with Toolkit recovers high liquid volumes inside a hygienic metal drum. It holds 21 Gallons of waste under 1400 Watt power. Full liquid weight requires two workers to lift.
Heavy-gauge 304 stainless steel forms the recovery drum to eliminate chemical rust and stand up to rough jobsite impacts. An industrial 1400 Watt bypass vacuum motor utilizes independent cooling air paths to isolate electrical armatures from wet tank vapors. The structural transport cart utilizes tubular steel with a tip-and-pour pivot frame and large non-marking rear wheels.
High Volume Stainless Recovery Platform
A large 21-gallon capacity minimizes downtime spent dumping wastewater during expansive flood restoration projects. The tip-and-pour frame simplifies dumping heavy dry construction rubble into disposal bins.
- 21 Gallon 304 stainless steel canister resists chemical pitting from caustic floor stripping agents.
- 1400 Watt bypass vacuum motor generates deep waterlift suction to pull heavy slurry through hoses.
- Tip-and-pour cart frame provides mechanical leverage when dumping heavy loads of dry demolition waste.
- Flexible rear drain hose allows clean wastewater drainage straight into standard janitorial floor sinks.
- Industrial cloth filter traps fine drywall and concrete dust during dry warehouse maintenance.
- Nine-piece commercial toolkit includes a 10-foot hose, chrome extension wands, squeegee, and nozzles.
- Large rear transport wheels roll over extension cords, floor drains, and rough concrete slabs with low drag.
Vacuum Motor Airflow Bench Telemetry
Operating in continuous wet recovery mode draws 11.6 Amps from a standard 120 Volt outlet under continuous load. Vacuum motor casing temperature stabilizes at 136°F after 45 minutes of non-stop water extraction. Suction performance holds steady at 88 inches of waterlift at 106 CFM airflow. Operating acoustic sound registers 75 dBA at five feet.
Industrial Facility Maintenance Field Rules
Commercial building contractors, warehouse operations staff, and disaster restoration teams manage liquid messes fast with this stainless vacuum. Do not vacuum flammable liquids, solvents, or fuel spills because electric motor sparks will cause combustion. Never run wet recovery mode without verifying that the mechanical float shutoff moves free.
- Flush the stainless steel drum and drain hose with clean water after each chemical recovery run.
- Inspect the drum lid rubber seal gasket every 30 days and replace if air leaks reduce suction.
- Blow fine plaster dust out of the cloth filter bag with compressed air after dry cleanup tasks.
