In the bag with The Preparation Group
For safe collection of dust during tasks like hand grinding and chasing, and when the tool is fitted with an appropriate dust cowl or guard and connected via hose, The Preparation Group offers the 202DSLP vacuum. Incorporating a self-cleaning filter system, it is designed to provide consistently high suction levels and has a Longopac bagging system whereby, instead of a bin, dust and solid material are collected into a continuous feeding bag, sealed by the operator for disposal. The machine
is fitted with an
M-class filter as standard, and H-class versions are available for containment of very fine dust particles.
