This model “pressure fed“ vacuum blasting machine is available in various versions, which makes it able to choose the best suitable machine for the blasting job.

This machines are used for vacuum blasting with the lighter, medium abrasives (Al2O3, garnet, olivine sand, glass beads and plastics) and especially metallic abrasives such as steel grit/shot and cast iron grit.

• Required production capacity (m²/hour or m/hour)
• Width of blasting pattern (16 – 55 mm)
• Maximum required length of blast hose set (5 -50 m)
• Selection of abrasive
• Working situation (Factory, on-site, on-shore, offshore

Pros;
The overall air consumption is less. ( look at the availability of compressed air in the machines workspace). If there is not sufficient air for running a fully pneumatic machine, consider the use of an electric-pneumatic version.

Cons:
The e-motor of the electric fan is a moving part on the machine with a certain life time. Wear is relatively high when switched on-and off very frequently.
The machine version with an electric vacuum generator has a less powerful vacuum which brings a restriction on the maximum usable blast hose set ( 1060/1070). The vacuum power cannot be adjusted in strength, which will have a negative influence when blasting with lightweight abrasives. Too much fine abrasive carried over into the dust bag.

Pros;
No moving part on the venturi, so no wear and a endless life time. The vacuum power can be adjusted in strength, necessary when blasting with light weight abrasives. No electricity necessary for running the machine not depending on electricity and machine can be used in many application (stationary, in the field , of-shore).
Maximum usable length of blast hose set of 1060/1070 is much longer compared with EP version machines (30-45 mtr. against 10-15 mtr.)
Machine empty weight is less and the technique in the machine is much simpler (usage and maintenance).

Cons :
The compressed air consumption is much higher.

General applications:
In principle, we always start offering a fully pneumatic version machine. Due to the advantages in use. “Electric driven” machines are most commom used in stationairy positions. In factories and production processes. Places where power supply is always good available and the necessary blast hose lengths are mostly less than 10 meter.
