Product Overview

The Dual Force Vac System is a convenient and versatile solution for liquid material handling and spill clean up. Using powerful Transvector technology, the Dual Force Vac Drum Pump can either fill or discharge a 55 gallon drum in under two minutes. It switches easily -- with a 1/4 turn of a knob -- from fill to discharge mode. And the Dual Force Vac can handle viscous liquids and particulates. Quiet and safe, the Dual Force Vac is air-powered with no moving parts, meaning no motor burn out and no shock hazard. It quickly installs on a 55 gallon drum and comes with a 10 foot hose and nozzle. An optional aluminum wand and squeegee are available to facilitate spill pick up.

Benefits

• Fast pick up or discharge, fills or empties a drum in less than 2 minutes
• Cleans machine sumps including chips and particulates
• Handles liquids up to 1500 cPs
• Handles particulates and swarf with ease
• Single tool switches quickly from discharge to suction
• Safe, with no shock hazard
• Low maintenance, with no motor or moving parts

Features

• Ease of use with patented design
• Automatic safety shut off valve prevents overflows
• Relief valve limits internal drum pressure to 8 psig
• Installs on a 55 gallon drum in less than a minute: Drum spec UN/1A1/X1.8/300
• Resistant to most non-volatile, non-flammable liquids
• Optional wand and squeegee kit handles large floor spills
• Switches from fill to discharge mode with a ¼ turn of a knob
• Installed unit pivots 360 deg for easy hookup to compressed air line; facilitates caster-mounted drum portability
• Included with Model 2109:
• Pump assembly with integral overflow preventer and pressure relief valve

Product Overview

Workers in extreme temperatures wear Personal Air Conditioners (PACs) to minimize heat stress, cold stress and fatigue and improve comfort and productivity. The new Dual Action PAC switches quickly from cold to hot, to provide comfort in all seasons.

Vortec PACs have two components:

• a cooling/heating tube with belt that generates cold and/or hot air to provide air flow to the worker;
• a diffuse cooling vest through which the cold or hot air flows to cool the worker’s torso and neck

PACs are available in three cooling capacities, and two models that provide versatility to switch back and forth between heating and cooling. All models can achieve temperature differentials of +/- 45 – 60 deg F from the inlet compressed air temperature using vortex tube technology. The cooling only models are adjustable by the worker using an integral temperature adjust knob.

The diffuse air vest is available in three sizes and provides continuous cooled or heated air through its perforated inner lining. The durable plasticized PVC vest allows full range of motion with no airflow restrictions; and does not absorb sweat or other contaminants. The vest can be worn under other protective clothing and features a collar that can be unfolded to deliver airflow to the neck and face. A vest extension is also available to accommodate varying sizes.

Benefits

• Improves worker safety
• Eliminates the incidence of worker heat stress or cold stress
• Reduces frequency and duration of non-productive cooling and warming work breaks
• Maximizes worker productivity and comfort in extreme temperatures
• Eliminates the need to air condition large warehouse or shop areas

Features

• Provide continuous, consistent cooling, unlike ice or gel paks
• The Dual Action PAC can be easily switched from one mode to the other by rotating the tube and swapping the muffler from one end to the other.
• Three cooling capacities available in the cooling only mode; heating and cooling model is available at two heat/cool capacities
• Air is delivered at up to +/- 45-60 deg F differential from the compressed air inlet
• Cooling only version has easy temperature adjustment by user, even with gloved hands
• All PAC models are supplied with an adjustable waist belt and an Industrial Interchange style quick connect for attachment to the compressed air supply
• Can be worn under other protective clothing
• Three vest sizes available to fit all workers, plus a vest extension for varying sizes
• Vest is impermeable to sweat, dirt and other contaminants; easily cleaned
• Collar unfolds to deliver air to the neck & face
• Vest allows full range of motion with no airflow restrictions
• Vest collar unfolds to deliver air flow to neck and face
• The vest is made of an abrasion resistant, flame retardant vinyl laminated nylon that is self-extinguishing and has a melting point of 300°F.

Applications

Product Overview

Versatile Spot Cooling for Machining, Repair Shops and More

Cold Air Guns use vortex tube technology and filtered compressed air to produce sub-freezing airas low as -30 deg F for numerous industrial spot cooling applications. With no moving parts to wear out, Cold Air Guns require no electricity, just a compressed air source.

Cold Air Guns are most often used for cooling of metal parts, in the machining and repair of metals, plastics, wood, ceramics and other materials. Cold air machining outperforms mist coolants and substantially increases tool life and feed rates on dry machining operations. The effective cooling from a Cold Air Gun can eliminate heat-related parts growth while improving parts tolerance and surface finish quality. Cold Air Guns have adjustable temperature and flow settings; and some models have a frost free nozzle to eliminate mess from frost and condensation.

Benefits

• Increase dry machining speeds up to 36%
• Extend tool life by 50%
• Eliminates the mess, expense and safety concerns of using mist coolants
• Reduce waiting or normalization time by cooling parts faster
• Eliminate the potential for burning and scorching
• Avoid secondary parts cleaning after machining
• Reduce grinding wheel loading caused by overheating
• Airflow clears sawdust, shavings and dirt away from surface

Features

• Creates cold air up to 100 F deg below the inlet compressed air temperature
• Quiet operation; meets OSHA noise specifications
• Adjustable temperature and flow rate
• Highly reliable with no moving parts
• Low pressure outlet air
• Uses only compressed air – no Freon
• System includes a magnetic base and a 5 micron auto-drain compressed air filter
• Magnetic base allows for easy, close in positioning and easy portability
• Ergonomic trigger mechanism on the Cold Air Pistol
• Frost free nozzle eliminates mess from frost and condensation
