Spillrite Explosion-Proof Vacuum Cleaners are ATEX certified and UKCA certified safe for use in hazardous locations as part of a combustible dust control program and are suitable for most flammable and combustible waste. Spillrite vacuums are certified under ATEX directive for Europe and also UKCA EX which will be the new directive for the UK which comes into effect in 2022. These standards are for equipment approved for use in explosive atmospheres.

The collection bin that sits beneath the cyclone is attached to the the trolley by a tipping frame. This means that when the cyclone is removed the collection bin is cantilevered on the frame to help the operator empty the contents without having to lift the bin. It simply tips on the frame. This ergonomic feature helps prevent workplace injury and strain.
