The Minuteman BPV Pro is a 10 qt commercial backpack vacuum driven by a 1.5 HP single-stage motor that moves 150 CFM. The canister rides on a cushioned back pad with shoulder and waist belts, so the operator walks the route with the hose in hand instead of pushing an upright from room to room.
It suits hallways, offices, aircraft cabins and other commercial spaces where an upright is slow to turn. Dust goes into a disposable paper micro-bag held inside a reusable cloth shakeout bag, and the S10-115 model runs from a standard grounded outlet through its 50' cord.
Features
1.5 HP Motor, 150 CFM
A 1340 W single-stage motor draws 11.5 A and pulls 150 CFM through the 1-1/2" hose for quick soil pickup on carpet and hard floors.
Paper Bag Inside a Cloth Bag
A heavy-duty paper micro-bag catches the dirt inside a reusable cloth shakeout bag, and a dome filter sits over the motor, so the air leaving the unit is cleaner.
Weight Carried on the Hips
A cushioned back pad follows the curve of the back, and the shoulder straps, waist belt and sternum strap move most of the load onto the hips.
Right- or Left-Handed Hose
The static-dissipating hose threads into the lid, which two lever latches lock to the body, so the hose can be set up for either hand.
Converts to a Blower
Swap in the interchangeable lid and the BPV Pro works as a blower as well as a vacuum.
Airflow Kept Around the Bag
A deflector plate keeps heavy debris off the motor filter, and the body tapers 3/4" per side so a full bag does not press against the walls and choke the airflow.
Sound Dampening Foam
Waffle-foam sound dampening lines the body, and Minuteman rates the unit at 67 dB.
50' Safety Cord
The on/off switch is easy to reach, and the 50' 16/3 cord winds around a molded-in cord wrap for storage.
