The Novatek 3.3 gal HEPA backpack vacuum is a wearable recovery unit built to run with Novatek's vacuum-shrouded tools. A steel can on an adjustable harness collects debris through 1.5" crush-proof hose, and four-stage filtration ends in an individually tested and certified HEPA filter.
The air model runs on compressed air alone, 50 cfm at 90 psi, pulls 170 CFM and feeds air to your tool through a built-in take-off with shutoff, which suits scaffolds, boom trucks and hard-to-reach areas. The electric model runs on 120 V at 11 amps and pulls 110 CFM. Either converts to a small floor vac in seconds.
Features
Wearable Harness
Shoulder, chest and waist straps adjust to the operator and keep the frame level, so the vacuum goes wherever the tool goes.
Live Air Take-Off on Air Model
A T fitting on the vacuum head supplies the shrouded tool from the same air line, with a shutoff valve on the vacuum.
Four-Stage Filtration
A two-ply paper bag, a white intermediate filter and further stages protect the HEPA filter and extend its life.
Certified HEPA Filter
Each HEPA filter is individually tested and certified before it is fitted.
Backpack or Floor Vac
Two speed pins release the harness frame, turning the backpack into a small floor vacuum in seconds.
Air Dryer Standard on Air Model
The in-line filter/dryer comes installed on the pneumatic version.

About Novatek
Novatek Corporation, based in Pennsylvania, designs and builds industrial surface preparation and air filtration equipment for contractors, shipyards, plants and abatement crews. Its range runs from pneumatic needle scalers, scaling hammers and long-reach scrapers to vacuum-shrouded tools, HEPA vacuums, contained blast systems, Novastrip infrared tile strippers and the Novair line of portable air scrubbers.
The 3.3 gal backpack is the portable member of Novatek's VSE HEPA vacuum line; the 15 gal floor vacuum handles higher-capacity cleanup. Both pair with Novatek's shrouded tools, including the RotoPeen, SRAT grinder and DDS-3 drill shroud, and we also carry the backpack's 12" HEPA filter and the moisture filter dryer and cartridge for the air models.
