The PrestiVac AV1-55 EX HEPA is the bulk-recovery model of the air-operated AV1 line: a 45-gallon stainless drum on a caster dolly, driven by compressed air with no electrical components. It delivers 200" H₂O of suction and 120 CFM for spill cleanup and large-area housekeeping.
PrestiVac rates it for Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C and D and Class II, Division 1, Groups E, F and G. A 15' suction hose gives extra reach around tanks, hoppers and conveyors.

Long 15' Suction Hose
A 1.5" x 15' static-dissipating hose reaches further from where the drum is parked.

Setup & Placement
Connect the static-dissipating air line to a clean, dry compressed-air supply that can hold the rated pressure at the unit while it runs. A long or undersized supply line drops pressure and suction with it.
Keep the static-dissipating suction hose and tools on the unit so the ground path stays continuous, and empty the tank before it is full so the filters keep breathing.

About PrestiVac
PrestiVac Inc. designs and builds industrial vacuums for hazardous locations and contamination-controlled work, with design and manufacturing done at its own plant in Dover, Delaware. Every unit is stainless steel with no painted components, and the whole machine is grounded and static dissipating so a spark or static charge has nowhere to start.
The AV1 drum models cover three tank sizes: the AV1-10 EX HEPA at 7 gallons, the AV1-15 EX HEPA at 10 gallons and the AV1-55 EX HEPA at 45 gallons. The AV1-10 EX RCT HEPA and AV1-20 EX RCT HEPA add a removable-tank cart, and the AV1-1 EX HEPA is a 1-gallon unit for spot work.
