The Vacteck produced Taipan 500/SB with reverse filter cleaning powered by pneumatic air blasts from Donaldson Filtration is a revolutionary approach to the recovery of sand blast media. The need for long suction hoses would normally require a huge compressor if using a pneumatic system. With the Taipan 500/SB, we use a positive displacement blower for the power and this ensures huge hose lengths. For the reverse filters cleaning we use a small air compressor attached to the system and this powers the reverse air blasts that clean the filter cartidges. A perfect compact systemn that ticks all the boxes. Powerful, compact and at an affordable price. High performance does not need to cost the earth.

	345 cfm blower vacuum can utilise 60-80  metres of 75-100 mm suction hose for the recovery of all sand blast media. Petrol powered with a 20 HP motor this unit can run all day on an oily rag. Inexpensive to run and huge power. The Dresser Roots blower is an American manufactured blower with a good reliability. This unit is based on the Taipan 340 with the Donaldson cyclone on top the tank capacity increases to 500 kg.
	The cyclonic entry for the sand blast media is handled efficiently by the Donaldson TD162 Dust collector cyclonic vacuum entry unit. Coupled with the Taipan 500/SB it is a versatile and effective unit for the recovery of all dry abrasive waste. A quick change of the power lid and the unit becomes a hydro excavation unit or spill control system. The reverse filter cleaning is pneumatically powered giving a clean and strong air blast to the filters. total filter area - 16.722m2 Filter material - Ultra Web Filter cleaning - Reverse Pule Jet Cleaning Compressed air required - 9 SCFM @ 100 psi Sequencing - Pulse Timer
