If you need large amounts of scrap material or liquids picked up, the units of choice are industrial cylinder vacuum cleaners. They can be operated by compressed air, gasoline, diesel or electricity. Many types are available from single operator backpack vacuums to heavy duty vacuum trucks. The power for the motor is always specified in horsepower in the specifications manual. The air stream’s speed or airflow is created by the vacuum pressure and is referred to as static pressure or sometimes water lift. The pressure differential across the filter determines if it can pick up dry material or wet media.
