Industrial Grade Central Vacuum Systems

American Vacuum Company is a leading manufacturer of industrial vacuum cleaners and heavy-duty industrial vacuum systems for production lines, material handling, warehouses, and other dust intensive factory areas. Our industrial vacuum cleaners are custom designed and built for tough applications in heavy duty industries that demand sturdy, reliable, high performing equipment. In addition to a complete line of industrial vacuums in stock, we offer custom designed and installed central vacuum systems.

The Right Industrial Vacuums To Get Any Job Done

American Vacuum designs industrial-grade vacuums that handle everything from small, single-operator cleanups to large-scale, multi-operator plant wide house-keeping systems. With the right vacuum system, on-site dust, debris, and hazardous materials are removed quickly and safely, ensuring a cleaner, safer workplace for your team.

Our vacuums are engineered to handle:

  • Explosive dust (grain, metal shavings)
  • Toxic powders (chemical residues)
  • Bulk materials (scrap, chips, pellets, sand, rock)

Some models can be paired with multi-stage centrifugal or positive displacement pumps to create extremely powerful cleaning systems. We also supply system components, including filter baghouses, pre-separators, tubing, vacuum hoses, and a wide range of attachments to match any industrial application.

Custom In-Plant Air Solutions for Any Material

From fine powders to heavy debris, our team can design an in-plant clean air solution tailored to your specific needs. Whether you need a compact single-drop station or a centralized vacuum network for 40 operators and 100 collection points, we can configure a solution that fits your facility layout and operational demands.

 

Industrial Central Vacuum Systems Definition & Function

An industrial central vacuum system is a stationary vacuum unit connected to a permanent piping network. It collects material from multiple points across your facility and can be configured for:

  • Number of operators (single to multi-user)
  • Hose sizes and drop locations
  • Application-specific suction power

These systems not only keep workstations clean but also:

  • Improve air quality for employees
  • Reduce workplace hazards
  • Free up floor space by eliminating portable units
  • Reduce risks associated with combustible dust

Compliance & Safety

Keeping your facility OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) and NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) compliant is essential. Our central vacuum systems are built to meet or exceed these standards, helping control hazardous and combustible dust such as:

For silica dust control, our systems can be equipped with HEPA filters rated at 99.97% efficiency, as required by OSHA, ensuring harmful particles are captured before they reach the air your team breathes.

Types of Industrial Vacuum Systems

We offer several configurations to match different operational needs:

  • Multi-Operational Central Vacuums – Support multiple operators at various stations without loss of suction performance.
  • Heavy-Duty Stationary Vacuums – Cost-effective, quick to install, and based on the proven design of our portable heavy-duty units.
