EXAIR’s Reversible Drum Vac is one of our most popular products, and with good reason. If you are looking to quickly and easily fill (or empty) a drum with water or a similar liquid, EXAIR’s RDV is undoubtedly the fastest and simplest solution you can find. Coming in 5-, 30-, 55-, and 100-gallon options, the -96″H2O suction head generated by the RDV is perfect for any typical industrial housekeeping or fluid handling application.
Below you will see a short video showcasing how easy the RDV is to install, and just how quickly it operates!
There are some situations, however, where you need a little more power. In scenarios like these, where the liquid exhibits increased viscosity or falls below standard grade, we offer a High Lift Reversible Drum Vac. The High Lift RDV was specifically designed to address these challenges. It produces a suction head of -180″H2O and is equipped with a 20-foot vacuum hose. The High Lift RDV can handle liquids with a viscosity of up to 1,400cP.
As with the standard RDV, the High Lift RDV is compressed air operated, so there are no moving parts, or electrical motors or bearings to wear out. As long as you supply it with a clean and moisture-free source of compressed air, the EXAIR RDV will run for years and years to come.
If you would like to discuss your fluid handling application, then please, give me a call!

At EXAIR, we offer a range of systems specifically engineered to deliver a maintenance-free solution for managing spills and debris in your facility. Our product lineup includes systems tailored for liquids and solids, and a versatile option capable of handling both. These systems are designed for longevity, unlike conventional electric vacuums that often require frequent replacements. For applications dealing with dusty materials, EXAIR’s Heavy Duty HEPA Vac is the ideal choice.
The vacuum generator is made from a durable hardened steel alloy that offers excellent abrasion resistance. Its lever-lock drum lid is compatible with open-top drums of 30, 55, or 110 gallons, facilitating quick transfers between drums. This feature enables users to maintain the separation of various materials for recycling purposes, which is advantageous as recycling companies often pay a premium for pre-sorted materials, enhancing the system’s marketability. It is suitable for use with any open-head steel, fiber, or plastic drum that is in good condition, adhering to ANSI Standard #MH2-2004. For customers lacking a suitable drum, complete premium systems that include the drum and dolly are available. Furthermore, all of EXAIR’s filters undergo rigorous testing in compliance with IEST-RP-CC-007, ensuring a minimum filtration efficiency of 99.97% for particles down to 0.3 microns, thus meeting HEPA standards.
EXAIR’s Heavy Duty HEPA Vac features a design devoid of moving parts, eliminating wear and the need for maintenance, and operates solely on a source of compressed air. Additionally, its static-resistant hose mitigates the risk of painful shocks often encountered when handling dry, dusty materials.
The Model 901373 filter protector is an optional accessory designed to extend the intervals between cleaning the HEPA filter and to safeguard it from wear. To maximize the efficiency of your HEPA-rated filters, this protector is essential. It easily fits over the HEPA filter and pre-filter, securing it in place with a straightforward drawstring mechanism.
If you have any questions about EXAIR‘s Heavy Duty HEPA Vac, or any of EXAIR‘s products, please do not hesitate to reach out.

Most of us think of the electric-powered device that we clean our carpets at home with when we think of vacuum cleaners. The idea of utilizing vacuum in cleaning applications, however, actually predates the widespread introduction of electric power by a couple of decades. The original idea was to marry a manual vacuum-generating device with an existing carpet sweeper that employed a beater brush which turned as the sweeper was pushed across the floor, collecting debris from the floor in its bristles, and depositing it into an internal reservoir. The first “vacuum cleaners” relied on a bellows, piston cylinder, or other such device that was operated by hand, foot – or, according to one source, a rocking chair – to generate a vacuum. It took one person to operate the vacuum-generating part, and another to push the sweeper, though, so they weren’t very popular at a time when folks were generally looking for labor-SAVING products.
Today, of course, the availability of electric power is a given in any industrial or commercial facility, so these manually driven units have long gone by the wayside. That’s not to say that they’re all electrically driven, though – in fact, the most common alternative – compressed air-operated industrial vacuums – are widely used in a variety of situations. Their popularity is due to several key advantages they have over their electric-powered counterparts:
Whether your needs are for a liquid vac, dry vac or both, EXAIR has a comprehensive selection of Industrial Housekeeping Products to choose from. They incorporate a number of features that are quite beneficial in a number of industrial settings:
Filtered exhaust:
Ease of cleaning:
Cross-contamination prevention:
Additionally, EXAIR compressed air-operated Industrial Housekeeping Products have no moving parts to wear, or electrical components to burn out. As long as you supply them with clean air, they’re going to run darn near indefinitely, maintenance free. And since they don’t use impellers, there’s nothing in the way, from the suction tool to the drum, for debris to clog or nest.
Whether you’re looking for a liquid vacuuming system, or something for picking up solid particulate – or both – EXAIR has a comprehensive line of Industrial Housekeeping Products to choose from. If you’d like to find out more, give me a call.
