It is advisable to determine the required suction power based on the nature of the dust particles you need to handle. For instance, when dealing with iron filings, the key considerations regarding dust properties include:
The primary factor is the specific nature of the dust particles. Examples include plastic shavings, metal powders, etc. Other considerations are:
- The volume of dust present;
- Particle size and whether the dust is airborne;
- Whether the dust exhibits adhesive properties;
For instance, graphene dust: fine, abundant, and dry requires a low-power, high-airflow industrial vacuum cleaner.
For metallic dust: large particles, heavy in nature, and abundant quantities necessitate a high-power, high-suction industrial vacuum cleaner.
