Chem Vacs - An Easier Way to Handle Bulk Plastic

Low Temperature Material Handing

In busy industrial environments, moving bulk materials quickly and easily without any loss in quality is critical for smooth day-to-day operation. Traditional pneumatic vacuums expose products to substantial heat through pump systems, or lack the ability to handle long distance transfers. That's where Christianson Systems comes in. With over 5 decades of custom material handling expertise, the engineering team at Christianson came up with an simple, yet effective method of reducing heat through dual positive displacement air pumps and air-to-air heat exchangers. This product quickly became known as the Chem Vac, and began popular in a variety of industries nationwide.

High Capacity, Low Maintenance

The advanced temperature controls build into each Chem-Vac don't come at the expense of speed, with capacities ranging from 15,000 lb/hr to 135,000 lb/hr. Long distance and even vertical transfers are made easier than ever with custom built positive displacement air pumps, as well as easy to extend piping. When it comes time to clean, simply remove the bottom of the convenient air filtration canisters, inspect for damage, rinse the sides, and you're ready for the next job! This bagless filtration system makes it easier for anyone to operate the machine, while reducing the labor associated with cleaning bag-style filters.
