Nilfisk GM80 Museum Package Canister Industrial Vacuum

Museums are filled with precious artifacts that need careful attention when it comes to cleaning. The Nilfisk GM80 Museum Vacuum is an ideal solution to help curators and other museum professionals keep artifacts, exhibits, and delicate items clean and in great condition. This commercial-grade vacuum features a 2.25-gallon bag capacity, a multi-stage HEPA filtration system, a 7-piece micro toolkit, variable speed control, and more. The Nilfisk Museum Vacuum Cleaner is also a popular vacuum for users in the pharmaceutical industry. With the added microtool kit, cleaning up fine hazardous dust and powders in pharmaceutical settings is easier, more detailed, and quicker. Variable suction and micro-attachments also make vacuuming small crevices, such as those on keyboards and sensitive electronic equipment, more effective than with conventional vacuums. Multi-Stage HEPA Filtration Whether you are vacuuming a sensitive environment or simply trying to maintain cleanliness, the last thing you want is to risk releasing harmful airborne particles and pollutants back into your space through the system's exhaust. That's why the Nilfisk Museum Package Vacuum is equipped with a robust, four-stage filtration system to ensure that your vacuum's exhaust—and your environment—remain clean. This four-stage system includes: Filtering Dust Bag: Nilfisk synthetic dust bags collect most of the large dust particles and debris you encounter for simple disposal. Smaller particles, such as fine dust and allergens, move through the dust bag to be caught by the remaining filters. Main Filter: This oversized filter maintains a steady, even airflow to prolong filter life and ensure optimal vacuum and filtration performance. The filter retains 99.8 percent of particles as small as 0.3 microns. Micro-Filter: This vacuum features an optional polyester micro-filter designed to protect the vacuum motor and filter out microscopic particles, such as bacteria. This filter is efficient in retaining 99.5 percent of particles greater than 0.2 microns in size. HEPA Filter: As the final and most effective stage of filtration, the GM-80 Museum Vacuum's HEPA filter captures 99.97 percent of particles sized down to 0.3 microns, which often include the most toxic and hazardous dusts in your environment. Each Nilfisk HEPA filter is individually tested to meet these efficiency specifications. As an option, the Nilfisk GM 80 with Variable Speed Control can be upgraded to include an ULPA, or Ultra Low Penetration Air, filter. The tightly woven ULPA filter (sold separately) can filter out 99.999 percent of particles as small as 0.12 microns in size and lasts approximately 1,000 hours under normal use. This filter is especially beneficial for maintaining a clean, contaminant-free environment in sensitive spaces. Other Key Features The Nilfisk Museum Vacuum with Variable Speed Control includes a number of features to ensure easy, reliable, and effective cleaning for years to come. 7-Piece Microtool Kit: Use the tools in this kit to safely vacuum small objects. The kit includes a coupling/bleed valve, a 24-inch braided hose, a round dust brush, an oval dust brush, a crevice nozzle, a 5-inch straight wand, and a 5-inch angled wand. Variable Speed Control: This vacuum comes with a variable speed control unit that installs onto the vacuum. During operation, the speed control unit allows you to adjust vacuum suction from 1 to 100 percent of the machine's total power to suit your cleaning task. Thermal Motor Protection: Each Nilfisk Museum Vacuum features a motor thermal protection device that prevents overheating whether it's caused by a failure to properly maintain filters or an accidental blockage in a nozzle or hose. Standard Attachments: Along with the microtool kit, the Museum Package Vacuum includes Nilfisk's standard attachment set. The set includes a combination floor nozzle, upholstery tool, crevice tool, round dust brush, plastic hose, and 2 extension wands. Ball-Joint Attachment Couplings: All Nilfisk vacuum attachments feature ball-joint couplings that allow 360 degrees of movement without damaging the hose or creating knots that reduce suction. Interference-Suppressed Motor: These Nilfisk industrial vacuums have interference-suppressed motors that will not interfere with sensitive electronic equipment. Trolley: A detachable trolley allows you to maneuver the vacuum safely and easily while you clean. Large Carrying Handle: Easily tote the vacuum from space to space using the large, stable carrying handle. 5 Dust Bags Included: A pack of five 2.25-gallon dust bags is included with each Nilfisk Museum Package Vacuum.
