C Line - Pre-Separators

A pre-separator works between the grinder and the vacuum to catch most of the debris. Generally, the pre-sep catches about 8 bags of debris for every bag that goes into the vacuum.

Well a few things happen that only a pre-sep can make happen:

1. You can now leave the grinder running almost continuously. When it’s time to empty the pre-sep, turn off the vacuum for a few seconds until the dust falls down into the bag. Give the bag a twist, then turn the vacuum and your grinder back on. You can finish bagging (or your helper can) whenever you get a minute, but you can keep grinding with almost no interruption.
2. Since the pre-sep is catching about 90% of the dust, very little is getting to your filters, so the filters only need cleaning once or twice a day.
3. Since the filters barely get any dust in them, they last much longer, needing replacement less than half as often.

You can easily attach your pre-sep to your vacuum, without tools, in less than a minute. Our Vacuum Trailers quickly attach to the vacuum and pre-separator, allowing you to move them as one unit. Since the casters remain free, you get all the maneuverability, and it takes far less time to unload, move and load your equipment.

Your return on investment is far less than a year, usually a few months. Each pre-separator saves a minimum 2 to 8 hours per week. At $15 per hour, that’s $1500 to $6000 each year you use it. Not bad for something that also saves you down time, filter cost, maintenance, etc. Even without saved time and labor, the pre-sep will save enough in replacement filters to pay for itself each year.

Through years of testing and thoughtful design of the cyclonic head with baffles it is the only one that provides a 90% pre-separator efficiency. The intake is at the top which gives the needed time for the larger particles to drop to the bottom. The baffles then keep dust to the outside which allows only the cleanest air to be drawn out of the center of the cyclone that goes to the vacuum.

With the options of having it together as One unit using the vacuum trailer or having it split from the vacuum unit. This allows you up to 65 feet of space in between the grinder in the vacuum. This gives you a lot more more mobility where you do not need to move the vacuum unit, just the pre-separator.

Heavy duty steel tanks integrated frame with the ability to raise and lower the tank, caster wheels and large back wheels make the unit very mobile. Optional stabilizer bars keep the unit from tipping over.

In most vacuum units with the pre-separator attached, the pre-separator is too small. When the pre-separator is too small, most of the dust blows by the pre-separator and still impacts your filters. Pullman Ermator has spent years developing pre-separator units that match any vacuum size, with four different models. Regardless of what vacuum you're using, Pullman Ermator is the right choice to add productivity and efficiency to any job site.
