Vacuum cleaners Hitachi: varieties and features of operation
Construction (they are also industrial) vacuum cleaners are supplied to the market by many companies. Still, Hitachi products are one of the best options. Let's try to figure out how to choose and use them.
Basic models
WDE 3600
The WDE 3600 modification, according to the manufacturer, is ideal for dry and wet cleaning of industrial premises. The system can remove water and wetted debris. To do this, you will need to remove the filters in advance and connect the anti-foam filter. Thanks to the capacity of the dust collector (30 l), the duration of the autonomous action is very long. The device easily interacts with an electric tool with a power of 0.04 to 2 kW.
The WDE 3600 is compatible with a variety of grinders, furrowers and more. The wheels make it easier to move the machine. The mains cable is wound around the case for compact storage. The case itself is made of metal, which increases the durability of the movement.
The Hitachi vacuum cleaner is made according to the classical scheme; the filter will have to be cleaned manually.
The power of the device is 1.2 kW. In a second, 55 liters of air pass through it. The total weight is 10.6 kg. Dust is fed into the container through a 1.7 m long hose. Power is not regulated, the device is not designed for blowing. Package Included:
- a pair of extension tubes;
- dust collector made of paper;
- combined nozzle;
- hose;
- polyester air filter;
- special adapter.
The weight of the structure is 15.2 kg. Its dimensions are 0.75x0.42x0.42 m.
RP150YB
If we talk about other models designed for both dry and wet cleaning, you should pay attention to the RP150YB. The roller wheels are easy to turn, making it easy to move the vacuum cleaner. The design is designed to remove both dry and wet and even liquid contamination.
The collector-type motor will definitely not get wet, even if the standard tank is overfilled with dirty water. The long (8 m) power cable and 3 m suction hose allow you to work comfortably. The distance from the outlet is almost irrelevant. The RP150YB is manufactured in the usual "classic" design and the filter will still need to be cleaned by hand. The total power is 1.14 kW.
The second air consumption is 58.33 liters. But a tank with a capacity of 15 liters can be considered to some extent a disadvantage. The rarefaction of the air jet at the entrance to the vacuum cleaner reaches 220 mbar.
The developers have taken care of a built-in socket for an electric tool. The sucked-in dust is redirected to the container via a 3.8 cm hose.
RP250YE
It is useful to pay attention to the RP250YE model as well. The device is completed with a "floating" unit. As a result, as in the previous cases, the leakage of liquid into the engine from the overfilled tank is excluded. The manufacturer took care of equipping the vacuum cleaner with a long hose and a power cord. Therefore, RP250YE has a high autonomy.
The vacuum cleaner consumes 1.14 kW per hour of operation, and the dust is sent to a container with a capacity of 25 liters. An external power tool can be connected if necessary. Unfortunately, the blowing function is missing. Any household 220 V power supply is suitable for power supply. The standard hose included in the kit is 3 m long. Also included in the delivery set:
- round brush;
- special adapter;
- extension tubes;
- handle for connection;
- nozzle that cleans the crevices.
RB40SA
Now let's see what the RB40SA model is. This device is recommended for putting things in order:
- tobacco;
- woodworking;
- textile;
- sawmills;
- in repair and service workshops.
The device can both draw in dust and blow off dirt from various machines.
With a mass of 1.7 kg, the power of the device is 0.55 kW, which is not so bad in the corresponding class. In an hour, you can use 228 cubic meters for blowing. m of air.
WDE 1200
The next device in our rating is the WDE 1200 vacuum cleaner. It belongs to the professional category.
To save energy, the designers came up with a powerful motor with a two-stage control system. Thanks to the attachments included in the kit, it is possible to maximize the scope of application. But it must be borne in mind that filling the internal tank immediately increases the noise during operation. There is only one way to avoid this problem - by carefully monitoring the amount of incoming and accumulating garbage.
The power of the device is 1.2 kW. In a second, 48 liters of air pass through the vacuum cleaner. The volume of the built-in tank is 24 liters, and the vacuum air flow at the inlet is 220 mbar. The device weighs 5.8 kg. Suction hose - 1.7 m.
The WDE 1200 is equipped with an indicator that shows the fill level of the container. But the blowing function is not provided. There is also no option to rewind the power cable. The delivery set, in addition to the paper bag, includes an air filter, a pair of extension tubes and a combination nozzle. The weight of the mechanism is 12.1 kg; dimensions - 0.6x0.42x0.42 m.
S24E
The S24E construction vacuum cleaner is equipped with bags with a capacity of 22 liters. The power of the mechanism is 1.2 kW. The functionality is quite decent, both a wet cleaning mode and air flow regulation are provided. The network cable is 6 m long.
It is worth noting that this vacuum cleaner works quite loudly, emitting sound up to 74 dB in normal mode.
The positive aspects of the device can be considered:
- dust filling indication;
- high quality polyester filter;
- rather long (1.7 m) hose.
R7D-TH
For cleaning in hard-to-reach places where there is no constant power supply, Hitachi cordless vacuum cleaners, including R7D-TH, are used. The device is ideal for both summer cottages and garage. In the basic mode, the device sucks in air with a force of 18 W. When energy has to be saved, this figure drops to 5 watts. Moving, as well as storage, is simplified thanks to the compact design of the vacuum cleaner.
Reviews
Hitachi WDE3600, many people safely advise to buy. But at the same time, there are complaints about the insufficient length of the hose. However, this problem can be easily and effectively solved. Experts advise to always change paper bags for fabric counterparts. Then there will definitely not be any difficulties at work.
The WDE1200 is also well appreciated by consumers. The device deserves a positive assessment thanks to the nozzles included in the delivery set. Connecting the vacuum cleaner to any power tool is easy and simple. However, after 3-4 years of operation, the case may become cracked. They arise even with careful use, simply due to overheating.
The main area of application of the vacuum cleaner is keeping clean when working with hammer drills and miter saws. However, the tool will also allow you to put things in order after the completion of the repair. If necessary, you can even prepare a screed for subsequent self-leveling.
Please note that a full indicator is not provided. We'll have to get used to recognizing this moment by sound.
Important nuances
Talking about the characteristics of cleaning machines, about the length of hoses and power cables can go on for a long time. But more importantly, Hitachi produces more than just construction vacuum cleaners. The range of the concern also includes garden blowers. Choosing the right device, you cannot focus only on the price. Even a very high cost does not always mean optimal quality.
Manual mechanisms work well in a small area, but if you want to put things in order in a large garden, you will have to work for a very long time.Knapsack options are similar to them. These vacuum cleaners are also used in a limited area or when it is possible to systematically throw out garbage. Wheeled versions are recommended for cleaning large gardens. But in any case, it is worth paying attention to the speed of the air stream; it should not be less than 270 km / h.
Garden vacuum cleaners of all models will give good results only if the manufacturer's recommendations are followed. So, shredders effectively turn only large leaves into mulch. Smaller parts of plants are not crushed. Do not think that a garden vacuum cleaner will remove wet leaves in wet weather or cope with adhering snow. It is also important to understand that this technique is not intended for crushing cones, nuts, hard shells, needles.
Sometimes the garden vacuum cleaner breaks down from frequent impacts on hard objects. Therefore, it is undesirable to use it on rocky areas.
Do not bring the nozzle closer to the ground. Otherwise, soil particles will be sucked in. Then more time will be spent on disassembly and cleaning than on the work itself.
Work rules
When working, it is important that the workwear is supplemented with protective goggles. Ideally, the garden vacuum cleaner is turned on, after putting on a deaf mask. It is advisable to first drive the leaves into heaps using the blower mode, and only then suck them in; this will turn out faster than chasing each leaf separately.
But the already described construction vacuum cleaner must also be used correctly. First of all, you should read the instructions and clarify whether the model allows water to be sucked in or not. If not, then immediately there are restrictions both on the types of work and on the serviced premises. The paper filter that filters the air in front of the motor should be changed frequently. Fabric filters are used only in a critical situation, when nothing else is at hand.
