Karcher IVM 60/30 M Class Zone 22 Industrial Vacuum - 1.573-521.0

ATEX Zone 22 Industrial Vacuum for M Class Explosive Dust

The Kärcher IVM 60/30 M Z22 is a heavy-duty industrial vacuum developed for the safe collection of fine, hazardous and potentially explosive dusts in demanding manufacturing and production environments.

Certified according to 2014/34/EU and suitable for ATEX Zone 22, the IVM 60/30 M Z22 combines Dust Class M filtration with a durable side channel blower and robust industrial construction. It is designed for intensive professional applications where reliable dust control, long operating periods and high levels of durability are essential.

ATEX Zone 22 & Dust Class M

The IVM 60/30 M Z22 is specifically designed for applications where potentially explosive dust atmospheres may occur. Its ATEX Zone 22 suitability makes it an appropriate professional solution for designated industrial areas where combustible dust needs to be collected using correctly certified equipment.

The complete machine is also certified to Dust Class M according to DIN EN 60335-2-69, allowing it to handle appropriate hazardous industrial dusts. An extra-large star filter provides substantial filtration capacity, making the machine suitable for applications involving larger quantities of dust and solids.

Key benefits include:

• Certified for ATEX Zone 22
• Complete machine certified to Dust Class M
• Designed for fine, hazardous and potentially explosive dust
• Large-capacity star filter
• Suitable for demanding industrial environments
• Professional solution for controlled dust recovery

Built for Continuous Industrial Operation

At the heart of the IVM 60/30 M Z22 is a wear-resistant side channel blower designed for intensive industrial use.

Unlike equipment intended primarily for occasional cleaning, the blower is engineered for a service life of at least 20,000 hours and is suitable for multi-shift operation. The machine can also support applications involving multiple suction points, making it particularly valuable in busy production facilities.

This provides:

• Strong, consistent suction performance
• Suitability for prolonged operation
• Multi-shift cleaning capability
• Excellent long-term durability
• Support for multiple suction points
• Reliable performance in demanding production environments

Effective Filter Cleaning

Kärcher's manual Pull-and-Clean filter cleaning system helps maintain suction performance when collecting significant quantities of dust.

The filter can be cleaned during operation using air reversal, helping remove accumulated contamination without lengthy interruptions. This reduces filter loading, extends filter service life and helps keep the vacuum working effectively during demanding cleaning tasks.

Robust Construction for Professional Use

The IVM 60/30 M Z22 is built for harsh industrial conditions. A resistant steel housing protects the machine, while its body and collection container are manufactured from acid-resistant stainless steel.

Large wheels provide improved mobility around production areas, allowing the machine to be repositioned despite its heavy-duty construction.

Practical advantages include:

• Heavy-duty steel construction
• Acid-resistant stainless steel body and container
• Designed for intensive professional use
• Good mobility around industrial facilities
• Built for long-term operation

Best Applications

The Kärcher IVM 60/30 M Z22 is particularly suitable for industrial environments requiring certified collection of appropriate hazardous or potentially explosive dust.

Manufacturing & Production

Ideal for controlling suitable dust generated around production machinery, processing equipment and manufacturing operations.

Engineering & Metal Processing

Suitable for appropriate fine and hazardous dry dust produced during industrial engineering and manufacturing processes.

Processing Facilities

A strong choice for appropriately classified processing environments where ATEX Zone 22 equipment is required.

Multi-Shift Industrial Sites

The durable side channel blower makes the machine particularly valuable for facilities operating extended production schedules where vacuum equipment may be required repeatedly or continuously.

Suitable Materials for Recovery

Subject to the specific material and workplace risk assessment, the IVM 60/30 M Z22 is designed for:

• Wood dust
  
• MDF dust
  
• Flour dust
  
• Wheat dust
  
• Grain dust
  
• Cereal dust
  
• Sugar dust
  
• Starch
  
• Cocoa powder
  
• Coffee dust
  
• Milk powder
  
• Spice powders
  
• Animal-feed dust
  
• Coal dust
  
• Charcoal dust
  

For hazardous and combustible dust applications, suitability should always be confirmed against the specific substance and ATEX classification of the working area before use.

Why Choose the Kärcher IVM 60/30 M Z22?

The Kärcher IVM 60/30 M Z22 is designed for industrial users who require more than a conventional dust extractor.

Its combination of ATEX Zone 22 suitability, Dust Class M certification, large-capacity filtration and a continuous-duty side channel blower makes it a strong solution for demanding industrial dust-control applications.

For manufacturing plants, processing facilities, engineering operations and appropriately classified ATEX environments, the IVM 60/30 M Z22 provides the durability, filtration and long-term operating capability required for professional hazardous-dust recovery.
