Compact Industrial Vacuum for Oils, Coolant and Metal Swarf

The Kärcher IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is a compact industrial vacuum designed for recovering and separating small quantities of liquids and solids, making it particularly well suited to metalworking, engineering and machining environments.

Its powerful twin-motor suction, compact footprint and robust industrial construction make it ideal for workshops and production areas where oils, coolant emulsions and coarse abrasive swarf need to be collected efficiently without using a larger industrial vacuum than necessary. Kärcher specifically positions this model for use in the metal-processing industry.

Powerful Twin-Motor Suction

The IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is fitted with two exceptionally quiet fan motors that provide strong suction performance while keeping operating noise relatively low.

The motors can be switched independently, allowing the operator to adjust suction power depending on the job. This provides useful flexibility for lighter recovery work as well as more demanding liquid and swarf cleaning.

Key benefits include:

Strong professional suction

Two independently switchable fan motors

Suction performance can be adapted to the task

Quiet operation for a more comfortable working environment

Suitable for regular industrial use

Effective recovery of suitable liquids and solids

Kärcher also highlights the drive head design, which helps distribute cooling air evenly while maintaining low operating noise.

Designed for Liquid and Swarf Recovery

The IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is designed specifically for recovering the types of waste commonly produced during machining and metalworking.

• It is well suited to collecting:
• Oils
• Coolant emulsions
• Coarse metal swarf
• Abrasive shavings
• Suitable industrial liquids
• Predominantly dust-free production debris

This makes it particularly useful around CNC machines, lathes, milling equipment and other production machinery where liquid and solid waste accumulate during normal operation.

Efficient Separation of Solids and Liquids

A major advantage of this model is its ability to separate collected solids from recovered liquid.

This helps simplify waste handling in workshops where coolant and swarf are often collected together. Once separated, solids can be disposed of more easily while suitable recovered liquid can be handled separately.

Practical benefits include:

• Easier disposal of metal swarf
• Better separation of solids and liquids
• Cleaner handling of machining waste
• Reduced mess during emptying
• Improved efficiency in workshop environments

This is especially useful for businesses carrying out regular machining operations where mixed waste is generated throughout the working day.

Compact and Easy to Move

Unlike larger industrial vacuums, the IVR-L 65/24-2 Set has been designed with a compact, space-saving footprint.

Its robust chassis allows the machine to be moved easily between different workstations, making it a practical choice for workshops where several machines may need to be cleaned during the same shift.

Mobility benefits include:

• Compact footprint
• Easier movement through busy workshops
• Simple transport between machines
• Reduced storage space requirements

Ideal for smaller production areas

Convenient for maintenance teams working across multiple zones

For facilities that do not require the capacity of a larger industrial vacuum, this compact format can provide a much more practical everyday solution.

Robust Industrial Construction

The IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is built specifically for demanding professional environments.

The machine and chassis use substantial wall thicknesses to improve durability, while the rotating hose connection can turn through up to 360 degrees. This allows operators to work around machinery more freely without constantly repositioning the vacuum.

• Advantages include:
• Heavy-duty construction
• Designed for industrial working conditions
• Flexible hose positioning
• Easier access around machinery
• Reduced need to move the vacuum repeatedly
• Suitable for regular professional use

Best Applications

The Kärcher IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is best suited to industrial environments where smaller quantities of liquid and swarf need to be collected efficiently.

CNC & Machine Shops

Ideal for recovering coolant, oils and metal shavings from around CNC machines, lathes and milling equipment.

Metalworking & Engineering

A practical solution for engineering workshops where small quantities of abrasive swarf and machining fluids are produced regularly.

Manufacturing Facilities

Suitable for routine cleaning around production machinery and workstations where a larger industrial vacuum may be unnecessary.

Industrial Maintenance

Useful for maintenance teams that need a compact and mobile machine for cleaning machinery, collecting spills and removing production debris.

Kärcher specifically identifies this model for small quantities of coarse abrasive swarf and liquids such as oils or coolant emulsions.

Suitable Materials for Recovery

The Kärcher IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is designed for suitable industrial materials including:

• Oils
• Coolant emulsions
• Coarse metal swarf
• Abrasive metal shavings
• Suitable industrial liquids
• Predominantly dust-free solids
• Mixed machining waste

For hazardous, flammable or otherwise specialised materials, the suitability of the machine should always be confirmed before use.

Why Choose the Kärcher IVR-L 65/24-2 Set?

The Kärcher IVR-L 65/24-2 Set is an excellent choice for workshops and engineering facilities that require reliable industrial liquid and swarf recovery without the size or complexity of a larger machine.

Its compact design, strong twin-motor suction, effective solid-liquid separation and robust industrial construction make it particularly well suited to everyday cleaning around machining equipment. The independently controlled fan motors also allow suction performance to be adapted to the task, while the rotating hose connection improves manoeuvrability around production machinery.

For machine shops, engineering companies, manufacturing facilities and maintenance teams, the IVR-L 65/24-2 Set provides a practical balance of performance, mobility and industrial durability.
