Nilfisk VHS 120 LC Industrial Vacuum (37L) – Commercial Wet and Dry Vacuum

Execute heavy-duty material extraction and maintain impeccable worksite safety with the highly formidable Nilfisk VHS 120 LC Industrial Wet & Dry Vacuum Cleaner. In commercial manufacturing plants, automotive workshops, and construction environments, dealing with a constant mixture of fine hazardous dust and massive liquid spills is a severe operational challenge. Standard commercial vacuums lack the necessary suction power and filtration integrity to handle these environments. This professional-grade commercial wet and dry vacuum provides the ultimate, compact industrial solution. Engineered with a highly robust twin by-pass motor setup, it generates an exceptional 5,200 L/min of airflow, effortlessly pulling heavy metal shavings, abrasive concrete dust, and thick liquid slurry into its secure 37-Litre steel container.

Designed for unparalleled worksite versatility and operator convenience, the Nilfisk VHS 120 LC features a highly compact footprint, allowing cleaning staff to navigate tight warehouse aisles and crowded machinery bays where larger industrial units cannot fit. The machine is equipped with a sophisticated multi-stage filtration system, including a cyclonic pre-filter, a main washable filter, and an integrated filter shaker system to prevent clogs during intense dry vacuuming. Compatible with optional HEPA safety filters for hazardous dust environments, these elite commercial cleaning machines provide facility managers and industrial contractors with a highly reliable, heavy-duty asset for maintaining pristine, compliant workspaces.

Who Is The Nilfisk VHS 120 LC Industrial Vacuum Ideal For?

The Nilfisk VHS 120 LC delivers a twin by-pass motor, a 37L stainless steel container, and a compact industrial footprint. It is highly recommended for:

  • Manufacturing & Fabrication Plants: Utilizing a highly robust industrial vacuum cleaner to safely extract heavy metal shavings, abrasive grinding dust, and machine coolants from tight workshop floors safely and efficiently.
  • Construction & Renovation Contractors: Relying on the powerful 5,200 L/min airflow and cyclonic pre-filter to effectively manage massive volumes of fine plaster and concrete dust without the motors burning out.
  • Automotive Workshops & Garages: Taking absolute advantage of the dual wet/dry capability to rapidly clean up heavy oil spills and detailed dry dirt from mechanic bays using a single, heavy-duty machine.
  • Facility OH&S Managers: Deploying premium commercial cleaning machines that are compatible with advanced HEPA filters, ensuring strict worksite compliance when dealing with hazardous airborne particulates.

Key Features and Performance Benefits:

  • Twin By-Pass Motor System: The ultimate extraction advantage. The dual 2000W motors generate massive suction pressure (21 kPa). The 'By-Pass' design ensures wet, dirty air bypasses the electrical components, guaranteeing complete safety during liquid extraction.
  • Compact Industrial Footprint: Maximizes worksite maneuverability. Despite its heavy-duty performance, the chassis is highly compact, allowing operators to easily wheel the unit through narrow doorways and tight production lines.
  • Multi-Stage Cyclonic Filtration: Protects the internal engine. The cyclonic pre-filter forces heavy dust down into the bin before it reaches the main filter, drastically reducing clogs and maintaining consistent suction power.
  • Integrated Filter Shaker: Improves continuous workflow. If suction drops during heavy dry vacuuming, the operator can use the manual shaker system to instantly knock dust off the main filter without opening the machine.
  • 37-Litre Stainless Steel Container: Built for extreme worksite survival. The heavy-duty steel tank resists corrosion from harsh liquids and withstands severe physical impacts, ensuring a long, reliable service life.

What is the advantage of a 'Twin By-Pass' motor?

A twin motor system provides double the airflow for extreme suction. 'By-Pass' means the wet, dirty air sucked from the floor bypasses the electrical components entirely, which is a critical safety requirement for vacuuming liquids.

Does this vacuum come with a HEPA filter?

The standard VHS 120 LC comes with a highly effective cyclonic pre-filter and a main washable filter. A certified HEPA or safety filter for hazardous dust is available as an 'Optional Extra' that can be purchased separately.

Can I use this machine to suck up water spills?

Yes! This is a true 'Wet & Dry' industrial vacuum. It is explicitly engineered to handle both fine dry dust and heavy liquid spills, such as machine coolants or flooded floors, with absolute safety.

How does the 'Filter Shaker' work?

When vacuuming fine dust (like concrete), the filter can become coated. Instead of opening the machine, you pull the external filter shaker handle. This physically vibrates the internal filter, dropping the caked-on dust into the bin and instantly restoring suction.

Is the tank made of plastic or metal?

This is a heavy-duty industrial machine. The 37-Litre collection container is manufactured from high-grade Stainless Steel, making it highly resistant to rust, corrosion, and severe worksite impacts.

Do I need to use disposable dust bags?

For general dry dust, using a disposable filter bag inside the steel drum is highly recommended to protect the primary filters and make emptying the bin much cleaner. For wet liquid extraction, you MUST remove the paper bag first.

Is this machine too large for standard doorways?

No. Despite its industrial performance, the VHS 120 LC is built on a highly compact chassis. At only 560mm wide, it easily fits through standard commercial doorways and navigates tight factory aisles.

Are the floor tools and hoses included?

Yes! The machine is supplied as a complete, ready-to-use kit. It includes the flexible hose, extension tubes, a commercial floor nozzle, and a crevice tool for detailed cleaning.

Is the main filter washable?

Yes. The standard main filter is washable. However, you MUST ensure it is allowed to air-dry completely (usually 24 to 48 hours) until it is 100% bone dry before reinstalling it for dry vacuuming.

How long is the power cable?

The vacuum is equipped with a highly generous 10-metre commercial power cable, providing an excellent cleaning radius across large workshop floors without constantly switching power points.

Is 38kg too heavy to move around?

While 38kg is substantial, the weight is necessary for the heavy-duty twin motors and steel construction. The unit is securely mounted on a robust trolley with heavy-duty castors, allowing it to roll very smoothly across flat concrete.

Do you offer trade pricing for manufacturing plants?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for industrial manufacturing plants, commercial cleaning contractors, and construction teams ordering heavy-duty extraction equipment. Contact us to establish your account.
