Combustible materials such as buffing lint, paper, wood, metal dusts, weld fume, or
flammable coolants or solvents represent potential fire and/or explosion hazards. Use
special care when selecting, installing, and operating all dust, fume, or mist collection equipment when
such combustible materials may be present in order to protect workers and property from serious injury or
damage due to a fire and/or explosion.
Consult and comply with all National and Local Codes related to fire and/or explosion properties of
combustible materials when determining the location and operation of all dust, fume, or mist collection

Description
The Vibra Shake, Model VS Collectors are high-
efficiency, intermittent-duty dust collectors with
cartridge-style filters for airflow ranging from 550 to 3,000
cfm. The patented, self-contained collector uses a high
frequency, vibration filter cleaning system. A cellulose-
based filter cartridge with a nylon mesh pre-filter
provides optimum efficiency and ease of maintenance.
The nylon mesh pre-filter accumulates a dust cake, and
the cartridge acts as a cleanable secondary filter. The
Vibra Shake dust collectors standard features include
an acoustic-lined blower chamber and automatic filter
cleaning.
Designed to increase the versatility of the collector,
standard options include a variety of discharge
arrangements, dust drawer or hopper-style cabinets, and
5- or 55-gallon dust disposal options.
The two-stage filter design makes the VS collector
especially effective on fibrous particulate or bimodal
dust, which is a mixture of large and small particulate.
The VS is for use on negative pressure systems only.
VS collectors are not recommended for applications with
very fine, mono-sized nonagglomerative particulate such
as welding fume. The filter cartridge will effectively filter
the dust, but the high air-to-media ratios will not release
the fine particulate from the filter during cleaning.
Typical VS applications include metal working,
pharmaceutical, composite and precious metals
industries.
Purpose and Intended Use

result in severe personal injury
and/or property damage.
