Maximum sanitation in flour mills.
Fast and reliable cleaning of sieves and floors in and around sifters.
Cleanliness in food processing plants
A maximum level of cleanliness is indispensable if you
want to comply with sanitation and occupational safety
regulations in flour mills and bakeries. But conventional
industrial vacuum cleaners meet their limits when dust and
product residues are to be rapidly and com­p letely re-
moved and machinery is to be efficiently cleaned. In this
respect, Bühler VacuumClean sets new standards in terms
of performance, cost efficiency, and reliability.
Your central cleaning and conveying system
Dust and product residues can be simultaneously removed
via vacuum hoses at several points of your production sys­-
tem and be collected through a piping network.

VacuumClean can be integrated seamlessly in your pro-
duction processes and if required also in your process
control system. This enables you to benefit from an indi-
vidual solution that maximizes sanitation and helps you
comply with occupational safety requirements.
The benefits of VacuumClean at a glance:
– Fast, efficient cleaning
– Flexible application
– Customized solutions
– Maximum safety
– Top reliability

Faster cleaning
VacuumClean enables you to simultaneously remove dust
at as many as six points – without any loss of efficiency.
You can speed up cleaning of critical areas and minimize
expensive plant downtimes.

Effective cleaning system

The waste is collected through the piping network in
centralized containers outside the production area. This
allows you to increase your disposal security and avoid
having unhygienic waste containers in your production
plant. Unlike conventional industrial vacuum cleaners, also
residual dust, fine dust, mites, and microorganisms are
dependably removed from process areas.

Optional: Separation of coarse impurities and foreign

bodies by magnetic separator and control sifter.

The clean solution for flour mills and bakeries

VacuumClean is based on a brilliant principle: Dust and other
product residues can be taken in at several building levels
and in different production areas and be transported through
a piping network to a central collection point. Therefore, the
system comprises more than just the vacuum blower and the
suction piping. It also includes the required piping network,
the dust collection filter systems, and the collection contain-
ers plus the process control system – based on a customized Conveying to the final

Flexible solutions offering top reliability.
Tailored to specific needs and low in maintenance.
Customized solutions meeting specific needs
VacuumClean is a cleaning and conveying system that can
be tailored to your individual requirements and processes.

The number and position of the connections depend

solely on your specific needs and the technical conditions
of your plant. A wide range of vacuum accessories
are available for ensuring optimal, convenient cleaning.

Higher level of occupational safety and production

reliability
Clean exhaust air in a production plant is an important aspect
in the field of occupational safety. The centralized dust intake
system of VacuumClean ensures dust-free air in your produc-
tion plant and thus optimal working conditions. Also the noise
emissions are markedly lower than those of industrial vacuum
cleaners.

Moreover, certified system components and antistatic

piping ensure maximum occupational safety in day-to-day
use. If required, also ATEX-certified components are
available.

Minimized maintenance
VacuumClean reduces the maintenance requirement to a
single, rugged system with tested components and a long
life cycle.

Customized control by integration of the VacuumClean

in the process control system – even via Smartphone.

Convenient: floor nozzle on castors. Flexible: add-ons for every cleaning situation. Practical: basket with hose holder.
