Taking the lead in the battle against concrete dust and slurry

Cutting, drilling, grinding and demolishing concrete, brick and other hard construction materials creates dust and slurry. And the more productive you are, the more of it you create. To protect you and your team from dust exposure, to reduce unnecessary wear and tear on your equipment, and to minimise clean-up time, dust and slurry has to be removed safely and efficiently.

As one of the world’s leading suppliers of light construction equipment, Husqvarna is perfectly positioned to provide the best total solutions for efficient dust and slurry management.
This is why we are now fully integrating some of the world’s best equipment to handle dust and slurry in our total product and service offering, and to distribute it through our global network.

With the high-performance Husqvarna system solutions presented here, you can be sure to handle your dust and slurry in a smarter, safer and more efficient way. From source to disposal, whether you do wet or dry jobs. And this is important, because at the bottom line, every breath counts.

Recommended work methods for safe and efficient dust control

One of the best ways to control dust is by using water. If possible, use enough water while wet cutting/drilling to bind the dust directly at the source. To keep the workplace clean, a slurry collector can be attached to a slurry vac. If using water is not an option on the site, the cutting/drilling/grinding equipment should be used with an integrated dust collection device or tight-fitting dust shroud that captures dust directly at the source. This device should be connected to a dust extractor with the appropriate airflow and capacity for the application, and be equipped with HEPA H13 filters.
When cleaning the floor of the work area, use a scraper instead of a broom. And when vacuum cleaning, always use a dust extractor equipped with HEPA H13 filters.
NOTE: Standard/household vacuum cleaners are not able to catch respirable dust particles and should not be used for this purpose.

As a complement, using one or more portable air cleaners/scrubbers, equipped with efficient HEPA H13 filters, is an easy way to further reduce the level of respirable dust in the air, providing additional protection for all workers in the surrounding areas. For sufficient protection from intense or long-term dust exposure, the operator should also wear an -air-purifying respirator."

Handling the smallest dust particles is the biggest challenge

Dust particles hovering in the air at construction sites contain a number of different substances. Some of these can be harmful or irritating if inhaled, such as asbestos fibres, crystalline silica, mould, soot, PCBs and certain microbes. Dust from cutting, drilling and grinding concrete, brick and similar building materials contains crystalline silica, which can be hazardous when very small (respirable) particles are inhaled. These respirable particles can penetrate deep into the lungs and may cause serious injuries.
They are so small that they might hover in the air for hours, invisible to the naked eye. This is why it’s important to always use work methods that catch dust at the source and prevent it from becoming airborne. Using high-quality professional dust control equipment, and personal rotective equipment that can catch even the smallest silica particles are some of the best ways to handle dust.

Husqvarna T-line | 3-phase HEPA H13 Dust Extractors

The perfect match for heavy-duty dry jobs

The Husqvarna T-line is developed for large-scale projects that demand substantial dust extraction. The machines can deal with materials that are difficult to handle, such as grinding dust and demolition materials in a wide variety of applications. The powerful motors deliver airflow well efficiently for all types of floor grinding machines as well as for local or central vacuum systems in construction work.
The heavy-duty filter system collects the dust in three separate stages, from the heaviest to the finest dust particles, providing a large collecting capacity and long filter life. Individually tested and certified HEPA H13 filters required for respirable silica dust are fitted as standard. The Longopac® bag hose system ensures simple and safe dust bag changes.

Husqvarna W-line | High performance slurry vacuums

The industry benchmark for wet jobs

The Husqvarna W-Line of slurry vacs is designed for the toughest jobs a slurry vacuum cleaner can handle. Where most wet/combi vacs can only handle water, the W-Line can manage liquids such as concrete slurry, oils and machining coolants. The renowned quality, durability, efficiency and long, trouble-free service life has earned the W-Line the status of a modern classic.
By using high-quality stainless steel components, a unique combination of a 3-stage filter system and a large-volume slurry float together with well-considered pump solutions, the W-Line delivers uninterrupted, high-capacity slurry evacuation all day long. W-Line can also handle occasional collecting of dry dust and can be equipped with an optional HEPA H13 filter.

Husqvarna S-line | Single-phase HEPA H13 dust extractors

Uninterrupted efficiency in all dry jobs

The Husqvarna S-line consists of professional dust extractors designed to meet strict demands. These compact, lightweight machines are equipped with one, two or three powerful single-phase electric motors with separate cooling, capable of running continuously all workday. This makes them suitable for all construction, abatement and restoration jobs, as well as electric power tools.
The Jet Pulse cleaning of the conical main filter ensures that the dust is continuously collected through the full work day. The Longopac® collecting bag enables the machine to be emptied quickly and easily. All of the machines have been designed specifically for HEPA H13 filters which are individually tested and certified. This results in superior and safer dust collection, even with fine sanding and gypsum dust.

Husqvarna A-line | Portable air cleaners

The ideal complement to your air quality system

The Husqvarna A-Line includes some of the most advanced and versatile portable air cleaners available on the market. They are tested and certified for use as both Air Cleaners and Negative Air Machines, making them the ideal complement to your dust and slurry management equipment, as well as in other applications where good air quality is essential. The Husqvarna A-Line provides added workplace safety, and aids in legal compliance. The compact design makes the units easy to move and transport.
Due to the efficient filter system and a design that is perfectly matched to operation with HEPA H13 filters, these air cleaners provide superior air quality – no matter if you’re dealing with concrete dust, fine sanding dust or gypsum dust. For health and safety reasons, the number of air cleaners should be calculated so that the entire air volume on the worksite is filtered at least 6 to 10 times per hour.
