New RIDGIDŽ Industrial Wet /Dry Vacs are Powerful, Durable
ELYRIA, OHIO - March 2007 - Ridge Tool Company has introduced its new line of RIDGIDŽ industrial two-stage wet/dry vacuums, which are designed specifically for clean up of heavy debris and liquids. Two models are available, offering a 14-gallon (Model No. RV2400A) and 16-gallon (Model No. RV2600B) drum.
The stronger, quieter RV two-stage proprietary motor series and its patented blower wheel are designed to handle heavy debris and liquid more quickly and efficiently. A three-layer pleated filter has a large surface area for increased motor efficiency and long life. The two models convert to a blower, with 150 mph blowing velocity.
Both models feature a rugged polypropylene drum, which is impact and corrosion resistant, as well as a durable two-layer ProHose that is 10-feet long. Combined with the vacuums longer, 25-foot power cord, the user can cover more of the jobsite.
An automatic suction shut-off function senses and prevents liquid overflow. The integral plug makes draining the vacuum quick and easy.
Each model comes with an attached tool bag on the extended cart handle, which assures minimum footprint and maximum portability. The 16-gallon model has special non-marring wheels and a steel tool/wand collection. A variety of accessories are available for both models to increase end-user efficiency on various jobsites.
"The new RIDGID two-stage wet/dry vacuums shorten the time needed to remove heavy debris and liquid from any jobsite, and increases user up time by cutting down clean up time," said David Schramm, product manager, Ridge Tool.
