Line Vac™
Convey parts, materials, waste - with no moving parts!
A Model 6080 3/4" (19mm) Line Vac
vacuums plastic as it is drilled.
What Is The Line Vac?
Back To Top
EXAIR's compressed air operated Line Vac connects to standard hose or tube to create a powerful in-line conveyor. The compact design features large throat diameters for maximum throughput capacity. Eleven sizes in aluminum and ten sizes in stainless steel are suited to a wide variety of transfer applications.
Why The Line Vac?
Back To Top
Line Vac conveyors are ideal for moving large volumes of material over long distances. A small amount of compressed air is injected through directed nozzles to produce a vacuum on one end and high output flows on the other, with instantaneous response. The material flow rate is easily controlled with a pressure regulator. An optional bracket permits easy mounting. No moving parts or electricity assures maintenance-free operation.
The Model 6083 1 1/2" (38mm) Line Vac
conveys plastic granules to the gravity feed
hopper on an extruder.
Line Vac is a fast, low cost way to convey:
- Plastic pellets
- Scrap trim
- Textiles
- Bulk solids
- Food products
- Chips
- Paper
- Pills/tablets
- Small parts
- Shavings
- Sawdust
- Granules
The Model 6084 2" (51mm)
Line Vac transports scrap trim
to a waste barrel.

Select the Right Model
Line Vac is available in a wide range of sizes to fit your application. Some of the criteria used to select the proper model are:
- Diameter of parts being conveyed
- Diameter of hose or tube
- Rate (weight or volume)
- Stainless steel (Type 303 and 316) or aluminum
Aluminum is the economical choice for general purpose conveying. Our standard stainless steel models (Type 303) offer good corrosion resistance and are ideal for food service, abrasive or corrosive applications. For critical applications including certain foods and pharmaceutical products, Type 316 stainless steel models provide excellent corrosion resistance.
The High Temperature Line Vac models are suited for temperatures up to 900°F (482°C). Frequently used for sampling hot flue gases, this High Temperature Line Vac can resist back pressure from long pipe lengths with numerous bends. New Heavy Duty Line Vac moves the highest volumes and resists wear.
