Nilfisk
Attix 33 Basic Vacuum with InfiniClean™ Filter Cleaning
System - new for
2016. The Attix 33 (8 gallon) and Attix 44 (11 gallon) vacuums
could possibly be the most significant vacuums to come out of
Nilfisk/Alto's "blue line" since the introduction of
the Attix 8 & 12 back in 2005. That's a bit of a bold
assumption, especially considering I haven't had a chance to test
one yet. Initial impressions are very positive.
The 2-stage (optional 3-stage)
filtration levels are impressive for vacuums at this price (see
photos with filter details...click to enlarge). The InfiniClean™ (IC)
series
of machines have
been engineered to work without filter bags. A plastic
containment bag is included with the vacuum to make debris
disposal easier and 5-packs of plastic and fleece bags are
available for purchase as needed. The new 33 & 44 models also
appear to be less prone to tipping than the top heavy 30/50
models. The 30 and 33 are both 8 gallon machines but the 33 is
over 4" longer and 2" lower than the older Attix 30.
The Attix 33 Basic appears to be
a suitable alternative to the older Attix 30 Basic that's been
around since 2009. This is a simple "on/off" machine
without speed control or tool triggered autostart circuitry.
Attix 33 IC Accessories
(standard):
- Hose (Oil resistant) - 1
1/4" x 11'
- Floor Nozzle
- Crevice Nozzle
- Tool Adapter
- 1 Plastic containment bag
- Standard PTFE washable
filter (minimum 99.9% filtration)(107413540)
If you're a rental shop with a
lot of older (ie, round filter) Alto or Wap machines in service,
you may want to stick with the 30 and 50 models. The filters and
bags for the new models will not fit any other WAP/Alto/Nilfisk
vacuums. Also, if you're a contractor doing construction site
cleanups with large debris, the current Attix 30 or 50 models are
currently a better choice as these both come with larger 36mm
(1.5") ID hoses and can be used with 2" hoses if
necessary.
I'll have more details on
performance and noise levels once I get time to test these new
models. The only problem I see so far is the shipping cost will
be high thanks to Fedex and UPS dimension surcharges (actual
shipping weight is 45 lbs, dimensional weight is 78 lbs). I'll be
covering some of the freight cost by offering $10 flat rate
shipping to customers in NY/NJ/CT/MA/MD/DE/PA/OH ...if you're
west of the Mississippi, expect to an additional $30-50 in
shipping cost. I'll provide an exact freight cost before
processing your order.
Here's the 33 model overview
from the product brochure...
ATTIX 33 offers a
remarkable productivity thanks to the automatic filter
cleaning system InfiniClean™. The InfiniClean™
system ensures continuously cleaning of the filter during
operation using a reversed airflow pulse, keeping suction
performance on a high level. The downtime is reduced
significantly, as the container can be filled up without
filter maintenance – even in the most demanding fine
dust applications. Also the washable PTFE long-life filter
minimizes maintenance and reduces the overall service cost.
Easy handling and
user-friendliness - also when it comes to transportation from
one working site to another - are other valuable features for
the ATTIX 33 dust extractor. All models offer flexible
storage solutions for tools and accessories, so everything
you need is at hand.
