Product Details
The Shop-Vac® 10 gallon, 6.0 peak HP industrial wet/dry vacuum is designed for job site cleanup, workshops, garages, and basements, providing powerful suction for various applications. It features a durable poly construction and uses a cartridge/collection/foam filter system. The peak horsepower (PHP) rating is a standard used for consumer comparisons, not reflective of operational horsepower, as actual performance can vary based on usage. The vacuum's air movement is measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM), which depends on the system load determined by factors such as hose type, accessory tools, and filter condition; a dirty filter can significantly reduce suction and airflow, necessitating regular cleaning and replacement. The sealed pressure (SP) suction pressure is measured in inches of water, indicating the vacuum's lifting capability, which decreases as airflow increases. Overall vacuum performance, defined as air power, is influenced by suction and airflow at a given point and can be diminished by factors like dirty filters, leaks, and attachments. The product includes essential components for effective operation and is compliant with relevant industry standards, ensuring reliability in diverse environments.
