VPF-57-DCP SERIES VACUUM STATIONS
Self-contained battery powered vacuum generators
Product Overview
Generator shown with radio controls
ANVER’s VPF-57-DCP Vac-Pack Vacuum Generator contains many of the same features as the standard VPF-57-AC Series but includes a heavy duty rechargeable 12 volt DC battery, making it suitable for handling non-porous loads. It is commonly used for special applications where AC power is not readily available.

Features
Vacuum control module
A solid-state Vacuum Control Module combines all the required vacuum generator controls in one rugged unit. This controls all vacuum pump functions, safety lights and is fitted with a standard audible vacuum leakage warning system.
Energy saver technology
A vacuum-controlled switch shuts off the vacuum pump when the pre-set vacuum level is reached, reducing wear and tear on the pump.
Easy to replace battery
Battery can be easily removed for charging. We recommend purchasing a spare battery. Use one on the lifter, while charging the other for zero downtime.
Battery gauge
Gauge for battery charge level with hour meter.
Front mounted controls and digital gauges
Digital vacuum gauges are mounted on front cover for continuous monitoring by operator. The power switch includes built-in circuit breaker.
Indicator light
Amber light indicates “power on” for Vac-Pack vacuum generator.
Ergonomic adjustable front handlebar
Easy to grasp, large loop handlebar enables the operator to easily and safely maneuver the attached load without touching the load itself. Handlebar can be adjusted for smaller size loads.
Vacuum check valve and reservoir
A check valve with vacuum reservoir helps to maintain vacuum if electrical power is interrupted, for safe handling of non-porous loads.
Maintenance
New redesign featuring new vacuum pump
Updated for ease of inspection and replacement of key components, using quick disconnect and reusable fittings.
Easily accessible dual vacuum filters
(2) Hi capacity air filters provide protection against pump damage. They are mounted on the front handlebar for easy routine inspection and cleaning.
