Technical Information

The SpaceVac Protex system provides a standard working height of up to 8.2m / 27ft from ground level. For applications requiring additional reach, extra poles can be added to extend the system to working heights of up to 11.4m (37.4ft), allowing operators to clean safely while remaining on the ground.

The PROTEX system has been specifically developed for high-level cleaning in environments where overhead electrical hazards may be present. Its non-conductive pole construction helps reduce the risks associated with working near overhead power lines, electrical infrastructure and other energised equipment.

The system is designed for removing dust, cobwebs and light debris from elevated surfaces, including:
Roof beams and structural steelwork

  • Lighting
  • Pipework
  • Cable trays
  • Overhead ledges
  • High-level walls
  • Warehouse racking
  • External building features

The system includes a specialist cleaning head and spike tool for a range of high-level cleaning applications.

Unlike conventional carbon fibre cleaning poles, the PROTEX system is manufactured from a non-conductive glass composite material. It has been independently tested by the University of Manchester and is rated to withstand voltages of up to 25,000V, making it suitable for applications where electrical contact is an identified risk.

No. The PROTEX poles are manufactured from pre-impregnated glass composite material that is non-conductive throughout their entire length. This means operators are never holding a conductive pole when working near electrical hazards.

Yes. The PROTEX system has been independently tested by the University of Manchester and is rated to withstand voltages of up to 25,000V, providing additional confidence when working in environments where electrical hazards are present.

The PROTEX system is compatible with the SpaceVac Hurricane external vacuum range, providing the airflow and suction performance required for effective high-level cleaning.

Yes. Additional poles can be purchased separately to increase the system’s working height to approximately 10.1m (33.1ft). Additional tools and accessories are also available to suit different cleaning applications.

No. The PROTEX system has been designed to enable operators to carry out many high-level cleaning tasks safely from ground level, reducing the need for ladders, scaffolding and MEWPs.

SpaceVac systems are engineered specifically for professional high-level cleaning. Pole rigidity, strength and operator control become increasingly important when working at height, helping reduce flex while improving accuracy, efficiency and user comfort.

Yes. The PROTEX system is widely used by specialist cleaning contractors, facilities management companies and industrial maintenance teams carrying out high-level cleaning where electrical safety is a key consideration.

The PROTEX system has been specifically developed for environments where overhead electrical hazards are present. However, operators should always carry out a site-specific risk assessment and follow local safety procedures and minimum approach distances when working near live electrical infrastructure. The system is designed to reduce risk, not eliminate it.
