SKU SVA38/EX-PIONEER

The SpaceVac ATEX Pioneer system provides a standard working height of up to 6.6m (21ft) from ground level. Additional poles can be added where required, allowing operators to safely clean elevated surfaces without the need for ladders or access equipment.

The ATEX Pioneer system is designed for hazardous environments where combustible dust accumulation presents a potential risk. It is ideal for facilities that require regular high-level cleaning of elevated structures while maintaining ATEX compliance.

Typical applications include food manufacturing facilities, pharmaceutical production environments, grain handling operations, chemical processing plants, powder handling facilities and other industrial workplaces operating within ATEX-classified areas.

The system is designed for the safe removal of combustible dust and debris from elevated surfaces including:

  • Ceilings
  • Pipework
  • Ducting
  • Ventilation systems
  • Overhead beams and structures
  • Production equipment exteriors
  • Cable trays
  • Wall surfaces
  • Other areas where combustible dust can accumulate above head height

The kit includes a range of conductive cleaning heads and specialist tools to suit different cleaning challenges.

The ATEX Pioneer offers increased reach, larger diameter poles and enhanced rigidity compared to the ATEX Lite system. This makes it particularly suitable for facilities requiring more frequent high-level cleaning or access to greater working heights while maintaining operator control and ease of use.

The ATEX Pioneer poles are manufactured from 100% conductive carbon fibre. This provides excellent strength, durability and rigidity while allowing static charges to dissipate safely during operation.

In combustible dust environments, controlling static electricity is essential. The conductive carbon fibre construction allows static charges to dissipate safely through the cleaning system, helping support safe cleaning practices in hazardous areas while maintaining lightweight handling characteristics.

The ATEX Pioneer system should be used with an appropriately certified industrial vacuum suitable for the hazardous area classification. SpaceVac commonly recommends compatible systems from the TITAN ATEX and Mercury ACD ranges.

Yes. Additional conductive poles can be added to increase the system’s reach, allowing operators to safely clean higher-level areas while remaining at ground level.

No. The ATEX Pioneer system is designed to allow operators to carry out high-level cleaning safely from ground level, reducing reliance on ladders, scaffolding and other access equipment for routine cleaning tasks.

Yes. The ATEX Pioneer is widely used by facilities maintenance teams, industrial cleaning contractors and specialist service providers working in hazardous environments. Its increased reach and robust construction make it particularly suitable for regular commercial and industrial cleaning operations.

The ATEX Pioneer system is designed for use in hazardous dust and gas environments when paired with appropriately certified equipment. SpaceVac provides solutions suitable for ATEX gas Zones 0, 1 and 2 and dust Zones 20, 21 and 22, helping operators safely remove combustible dust from elevated surfaces while remaining safely at ground level.
