The SpaceVac ATEX Pro 50mm system provides a standard maximum working height of up to 11.4m (37ft) from ground level. The system includes five 1.6m conductive carbon fibre poles and one 0.8m conductive half pole, providing an enclosed pole length of 10.4m (34ft).

Where additional reach is required, the system can be extended with additional poles, allowing operators to safely clean higher-level structures while remaining safely at ground level.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system is designed for use in hazardous environments where combustible dust accumulation presents a potential fire or explosion risk.

It is particularly suited to more demanding industrial applications where larger volumes of dust or debris need to be removed from elevated areas.

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

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

  • Roof beams and structural steelwork
  • Pipework
  • Ducting and extraction systems
  • Cable trays
  • Lighting gantries
  • Conveyor systems
  • Production equipment exteriors
  • Storage racking tops
  • Ceilings and overhead structures

The larger 50mm pole diameter helps improve airflow when cleaning at height, making it particularly effective for heavier dust accumulations and more demanding cleaning tasks.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system has a larger pole diameter, increased airflow capacity and greater working height compared to the 38mm version.

It was developed specifically for operators working in more demanding cleaning environments where larger volumes of dust, debris or material build-up need to be removed from elevated surfaces.

The wider diameter also helps maintain airflow over longer distances, supporting more efficient cleaning at extended heights.

The ATEX Pro 50mm poles are manufactured from 100% conductive carbon fibre using a standard modulus 3K 2×2 twill carbon construction.

This provides excellent strength, durability and rigidity while remaining lightweight enough for practical operation at extended working heights.

In combustible dust environments, controlling static electricity is an important part of reducing ignition risks.

The conductive carbon fibre construction helps dissipate static charges safely through the cleaning system during operation, supporting safe cleaning practices within hazardous environments.

At the same time, carbon fibre provides the strength and rigidity required to maintain operator control when cleaning at significant heights.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system includes a comprehensive range of conductive cleaning tools and accessories, including:

  • Conductive 15° cleaning head
  • Conductive 45° cleaning head
  • Conductive 90° cleaning head
  • Conductive 135° cleaning head
  • Heavy-duty flat surface tool
  • Conductive large round brush
  • Conductive gulper nozzle
  • Conductive rubber conical nozzle
  • Conductive hose and adaptors
  • Padded pole bag
  • Hose bag and mesh accessory bag

This allows operators to configure the system for a wide variety of cleaning challenges commonly found within hazardous industrial environments.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system should be paired with an appropriately certified industrial vacuum suitable for the hazardous area classification being cleaned.

SpaceVac commonly recommends compatible systems from the TITAN ATEX and Mercury ACD vacuum ranges, depending on the application, material being removed and ATEX zone requirements.

Yes.

Additional conductive poles can be added to increase the system’s reach where required. The ATEX Pro 50mm system can be extended by up to two additional poles, providing access to even greater cleaning heights while maintaining safe operation from ground level.

No.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system is designed to allow operators to carry out routine high-level cleaning safely from ground level, reducing reliance on ladders, scaffolding, mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs) and other access equipment.

This can help reduce disruption, improve cleaning efficiency and minimise working-at-height risks.

Yes.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system is widely used by industrial cleaning contractors, facilities management teams and specialist service providers operating within hazardous environments.

Its extended reach, larger airflow capacity and robust carbon fibre construction make it particularly suitable for demanding commercial and industrial cleaning applications.

The ATEX Pro 50mm system is designed for use in hazardous dust and gas environments when paired with appropriately certified vacuum 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.

Each ATEX Pro 50mm cleaning pole weighs approximately 390 grams.

Despite the increased diameter and enhanced rigidity, the lightweight carbon fibre construction helps reduce operator fatigue during extended cleaning tasks while maintaining excellent control at height.

The 50mm system is typically chosen by operators working in larger facilities, at greater heights or in environments where heavier dust accumulations are common.

Its wider pole diameter allows for increased airflow, making it particularly effective when removing heavier materials such as sawdust, wood shavings, grain dust and other industrial debris from elevated surfaces.

For operators requiring maximum reach and performance within hazardous environments, the ATEX Pro 50mm is often the preferred solution.
