Greater energy efficiency, more cost-saving opportunities and EU regulations led Domel to develop the new Wet & Dry Vacuum motor.

Domel’s beyond state of the art Wet and Dry Brushed Vacuum Motors 457 have the highest efficiency on the market

The goal of the Domel team was to develop the motor with highest efficiency on the market, with a favourable cost to performance ratio.

The result of our own know-how is a compact and lightweight (600-700g) motor with all the characteristics of the previous, heavier models. The new generation of 457 Bypass Motor is designed and manufactured in the EU. Environmentally friendly, with a low CO2 footprint and over 50% efficiency with 30% less material compared to previous versions It presents a very cost efficient and reliable solution for many different applications, especially those where weight is very important, such as with aqua vacuum cleaners. This low voltage wet and dry vacuum motor is perfect for battery driven applications.

We are confident that you will be absolutely satisfied with its strong suction power. In the 457 Bypass Motor cooling air is separated from the working air pump, which creates a vacuum to suck up dirt, dust particles, harmful gas or granulate from any given surface or surroundings. A wide range voltage supply is available: 18 - 48V DC, 120V and 230V AC.

 

Motor type 457 is a Bypass Wet Motor which can be used in:

  • wet and dry vacuum cleaners,
  • scrubbers,
  • sweepers,
  • whirlpool baths,
  • machines for transport of pellets or granulates,
  • fume/smoke extraction devices.
