The difference

The answer decides the machine.

Dust in the air needs a large airflow at the capture point. Dust on surfaces needs a high vacuum.

A vacuum cleaner built for surfaces does not remove dust that hangs in the air. The answer also decides the hose.

Hoses
From our work

An example: the weighing station.

Bags are filled by hand at a scale, and dust hangs in the air around the weighing station.

The existing vacuum cleaner did not remove it, because it is built for dust on surfaces, not dust in the air.
