Depureco ECOBULL T ACD
- Powder-coating installations with continuous shift operation
- Cyclone collection behind large spray booths
- Wood mill and biomass handling with moderate air volume
- Smaller 3D-printing serial production at higher volume
- Electrode production for li-ion cells
- IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA (ACD)
- Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU
- EMC Directive 2014/30/EU
Depureco ECOBULL T ACD
The Depureco ECOBULL T ACD is the most versatile side-channel in the ECOBULL range: three-phase 400 V, 3 kW, 65 L container and 340 m3/h airflow at 230 mbar vacuum -- enough to run continuously through an 8-hour shift on a powder-coating line or at a fixed machine station. It is built for the operation that has three-phase power brought out and combustible dust in medium quantities, but doesn't need the PUMA production-line footprint.
Applications
- Powder-coating installations with continuous shift operation
- Cyclone collection behind large spray booths
- Wood mill and biomass handling with moderate air volume
- Smaller 3D-printing serial production at higher volume
- Electrode production for li-ion cells

Questions and answers
Why is the Depureco ECOBULL T ACD a better choice than a standard industrial vacuum?
Because a side-channel blower, unlike a bypass motor, can run 8 hours in a row without thermal overload. The Depureco ECOBULL T ACD delivers 340 m3/h at 230 mbar continuously, and the ACD-certified construction per IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA keeps the internal Zone 20 capacity intact even under prolonged duty. A standard industrial vacuum would overload the motor within hours in the same environment.
Why this specific motor and phase configuration?
Side-channel blowers are the only motor technology that can run continuously for hours without overheating. The ECOBULL range delivers this capacity in a mobile format, unlike the stationary dust collectors normally used for the same task. Model-specific variations (1-phase on ECOBULL M, 3-phase on T/PLUS, different motor sizes) cover needs from small workshops up to mid-size production lines.
What types of dust is the Depureco ECOBULL T ACD actually intended for?
Continuous process dust in mid-capacity: powder-coating surplus, fine swarf from CNC stations, wood-mill and biomass dust, fine flour dust in food production. The Depureco ECOBULL T ACD is built to run long shifts without the motor needing rest, which is the critical difference to the bypass-based MTL and MINIBULL ranges.
What is the difference between ACD and ATEX?
ACD is the IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA certification for combustible dust in non-ATEX-classified areas. Many powder-coating installations and mid-size production environments are not formally ATEX-classified because the dust concentration does not reach the classification threshold -- but the dust itself can ignite, and ACD equipment must be used. ATEX is for formally classified zones per Directive 2014/34/EU.
Which filter is fitted as standard, and can I upgrade to HEPA?
The standard is an antistatic polyester star filter class M at 24000 cm2 with integrated relief valve. The option is HEPA H14 at 24,000 cm2 for class H. Both filters have full antistatic construction, preserving the internal Zone 20 capacity regardless of filter choice.
How mobile or stationary is it in practice?
The Depureco ECOBULL T ACD weighs 88 kg and measures 660 x 800 x 1530 mm -- a semi-stationary mid-range collector that is moved on wheels between production setups but is not as compact as a 1-phase bypass model. Noise level is 72 dB(A) at 1 metre, suited to continuous duty in a production hall.
