Tiger-Vac 4D-55L EX DT HD (MFS) (EU)
The Tiger-Vac 4D-55L EX DT HD (MFS) (EU) is the largest single-phase MFS variant in the 4D series -- a 55 L AISI 430 detachable tank mounted on a Heavy Duty 4-wheel cart with tool basket and static dissipative wheels. Marked II 3D Ex h tc IIIB T200 C Dc IP6X, EN 17348 DT. Dual bypass dual-speed Ametek heavy-duty motors deliver 2100 W (2400 W max) and 375 m3/h at 2180 mmH2O. 5 HEPA H14 filters (2 upstream, 3 downstream) individually factory-tested and aerosol leak-tested. The Manual Filter Shaker (MFS) shakes the PTFE-laminated SD main filter clean before tank emptying. Conductive poly-liner recovery bag included for safe disposal of the recovered material. Filter blockage indicator light warns when the tank is full.

Questions and answers
What does "4D" stand for in the model name?
4D is Tiger-Vac's model designation for the dual-motor single-phase platform -- not a reference to four dimensions or four venturis. The entire 4D series shares the same Carriage with Suspended Motor Top (CSMT) construction where the two bypass motors hang from a common frame design above the tank platform itself. It is an industry-standard solution at Tiger-Vac for high-flow single-phase ATEX models.
Why IIIB and not IIIC?
IIIB means "non-conductive dust" (dust group B) and covers organic and insulating dust like wood dust, textile fibres, sugar, flour and polymer powder. IIIC covers conductive dust (metal, coal, graphite) where the ignition energy is lower and requires stricter construction. The Tiger-Vac 4D series is certified for IIIB; for IIIC dust (metal powder from 3D printing, coal dust, graphite) the C series (II 1/3D IIIC) or CD series (Z22 IIIC) must be used. If you are unsure of your dust group, contact us -- we will do a dust assessment together with you.
What is Dust Ignition Protection "t"?
"t" (tightness) is a protection method per EN 60079-31 where the entire motor enclosure is tight (IP6X) so fine dust cannot penetrate into the electrical parts. Combined with limitation of the surface temperature (T200 C), this ensures the unit cannot ignite dust in Zone 22 -- even if a layer of dust settles on top of the enclosure. It is the most robust construction method for industrial ATEX vacuums.
What is the difference between 4D-35L and 4D-55L?
Drive specs are identical (375 m3/h, 2180 mmH2O, 2100 W, 5 HEPA H14). The difference is tank size: 4D-35L has a 35 L tank and 4D-55L has a 55 L tank. The 4D-55L platform is also somewhat wider (98 cm vs 60 cm) and more robust for continuous operation. Choose the 4D-35L for standard housekeeping; choose the 4D-55L if collection volume is high or frequent emptying must be avoided.
Why is the sound level not listed?
Tiger-Vac's 4D brochure does not state the sound level in its specifications table. Dual-motor bypass constructions typically run at 78-84 dB(A) at full load, but the exact value depends on motor balance, hose length and room size. Contact us for a measured value for a specific installation if it is critical for the occupational health assessment.
