R01
Compact. Customizable. Consistently industrial.
The R01 is the mobile industrial vacuum for processes that tolerate no compromises – built to a standardized design, customized to your needs, and consistently reliable.
The R01 is a versatile industrial vacuum designed for industrial extraction in production, workshops, and service environments. With its robust construction and modular design, it adapts to new requirements as they arise. Performance, filtration, and waste disposal can be flexibly configured. Ideal for companies seeking a reliable, cost-effective, and long-term standard solution.
The highlights.
Individuality in series production
One system. Many solutions. The R01 is not a fixed-configuration device, but a modular system. The drive, filter, waste disposal, and safety features are combined from clearly defined modules—tailored precisely to your requirements. This turns series production into a tailor-made solution: configurable during design, adaptable during operation, and expandable as processes change. Instead of purchasing new equipment when new requirements arise, key components can be retrofitted or supplemented. This ensures the R01 remains viable in the long term—both technically and economically.
Up to 12 modules: clearly structured and technically coordinated
Over 1,000 components: for various materials, dust classes, and applications
Over 30 million configuration options: no custom designs, no system breaks
For applications where safety is non-negotiable. ATEX-compliant design variants for dust and gas hazardous areas, spark-proof construction, and conductive components—all integrated into a modular system that can be adapted to changing requirements. Safety thus becomes part of the standard, not an afterthought.

Built for your application.
The R01 series is the global standard for industrial extraction—used wherever processes must run cleanly, safely, and efficiently. Whether in additive manufacturing, the automotive sector, on construction sites, or in workshops. In the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries. In agriculture, plastics or metal processing, and in surface technology. Flexibly adaptable to any challenge.
In a microbrewery, our explosion-proof industrial vacuum ensures clean air—right at the shaking sieve, where malt dust is generated during milling. Fully automatic. Space-saving installation. And versatile: With a single motion, the stationary extraction system transforms into a mobile vacuum for cleaning floors and machinery. For greater safety, hygiene—and more space for what really matters.
A powerful industrial vacuum reliably collects metal dust, whether from the floor or directly at the machine. A variety of brushes and nozzles ensure maximum flexibility. The accessories and hose are always within easy reach, and the wheeled dust bin makes emptying a breeze. For clean results—in every corner of the workshop.
Frequent color changes, large amounts of residual powder—no problem. A mobile vacuum system collects excess powder coating directly from the production line and the floor. The collected material passes through M and H class filters and falls by gravity into a big bag—cleanly separated, ready for recycling. Despite its compact design, the chassis provides space for large big bags and separate drive and silo units. For smooth processes—paint change after paint change.
When manually cutting and soldering SMD circuit boards, an industrial vacuum integrated into the process provides reliable protection against particles, fumes, and harmful substances—right at the cutting station. Designed for continuous operation, easy to maintain, and quiet at 62 dBA. This keeps the air clean.
Large storage areas require endurance—and freedom of movement. Where corded vacuums reach their limits, a solution powered by a forklift battery provides up to 7 hours of uninterrupted, hands-free operation. The vacuum is mounted directly on the customer’s rack and connected to the existing battery. For maximum flexibility—no power outlet required.
Wireless freedom.
The R01 D makes no compromises. Powered by a high-performance 48-volt lithium-ion battery, it operates for up to 120 minutes—cordless, durable, and safe. The battery is easy to replace, and the charger ensures quick, gentle charging cycles. Ideal for continuous industrial use—even when vacuuming flammable dust.
Operating Time
Thinking ahead.
At RUWAC, it all starts with a simple question: What do you really need?
Whether it’s a standard model, a modular design, or a custom-built solution—we don’t build for the average, but for specific applications. For your processes. Your requirements. Your safety. We make what’s technically feasible a reality. And what doesn’t exist yet, we develop—together with you.
Because when it comes to industrial extraction, we never settle for standard solutions. Only the best will do.
Strong in the details.
RUWAC industrial vacuum cleaners aren’t just made of high-quality components—they’re built on well-thought-out solutions. From the housing to the filtration technology, every detail is designed for durability, safety, and efficiency. For everyone who relies on reliable technology every day.
Strong. Lightweight. Conductive.
An enclosure that does more: extremely durable, surprisingly lightweight—and electrically conductive. The glass-fiber-reinforced plastic offers maximum stability, protects against corrosion, and ensures greater safety thanks to its intelligent material composition. It reliably dissipates electrical charges—for safe operation in everyday use and in potentially explosive atmospheres. For demanding industrial environments. And for everyone who expects more.
Intelligently filtered. Ideal for any application.
Our filter technology is designed for everyday industrial use—robust, precise, and customizable. For all dust classes. For a wide variety of materials. And for housings in a wide range of designs. The filters are developed in collaboration with premium manufacturers in Germany—high-performance, durable, and tailored to your application. Residual dust filters in various classes complement the system where maximum retention is required. Cleaning is performed manually, electrically, or with compressed air—efficient, ergonomic, and designed for maximum effectiveness. For systems that run longer. Workplaces that stay clean. And people who work with them every day.
It’s never been this easy to do something difficult.
Our patented foot-operated release mechanism makes emptying the container noticeably easier. With just one step, the container lowers—minimizing dust, requiring no effort, and allowing for uninterrupted operation. This protects your health, reduces dust exposure, and is easy on your back. For everyone who works with dust every day—and prioritizes ergonomics and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The R01 is designed for dry dust, chips, and residues from a wide variety of materials. Depending on the configuration, it is suitable for dust from wood, metal, plastic, minerals, or powder coatings, among other materials. Dust-EX and H-filter design variants are available for flammable or hazardous dust. It is not the unit alone that matters, but rather the right configuration for the material you are vacuuming.
The R01 is not sold as a standard off-the-shelf product, but is assembled from modules. The drive, filtration technology, collection tank, and disposal system are tailored to your specific application. This ensures a custom-fit solution—and allows for future adjustments if requirements change, without having to replace the entire unit.
Yes, the R01 is available as an optional dust-proof or gas-proof design variant and can be designed in accordance with ATEX directives for zones 1, 2, 21, and 22. The specific design variant required depends on the process, the material being vacuumed, and the location of use. The safe design is always tailored to the specific application.
The R01 is designed for continuous industrial operation. Large filter surfaces, optimized cleaning systems, and robust components ensure long maintenance intervals. The actual filter service life depends heavily on the material, dust volume, and duration of use. Maintenance and filter replacement are designed to be performed quickly, safely, and ergonomically.
The R01 is a standard vacuum cleaner—but designed with flexibility in mind. Its modular system can accommodate a wide range of applications. When processes are particularly demanding or deviate from standard procedures, the R01 can be customized or used as the basis for a more advanced custom solution. In such cases, it is worth consulting directly with us.
