Convenient fume extraction for petrol powered concrete saws
Airborne dust is a persistent safety and compliance challenge in construction, infrastructure, and industrial maintenance. It affects air quality, breaches exposure limits, and can lead to costly non-compliance. When concrete cutting, grinding, or drilling is required, especially in locations without stable power access, a portable, high-capacity vacuum system becomes essential.
Guarda’s vacuum generator offers a practical solution. Powered by a 4-stroke petrol motor it functions as a portable vacuum power source for dust extraction systems on active job sites. This system delivers reliable suction performance without requiring electricity, making it suitable for remote locations, and areas with no convenient electrical power supply.
The vacuum generator connects directly to the Edge Power Cutter Masonry Saw and delivers instant vacuum capacity through standard hose fittings. It removes dust from the air at the point of generation.
This setup is ideal for concrete cutting dust control, especially on sites where power supply is limited, unavailable or restricted due to safety policies. The vacuum generator eliminates the need for a diesel generator helping crews stay focused on operational output without compromising on control or compliance.
Unlike electric systems, the Guarda vacuum generator operates as a petrol-powered vacuum. It generates sustained vacuum that effectively captures dust before it becomes airborne. This suits environments where dust accumulation poses a hazard to respiratory health.
The vacuum generator is a preferred method of mobile dust control in commercial and industrial construction sectors. It eliminates the need for diesel generators and requires no complex set up.
This vacuum generator is designed for deployment in areas where electrical power supply is non-existent or inconvenient. It performs reliably under conditions where electricity is unavailable or restricted. Applications include concrete cutting, trenching, regional infrastructure upgrades and high-traffic zones requiring constant dust control.
Where mobility and reliability are critical, this compact vacuum generator is increasingly adopted. This unit delivers performance comparable to an electric vacuum without the need for an electrical connection. It enables teams to maintain consistent work flows even in hard-to-access areas.
The vacuum generator offers very high suction capacities within a compact format. Designed for industrial performance, it reaches a maximum suction rate suitable for continuous concrete cutting, chasing, drilling and grinding.
Unlike small portable electric vacs, the vacuum generator has a longer duty cycle. It helps reduce dust accumulation at the source, improve tool efficiency, and contribute to cleaner, safer site conditions.
The design ensures low maintenance and consistent output across extended shifts, even in heavy-duty use environments.
The vacuum generator was developed specifically to work with handheld power cutters and cut-off saws, and specifically the Edge Power Cutter. Connected via standard hose fittings, it captures dust and slurry at the source as it is generated.
This reduces the risk of tool wear from dust ingress, and supports operator safety. Because the generator is compact and easy to connect and set up, it reduces complexity to the user’s tool setup. When used correctly, this system supports concrete cutting dust control with no compromise on mobility or cutting performance.
Guarda Systems has been designing and supplying dust control and suppression technology for over a decade. Our vacuum generators have been utilised in many different masonry cutting applications where consistent, electric power-independent extraction is required.
The unit has been reviewed by safety officers and field-tested by contractors working across many different environments. Its design reflects over ten years of collaboration with operators, site supervisors, and compliance specialists.
We continue to refine our systems with ongoing feedback from industry professionals. Every element is engineered for real-world performance and in line with safety expectations. If you require detailed specs, compatibility notes, or compliance documentation, we’re available to assist.
If you require a portable vacuum solution for a dust-critical site, our team can provide implementation guidance. We assist with equipment selection, tool compatibility checks, and deployment recommendations tailored to your environment.
