HZ 900
The Numatic HZ900 combines a 40-litre drum with a single-motor power head for controlled dry-dust collection. It is specified as Type H under IEC/EN 60335-2-69, with an H13 filter module classified to EN1822.
The machine is intended for suitable non-explosive material within an assessed working procedure. Its classification describes the specified complete machine and does not make every dust or working environment suitable.
H13 Filtration within the Complete H-Class System
The H13 module works alongside the required primary filter and compatible collection bag. Maintained seals and correctly assembled components support the filtration arrangement throughout the cleaning task.
The manufacturer’s machine and filter classifications have different scopes. Keep both in view when selecting equipment: an H13 filter alone does not give a general-purpose vacuum the HZ900’s Type H specification.
Collection Capacity and Mobile Steel Construction
The all-steel power head, robust container and large rear wheels provide a practical structure for professional use. The 40-litre drum supports larger collection tasks with an emptying schedule appropriate to the material.
The 10-metre cable gives working reach around the cleaning area. Plan transport and access around the listed 28kg machine weight, any collected load and the controlled handling procedure required at the site.

Ideal Applications
- Assessed indoor collection of suitable non-explosive hazardous dust.
- Specialist cleaning routes requiring the specified Type H system.
- Larger collection tasks with controlled handling and disposal.
- Professional use by trained and authorised personnel.
Directions for Use
- Confirm the task and operator requirements: Before use, a competent person should confirm that this machine and its filtration arrangement suit the dust, environment and working procedure. Operators must be trained and authorised for the task, including waste handling. Read the supplied Numatic manual and arrange the required protective equipment and controlled work area.
- Inspect and prepare the complete system: Check the machine identification, cable, hose, seals and accessories. Fit the specified bag and all required filters in their correct positions; do not operate with missing or damaged filtration components. Follow the model-specific preparation instructions and resolve defects before use. Select the bag for the material and duty involved.
- Collect only within the approved procedure: Use indoors for appropriate dry material, following the assessed method and operating instructions. Keep the cable clear and move the machine by its intended handle. Monitor the low-flow warning and stop to investigate it safely. Do not collect wet material, glowing debris or ignition hazards, or leave the machine running unattended.
- Arrange controlled emptying and servicing: Unplug before maintenance. Have trained, authorised personnel perform bag changes and contaminated-waste handling under the specified decontamination procedure. Follow Numatic's requirements for emptying after use, transit closure, inspection and filter testing. Do not open a contaminated machine as an ordinary household vacuum; keep it indoors and dry when stored.
FAQs
What does H-Class mean on this listing?
Numatic specifies the HZ900 as Type H under IEC/EN 60335-2-69. This identifies the machine's hazardous-dust classification, used within its approved applications. It does not remove the need to assess the substance, operating conditions, protective measures and disposal procedure before work begins.
Does it have HEPA H13 filtration?
Yes. The H13 filter module forms part of the HZ900's filtration system, alongside the required primary filter and bag. Keep the complete system correctly fitted and maintained. Replacing one component with an unsuitable alternative can compromise the intended arrangement.
How does HZ900 differ from HZD900?
HZ900 is the single-motor model; HZD900 is the twin-motor version. Both use a 40-litre drum, but their airflow and weight specifications differ. This page describes HZ900, so check the complete model designation when comparing machines or ordering replacement parts.
Can I use it for asbestos work?
Machine selection for asbestos work must form part of a specialist assessment and controlled working method. H-Class classification alone does not establish that a particular job can be undertaken safely. Obtain competent advice on the equipment, training, protective measures and applicable requirements before starting.
Can it collect liquids or explosive dust?
The HZ900 is a dry-use machine for appropriate non-explosive material. Do not use it for liquid recovery, wet cleaning or ignition hazards. Where a substance or environment requires a different protection specification, have a competent person select equipment suited to that task.
What maintenance and inspection does it need?
Follow the model-specific manual for routine checks, controlled cleaning and replacement of worn parts. Numatic calls for competent technical inspection and filtration-efficiency testing at least annually, with more frequent testing where required. Contaminated bags and filters need the specified handling and disposal arrangements.
