Tennant VWD72 Wet and Dry Vacuum
Why Buy From Us
The V-WD-72 is built for situations where a mid-sized wet and dry vacuum isn't going to cut it. A 72-litre tank, three independent motors delivering a combined 3,600W, and a tipping trolley design that makes emptying a large tank practical rather than a two-person job — this is the machine for large facilities, industrial environments, and applications where anything smaller means constant interruptions.
V-WD-72 72-Litre Triple Motor Wet and Dry Vacuum — Commercial and Industrial Grade
At 23.4kg it's manageable for a single operator despite the capacity, and the 8.5m power cord gives enough reach to work across large areas without repositioning. The tipping trolley means emptying is a matter of wheeling to the disposal point and tipping — no lifting, no awkward draining, no needing a second person.
Three independent motors is a configuration worth understanding. It delivers 166.7 L/s airflow and 2,380mm water lift — serious extraction performance for heavy debris loads and substantial liquid volumes. The redundancy is also practically useful: if one motor develops a fault, the machine continues operating at reduced capacity while you arrange service rather than going down completely mid- job. A 15-amp plug is required for operation.
AP Tube Construction
The hose uses an aluminium and recycled plastic composite construction — the aluminium inner layer reduces air friction for better suction performance and minimises weight, while the plastic outer provides anti-slip grip, thermal protection, and corrosion resistance. The two-piece design connects firmly during use and separates easily with a turn for storage. Practical engineering that holds up through years of demanding use.
SANIFILTER Antibacterial Protection
The filter uses silver ion (Ag+) antibacterial treatment — certified to JIS L 1902:2008 International Standard and verified effective against Staphylococcus Aureus and Klebsiella Pneumoniae. The treatment actively destroys bacteria, fungi, and viruses inside the filter and minimises re-emission of bacteria in exhaust air. Effectiveness is maintained through up to five washes at 40°C. For healthcare, food processing, and any environment where contamination control is a genuine requirement, this is independently verified protection rather than a marketing claim.
Practical Features
On-board tool holder keeps accessories organised and accessible. Integrated cable hook manages the 8.5m cord during storage and transport. The locking flexible hose stays connected during demanding work without needing constant readjustment. Despite the 72-litre capacity the footprint is compact enough for storage in facilities where space is a consideration.
Common Applications
Industrial facilities handling heavy debris, metal shavings, and substantial liquid spills. Large commercial properties, warehouses, and manufacturing environments where constant emptying interruptions affect productivity. Healthcare campuses and educational institutions where certified antibacterial filtration is a requirement. Property management operations covering large areas in single cleaning sessions.
If your application is lighter or less frequent, a smaller wet and dry vacuum will do the job at lower cost. The V-WD-72 earns its price point on high-frequency demanding use where capacity, power, and hygiene certification all matter.
