HOW TO WORK VIRTUALLY DUST-FREE WITH HILTI BREAKERS

When it comes to dust, size matters. While larger particles are filtered out by the mouth and nose, very fine dust can get into the airway and even to the farthest reaches of the lungs. The silica dust released when breaking concrete is particularly hazardous – excessive exposure can cause an incurable lung disease called silicosis.

Our DRS solutions are highly effective dust removal systems designed for indoor use. They can be used with all of our breakers, removing hazardous fine dust at source. The result: a virtually dustless jobsite.

All the system’s components are perfectly matched to maximize the amount of dust removed. The vacuum removal system is attached at the chuck and can be easily matched to the type of chisel being used.

We know you take health and safety seriously – it’s a commitment we share. That’s why we have spent many years researching dust removal and developing innovative solutions.

Dust regulations at national and supranational level are designed to protect employees from excessive exposure to harmful levels of dust concentration. Hilti DRS helps to ensure you comply with the applicable regulations in your country. More importantly, it helps keep you and your workers safe.
