Big Brute Biomass Interceptor

£1,030.00£2,476.00 + VAT

Cleaning ash from biomass boilers has never been easier with the Big Brute Biomass Interceptor system. This setup pairs your existing Big Brute and your own non-combustible metal drum with a heat-resistant metal hose, capable of handling temperatures up to 400°C to manage “hot spots” without damage, and a Big Brute Interceptor Lid. The Interceptor Lid prevents ash and hot embers from being carried over into the Big Brute, protecting both the suction hose and the vacuum itself, while thermal cut-outs on each motor provide an additional layer of safety.

Perfect for commercial biomass systems, this system minimises mess and reduces risks from hot ash and embers.

The package includes a Big Brute Cyclone Interceptor Lid, a heat-resistant metal suction hose in a choice of lengths, and optional extras like a scraper tool for stubborn ash. All you need is your own Big Brute and your own metal collection drum to get started. Keep your biomass boiler clean and running smoothly with this smart, mess-free solution.

Metal Suction Hose Length

Our specialised metal suction hose connects up to the inlet port on the Interceptor Lid. Attach an optional V37 Scraper Tool to clean ash from the biomass boiler.

The heat-resistant metal hose is capable of withstanding temperatures up to 400°C  in case you encounter stubborn “hot spots” while cleaning up the ash.

Note we recommend sucking up ash that has completely cooled and has been raked over thoroughly to avoid such hot spots as the metal hose can still suffer damage if hot material get stuck in the hose for a prolonged period.

Interceptor Type
Big Brute Cyclone Interceptor

Standard Cyclone Interceptor

The Standard Cyclone Interceptor is designed to fit our standard Big Brute drums. We can't guarantee they fit other drums.

If in doubt as to the origin of your collecting drum, we recommend going for the Fit All Cyclone Interceptor option.

Fit-All Cyclone Interceptor

The Fit All Cyclone Interceptor will fit most drums with outside diameter between 320 to 680mm.

V37 Scraper Tool

The Scraper Tool Handle avoids the need to hold the metal Scraper Tool or hose with your hands while sucking up ash.

Cleaning the ash out of a biomass boiler is quick, easy and mess-free with the Big Brute Biomass Interceptor system.

Our recommended setup uses your existing Big Brute to suck up ash into a non-combustible drum with a metal hose (rated up to 400°C) that will withstand heat if you find a “hot spot”.

The Cyclone Interceptor Lid captures dust and drops it into the drum – this reduces the amount of dust carried over into the Big Brute. This also reduces the risk of hot embers being carried over to the Big Brute, protecting the standard suction hose linking your Interceptor to the Big Brute, and the Big Brute itself.

Further, the Big Brute has built-in thermal cut-outs on each motor. Should hot ash or warm air be picked up for a prolonged period, this will activate the thermal cut-outs and cut the power to the Big Brute, allowing you to investigate and leave the machine to cool down.

WHAT’S IT BEST FOR?

Ideal for cleaning ash from commercial biomass systems, whilst minimising the risk from hot embers and ash to your Big Brute.

WHAT SHOULD IT NOT BE USED FOR?

We always recommend leaving the ash to cool completely before handling it. Thoroughly rake it over several times to ensure that the ash is cooled completely and thoroughly before removing it from your biomass boiler.
