Extraction system

The kit lets you connect the RUPES Skorpio E RX256 directly to the S245EL vacuum to capture dust as close as possible to where it is generated during sanding.

• Antistatic hose: Ø 29 mm and 5 m long.
• Extraction at source: removes dust produced by the sander during operation.
• Multi-hole backing pad: helps dust pass through to the extraction system when used with compatible abrasives.
• Automatic filter cleaning: helps maintain extraction performance during long sanding operations.
• 5 bags included: collect extracted dust and make vacuum maintenance easier.

Benefits

• Complete solution: the sander, vacuum, 5 m hose, and dust bags are combined in one kit to create a professional sanding station.
• Dust extraction at source: the RX256 can be connected directly to the S245EL to limit dust dispersion while sanding.
• 6 mm orbit: offers an excellent balance between material removal and finish quality for automotive bodywork preparation.
• 150 mm backing pad: a size particularly suited to routine sanding of automotive body panels.
• Brushless motor: the RX256 features a high-performance electric motor suited to regular professional use.
• Lightweight sander: weighing approximately 1.2 kg, the Skorpio E makes long sanding sessions easier and helps reduce operator fatigue.
• Adjustable speed: the 4,000 to 10,000 rpm range lets you adapt the sander to the substrate, abrasive, and task at hand.
• High extraction capacity: the S245EL's 45 L tank is suitable for professional workshop use.
• Automatic filter cleaning: limits filter clogging and helps maintain suction performance during work.
• Work comfort: extraction directly at the sander helps reduce the amount of dust around the preparation area.
• Mobility: the 5 m hose offers good freedom of movement around the vehicle during sanding.

Recommended applications

• Sanding polyester fillers.
• Rough sanding and leveling surfaces.
• Sanding and preparing primers.
• Preparing auto body panels before painting.
• Removing old coatings and surface defects according to the abrasive used.
• Sanding flat and slightly curved surfaces.
• Capturing dust at the source during sanding.
• Setting up a mobile sanding and dust extraction station in an auto body shop.

Application and tips

• Connect the RUPES Skorpio E RX256 sander to the 5 m antistatic hose connected to the S245EL vacuum cleaner to capture dust directly during sanding.
• Use 150 mm abrasive discs suitable for the multi-hole backing pad and extraction system.
• Choose the abrasive grit according to the preparation stage and the substrate being worked on.
• Adjust the sander speed between 4,000 and 10,000 rpm according to the abrasive and the desired material removal rate.
• Keep the backing pad as parallel to the surface as possible and avoid applying excessive pressure to the sander.
• Use steady, crosswise movements to achieve an even sanding finish.
• Make sure the extraction hose is not pinched or blocked during work.
• Regularly check the condition of the abrasive disc, backing pad, hose, and filtration system.
• Check the dust bag's fill level and replace it when necessary to maintain suction performance.
