The Lightweight Underwater Vacuum System's powerful compact design puts the power of a crane-deployed 250 gallon per minute vacuum system in an easily deployed handheld system. The LUVS package provides flexibility not found in other systems. Operating on 230V single phase, the system can be used anywhere there is a ground fault interrupter.

The LUVS equipment features a six- speed reversible pump and retrieved objects are transferred from the Induction Nozzle filter to an inspection container by gently running the pump in reverse.
