The Tornado vacuums shown in the picture run from compressed air-BUT--the electric models are more efficient-you need like a 10hp on up compressor to run those.The electric ones run from a 15A 120V.Have one!!!Love it!!! | ||

Here are some pictures I saved from an old for-sale posting of a Breuer-Tornado machine -looks like it's missing the bag. The design says 30's-40's to me, but could be later. Looks powerful -and loud! Wish I could try one out. | ||
