Alpha® ECOVAKIT — Vacuum Adapter Kit for Ecoguard D
The Alpha® ECOVAKIT is the vacuum adapter kit that converts the Ecoguard Type D dust-collection cover (DL or DS) from a passive debris catcher into a continuous, vacuum-extracted dust system. It connects the Ecoguard D housing to a standard wet/dry vacuum hose so concrete, masonry and wood dust is pulled directly off the bit during overhead and wall drilling — eliminating the need to stop and empty the chamber.
Features
- Converts the Ecoguard D (DL or DS) to active vacuum dust extraction
- Connects directly to standard wet/dry vacuum hoses
- Eliminates manual debris emptying during long drilling runs
- Lightweight, compact — under 1/4 lb packaged
- Compatible with both Ecoguard D Short (ECOGRDDS) and Long (ECOGRDDL)
- Ideal for overhead, wall and structural anchor drilling
- Helps meet OSHA silica dust-control practices when paired with a HEPA vacuum

- Install the Ecoguard D (DL or DS) onto your hammer drill per its manual.
- Snap the ECOVAKIT adapter into the debris-chamber outlet on the Ecoguard D housing.
- Connect the adapter to a standard wet/dry vacuum hose — a HEPA vacuum is recommended for silica control.
- Turn on the vacuum first, then drill normally; dust is extracted continuously at the bit.
- For overhead work, keep the vacuum running throughout the run — no need to stop and empty.
- After use, disconnect the hose; the adapter stays mounted on the Ecoguard D for the next job.

What does the ECOVAKIT do?
It adapts the Ecoguard D (Long or Short) dust-collection cover so it can connect to a wet/dry vacuum hose — turning the passive debris chamber into an active, continuous dust-extraction system.
Is the Ecoguard D included with the ECOVAKIT?
No. The ECOVAKIT is an adapter kit only; you need an Ecoguard D Long (ECOGRDDL) or Short (ECOGRDDS) cover separately.
Which vacuums work with the ECOVAKIT?
Standard wet/dry vacuums with a typical 1-1/4" hose. A HEPA-rated wet/dry vacuum is recommended for crystalline-silica dust control.
Will it work with the Ecoguard CD (core drilling cover)?
No. The ECOVAKIT is sized for the Ecoguard D housing. The Ecoguard CD already connects to a vacuum hose directly.
Does the ECOVAKIT help with OSHA silica compliance?
When paired with a HEPA wet/dry vacuum, the Ecoguard D + ECOVAKIT combination supports OSHA Table 1 dust-control practices for drilling in concrete and masonry. Always verify your final setup against the current OSHA standard.
