The worldwide patented Magnetic Grabber® is the ultimate solution for vehicle exhaust removal in fire stations. It provides a very quick, easy and controlled connection and disconnection to a vehicle exhaust system.
The worldwide patented Magnetic Grabber® is the most innovative and reliable vehicle exhaust removal device that provides very quick, easy and controlled connection and disconnection to a vehicle’s exhaust system. This nozzle is used mainly in areas where the vehicle is moving through an enclosed space, like fire stations.
The conical 'click and seal'-design makes attaching the Magnetic Grabber® to the vehicle extremely user friendly. At the sound of a clear “click” you know you have a correctly “sealed” connection of the system to the vehicle, minimizing the danger of diesel exhaust emissions in the station. The strategically positioned magnets ensure a good connection to the vehicle, as well as a controlled automatic disconnect when the vehicle exits the station.
The Magnetic Grabber® won the red dot product design award 2011. The red dot design award dates back to 1955 and is the world’s largest and most distinguished design competition.
The Magnetic Grabber® is available in two variants, both sharing such striking similarities that they could easily be mistaken for identical twins. Nonetheless, the primary distinction lies in the alloy utilized.
The all stainless steel1 Plymovent Magnetic Grabber® TopGrade is the most durable Magnetic Grabber® that is resilient to the most extreme and aggressive winter road treatment chemicals. Due to the very special blend of stainless steel alloy, it will increase the system life and therefore reduce the total cost of ownership. The weight difference of the Magnetic Grabber® TopGrade compared to the regular Magnetic Grabber® is negligible.
Advantages of the Magnetic Grabber® TopGrade assembly:
1All nuts and bolts are stainless steel, too. But you'll understand the rubber and magnets are made of just that.
The regular Magnetic Grabber® is made mainly out of galvanised steel. This is the more economic material and performs perfectly in most outdoor conditions.
The tailpipe adapter is the other half of the 'click and seal' connection. To attach the Magnetic Grabber® nozzle with the extraction hose to the tailpipe, the adapter is connected to tailpipe of the fire truck. Due to their conical designs, the nozzle aligns itself with the tailpipe. The integrated magnets provide a quick and easy 'click and seal' connection, as well as a controlled disconnect.
It also enables the fire truck to attach to any Magnetic Grabber® system of neighboring stations. If the neighboring station has a pneumatic system, no worries! Just attach the Bayonet Quick Lock.
The Magnetic Grabber® can be connected to the product range of fans and control equipment of Plymovent. A Plymovent system enables you to get fully automatic control of your products in the most efficient way, saving you money and bringing you clean air at work.
The Magnetic Grabber® can be attached to a combination of the following products:
Exhaust hoses:
Fixed extractors:
Hose reels:

Below you will find various installations of this product at our customers.
The previous system had design flaws, and would not release, causing the product to be damaged and unusable. It was causing more damage than good to both the firefighters and the station.
The Magnetic Grabber® was installed to an existing SBT Pneumatic system in order to avoid unnecessary additional costs.
Prior to Plymovent, another manufacturer’s hose-based exhaust removal system was installed. Some issues with the system included faulty installation, poor service, inadequate system performance and safety concerns.
Take a look at these options!
The Internal Grabber® nozzle of Plymovent is a new, universal nozzle that fits the shapes and positions of any car and pickup truck exhaust tailpipes. This patented nozzle makes other nozzles obsolete.
The Truck Side Adapter (TSA) is a vehicle exhaust removal nozzle suitable for EURO 6 tailpipe configurations. With the complementary docking station the magnetic handle can be connected to any surface.
The Bayonet Quick Lock enables fire and emergency vehicles with the Plymovent Magnetic Grabber® Tailpipe Adapter to be compatible with the Plymovent Pneumatic Grabber® or similar nozzles.
The Test Facility Nozzle (TFN) is a vehicle exhaust removal device, suited for touchless extraction of vehicles. The TFN is the ideal nozzle for emission testing.
The Truck Extraction Nozzle is an adjustable nozzle which can connect to tailpipes that are hard to reach and/or have an irregular shape. The TEN facilitates European standard EURO 6 and American EPA 07 tailpipes.
The MEN is designed to cover an exhaust gas temperature in a range up to 550°F (300°C) continuous or up to 1200°F (650°C) intermittent. Recommended for engine testing and natural gas engine service facilities.
The REC nozzle is equipped with an inner spring clip in order to strengthen the connection with the exhaust pipe. It includes a CO outlet and is recommended for use on cars and motorcycles.
The REN nozzle is designed to slip over the exhaust pipe and stay connected by friction seal. It includes a CO outlet and is recommended for use on cars and motorcycles.
The AU exhaust nozzles are designed to capture the exhaust flow at the source without interfering with the airflow. Used for car workshops and maintenance facilities.
