There does not appear to be a scientific term to specifically describe a fear of vacuums. Perhaps the fear stems from the loud noise the equipment makes or anxiety that you might lose something valuable while you operate it, a dropped wedding ring for example. The suction capability of most vaccuums is not enough to cause serious injury, but it may be enough to cause you to worry.

Traumatophobia is the fear of injury.

Ligyrophobia is the fear of loud noises.

If your fear begins to negatively affect the quality of your life, or your happiness, then please consult with a doctor to help you to address your fear.
