Negative Pressure Collector: no dust spewing out onto your shop floor.
Clean Air Fan: protects the fan from abrasive/ impact damage and reduces energy costs.
Automatic Filter Cleaning: its powerful shaker motor and frame clean all the filters after every use.

Technical Data:
Construction:
- Powder-coated, laser cut, 3mm thick galvanized steel sheet carcass
- Fully welded, hot-dipped galvanized steel legs, from 5mm angle iron
- One adjustable leg, 250mm range of adjustment
- Fully sealed and assembled using stainless steel fittings
Filters:
- 8 washable, spun-bond polyester cartridge filters, encased in rugged perforated metal cylinders to ensure effective vibration transfer to the entire filter and to protect the filter from impact damage.
- 323mm Ø x 850mm long, with 99.5% filtration efficiency at 1 micron. Total filter surface area = 68 m2
- 10mm separation between pleats for optimal dust release during cleaning cycle.
- PTFE filters also available
Filter Chamber:
- Dirty air enters below the filters into a pre-separation dirty air plenum that separates heavier waste from fine dust. The heavier waste drops into collection bins. The fine dust spirals over the filters.
- The filter chamber is negatively pressurised to ensure air is drawn in (as opposed to being blown-in when the chamber is under pressure). The negatively pressurised filter chamber ensures that dust sealing is 100%. Should a void in the seal occur, air will be drawn from the atmosphere into the unit, no dust will be expelled into the work environment.
Inlet:
- Integrated Galvanised steel spigot,
- Standard diameter (mm): 400 nominal (other inlet sizes, types available on request)
- Location: dirty air plenum, left, or right side of plenum, rear side as an optional extra
