Carbatec Room Air Filter - 1/3HP with 5 Micron Filter

Once you've finished cutting and sanding operations and have turned off your dust extractor and protective mask, you might think you've been sufficiently safety conscious about protecting yourself from dust inhalation. However, when you see a ray of sunlight through a window, you can see that a lot of dust remains suspended in the air. 

This machine further enhances the safety of your workshop by drawing air into it, filtering the dust, and returning the filtered air to the room or shed. It can run quietly in the background, filtering out even the finest dust particles. To maximise your filtration capability, you can use an optional third-stage charcoal odour filter sold separately. 

The standard AF-2000C filters >99% of particles 5 microns or larger and 85% of particles down to 1 micron. It features pre-set run times of 2,4 or 8 hours. This unit also has a diffuser on the exhaust side, providing a more even spread of clean air. 

It is suitable for hanging from your ceiling, mounting on a wall, or placing on a stand or bench. Our AF-2000C 1/3hp room air filter features a remote control and variable extraction capacities of 800, 1200, and 1700cfm. Adding more air filters increases your air filtration capacity.

Workshop tips:

If the unit is mounted to a building structure, ensure the area will support at least 55 kg. Never mount to surfaces such as plasterboard, suspended ceiling or timber wall cladding (unless you are attaching through this to the studs)

A good rule of thumb for calculating what approximate CFM is required to filter your workshop air effectively:

METRIC: Your workshop Length X Width X Height (meters) X  6.000 = Minimum CFM required for 10X per hour exchange
IMPERIAL: Your workshop Length X Width X Height (feet) X  0.1666 = Minimum CFM required for 10X per hour exchange

Example: For a 10m X 10m X 3.6m Shed, you would require 2160cfm to filter the air 10X per hour, so two AF-2000C running at half speed would be sufficient.
