About Air Filter Efficiency Ratings

Carbon granules in these filters remove odors. They are pleated to maximize filtering surface area without reducing airflow. The cardboard frame is treated to resist humidity, and the galvanized steel grill prevents sagging.

Actual size is up to 5/8" less than trade size.

Strong-Odor-Removal Panel Air Filters

Eliminate heavy odors with these filters that have 30 times the odor removing ability of standard odor-removal air filters. The cardboard frame is treated to resist humidity, and the galvanized steel grill prevents sagging.

These filters meet UL 900 flame retardance requirements. Actual size is up to 5/8" less than trade size.

Odor-Removal Air Filter Pads

With a higher carbon concentration than odor-removal air filter rolls, these pads handle heavier odors. Cut to the size you need; frames are sold separately.

All meet UL 900 flame retardance requirements.

Pads with a carbon concentration of 375 g/sq. ft. provide greater odor control than other pads and can handle ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and other gases. They are often used in hospitals and laboratories.

Odor-Absorbing High-Vacuum Oil-Mist-Eliminating Exhaust Filters

To keep airborne oil and odor out of your work environment, connect these filters to your high-vacuum oil pump. They purify pump exhaust in two stages: a fiberglass layer captures oil and collects it into a drain, and an active carbon layer removes any odor-causing oil or chemical vapors. Attach the quick-clamp fitting on the filter inlet to your high-vacuum pump. Use a ring and clamp (sold separately) to complete the connection.
