4088.200 - Optrel e3000/e3000x HEPA TH3 Particulate Filter Replacement

High-Efficiency Particulate Filtration for Optrel PAPR Systems

The Optrel 4088.200 is the designated High-Efficiency (HE) particulate filter for the Optrel e3000 and e3000x Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) systems. Engineered to meet the rigorous TH3 classification under European standards, this filter provides the highest level of respiratory protection available in the class, capturing 99.8% of airborne particles. This includes solid and liquid aerosols, welding smoke, metallic dust, and other hazardous particulates commonly generated during industrial welding and fabrication processes.

The filter media is constructed to maximize surface area, which serves two critical functions: it extends the service life of the filter by accommodating a higher particulate load before clogging, and it maintains low breathing resistance. Low resistance is essential for optimizing the battery life of the blower unit and ensuring consistent airflow to the welder's helmet. As a genuine OEM component, the 4088.200 ensures a perfect mechanical seal within the blower housing, preventing contaminated air from bypassing the filtration media—a critical safety factor in environments containing toxic substances like hexavalent chromium or manganese.

This filter is strictly a particulate filter and does not provide protection against gases or vapors unless used in conjunction with a specific gas filter adapter (where applicable and supported). For facility managers and safety officers, utilizing genuine Optrel filters is necessary to maintain the NIOSH or CE certification of the respirator system. The 4088.200 is designed for easy inspection and replacement, allowing for minimal downtime during maintenance intervals.
