CL10394-PS12PK - Clean Air America PS12 Heavy Duty Replacement Filter Pack

High-Efficiency Filtration for Industrial Safety

The Clean Air America CL10394-PS12PK Heavy Duty Fume Filter is an essential maintenance component designed specifically for the PS12 Portable Fume Extractor series. In the realm of industrial hygiene and metal fabrication, the efficacy of source-capture equipment relies heavily on the quality and condition of its filtration media. This heavy-duty filter pack is engineered to handle the rigorous demands of daily welding operations, effectively trapping sub-micron particulates, metallic oxides, and process dusts that are generated during SMAW, GMAW, and FCAW processes.

Constructed with advanced filtration media, this unit offers a high Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) equivalent, ensuring that air returned to the facility floor is scrubbed of hazardous contaminants. The filter's geometry is optimized to maximize surface area, which not only improves particle retention capacity but also maintains a lower pressure drop across the media. This balance is critical for maintaining the face velocity at the extraction hood, ensuring that fumes are captured before they enter the welder's breathing zone.

Regular replacement of the main filter element is vital for the longevity of the PS12 unit. A clogged filter increases static pressure, forcing the blower motor to work harder, which can lead to overheating and premature failure. By utilizing this genuine heavy-duty replacement, facility managers ensure seamless compatibility and sustained performance. The CL10394-PS12PK is built to withstand the thermal and abrasive nature of welding fumes, providing a robust barrier that protects both personnel and downstream equipment components.

Installation is straightforward, designed to minimize maintenance downtime. The filter seats securely within the PS12 housing, preventing bypass leakage—a common issue with ill-fitting generic alternatives. Whether used in a maintenance shop, a production line, or a vocational training center, this filter is the first line of defense in maintaining a compliant and safe working environment.
