KP3551-1 - Lincoln Electric Aluminum Discharge Filter for DownFlex and Prism Systems

High-Efficiency Filtration for DownFlex Systems

The Lincoln Electric KP3551-1 Aluminum Discharge Filter is a specialized component engineered to optimize the performance of Lincoln's DownFlex and Prism fume extraction systems. Designed specifically for the DownFlex 200-M, DownFlex 400-MS/A, and Prism Down Draft tables, this filter serves a critical role in industrial air quality management. By acting as a final stage in the filtration process, it ensures that air returned to the facility environment is free from residual particulates that may have passed through the primary filtration stages.

Durable Aluminum Construction

Constructed from high-quality aluminum, the KP3551-1 offers superior durability compared to standard disposable filters. This robust build allows it to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial environments, including those found in shipbuilding, heavy fabrication, and automotive manufacturing. The aluminum mesh design effectively captures fine particles while maintaining adequate airflow, ensuring that the fume extraction system operates at peak efficiency without causing backpressure that could strain the motor.

Dual-Purpose Protection

Beyond its primary function of filtering exhaust air, the Lincoln Electric Discharge Filter provides essential protection for the equipment itself. When the DownFlex or Prism system is not in operation, the filter acts as a shield, preventing larger particles, shop debris, and foreign objects from entering the main filter cabinet from the outside. This dual-purpose functionality extends the lifespan of the internal components and reduces the frequency of maintenance required for the main filter assembly.

Seamless Compatibility and Installation

This genuine Lincoln Electric part guarantees a perfect fit for the specified models. With dimensions of 1.00 inch in height, 13.00 inches in width, and 18.00 inches in length, it slides seamlessly into the discharge slot of the DownFlex and Prism units. Maintenance personnel can replace the filter quickly, minimizing downtime and ensuring that the welding station returns to operation immediately. Whether used in robotic welding cells or manual repair stations, the KP3551-1 is an indispensable asset for maintaining a clean and safe working environment.
