AC Filter - an engineered solution protecting worker health

october 2021 - January 2022 AC Filter - an engineered solution protecting worker health

Control the risk to your machine operators and truck drivers from fine dust, hydrocarbons and other harmful airborne contaminants

The AC Filter cabin overpressure and filtration story began more than 30 years ago in The Netherlands and it has proven its durability and value.

Fillflex manufactures, supplies and maintains AC Filter systems for any cab, on equipment of any type and size.

“Our technology has often been copied, but there is only one genuine ACFilter product range,” says Fillflex New Zealand managing director Bill Hackshaw.

“The system optimises your equipment’s in-cab operating environment to protect both the health of the operator, and the existing heating, cooling and electronic systems in place. AC Filter complies with standards CROW132 and NEN4444.”

Filters are certified, and available for all applications, including asbestos, respirable crystalline silica, pollen, spores, hydrocarbon aerosols and gases that are harmful to humans.

Parts and filters are of the highest quality, carrying the European CE Quality Mark.

The system has a standard AOC (Advanced Overpressure Control) unit fitted in cab, with an optional PPM (Particles Per Million) readout function for hydrocarbons.

The system is designed to maintain a pre-set value of 120pa in the cabin.

The system operates automatically when the vehicle is started to check for the status of the filters in the unit and the quality of the air pressure.

If the pressure drops below 100pa the display will blink and an acoustic alarm will sound.
