Vacuum Pump Exhaust Filter Can Help Reduce Safety Violations

Oct. 15, 2010
Balston vacuum pump exhaust filters remove 99.9% of 0.1 micron oil mist and smoke particles, eliminate oil accumulation in ductwork, recover expensive lubricating oils, and eliminate potential OSHA and EPA violations.

Parker Hannifin's filtration and separation division has expanded the Balston vacuum pump inlet and exhaust filter product line to include new models offering replaceable filter elements.
 
The filter element can be changed out in less than one minute without the need for any tools. Balston vacuum pump exhaust filters remove 99.9% of 0.1 micron oil mist and smoke particles, eliminate oil accumulation in ductwork, recover expensive lubricating oils, and eliminate potential OSHA and EPA violations.

The Grade 30 filters also prevent oil backstreaming from the pump to the evacuated chamberand protect the pump from damage by submicron particles (at relatively low concentrations). All Balston filters are available for hazardous and nonhazardous applications and offer chemical and solvent resistance.
