The HEPA filter in the Optrel Swiss Air PAPR is one of its most important features, as it provides exceptional protection against airborne particles and contaminants. HEPA stands for High-Efficiency Particulate Air, and HEPA filters are designed to capture particles down to 0.3 microns in size. This is important because many harmful particles, such as dust, pollen, and mould, fall within this size range.

HEPA filters are made up of a mat of randomly arranged fibres that capture particles as they pass through. These fibres are typically made of materials such as fibreglass, activated carbon, or other materials that are electrostatically charged to attract particles.

The HEPA filter in the Swiss Air PAPR works in a similar way. As the wearer breathes in, the air is drawn into the device through the filter, which captures harmful particles and contaminants. This ensures that the wearer's air is free from these harmful particles, providing exceptional protection against airborne contaminants.

HEPA filters are widely recognized as one of the most effective ways to remove harmful particles and contaminants from the air. They are commonly used in a range of applications, including air purifiers, vacuum cleaners, and respiratory protection devices like the Swiss Air PAPR.

In summary, the HEPA filter in the Optrel Swiss Air PAPR is a critical component that provides exceptional protection against harmful airborne particles and contaminants. Its ability to capture particles down to 0.3 microns in size makes it one of the most effective ways to remove harmful particles from the air, ensuring the safety and protection of workers in industrial settings.

Happy workers, happy life

Lightweight and comfortable to wear for hours. Not bulky and doesn't get in the way while working. Comfortably worn under welding helmet and/or visor. More effective than a standard respirator at filtering fumes. Headband seems a bit light but overall quality is high.
Used in a General Engineering workshop when welding primed and galvanised steel over the past month. We got one to try it out and will definitely be buying more for the team.
Proline have been great to deal with over this purchase.
