About this range

For CO₂ laser cutting and engraving of acrylic, paper, card, leather, textiles and technical plastics, and for resin-based 3D printing. The FS series combines a large-area F9 pre-filter, a HEPA H14 stage and an activated carbon bed, sized by the bed of the machine: 30×40 cm up to 130×250 cm. If the machine also cuts wood or MDF, use the FGS series instead.

    1. Stage 1 · F9 pre-filterholds coarse dust · 95% @ 1.0 µm
    2. Stage 2 · HEPA H14holds the fume you cannot see · 99.99% @ 0.3 µm
    3. Stage 3 · Activated carbonholds VOC and odour
    4. Fan after the filters: it pulls through every stage, so suction at the nozzle stays the number that matters.
  3. Clean airback into the room, no outside duct
How a PURE-AIR unit cleans the air. Only stage 1 changes between series — that is what you are choosing when you pick FS, FGS or DFS.

−8 600 Pa at the inlet

filter life 65%

  • Airflow held steady as the filter loads
  • Air-quality sensors with alarm thresholds
  • I/O and RS-485 — starts with the machine

Both are current models. PIPS earns its place where the unit runs unattended, feeds a line, or has to prove it is working.

What the operator sees. The “i” suffix is the control system, not a newer machine.
What you processSeriesWhy that one
Acrylic, paper, leather, textiles, resin 3DSeries: FSF9 pleated pre-filter
Wood, plywood, MDFSeries: FGSPTFE cartridge — sticky dust releases
Carbon fibre, composites, laser cleaningSeries: DFSFlame retardant cartridge, antistatic duct
Laser marking and codingSeries: F · DSSub-micron fume, carbon for odour
Metal — one station (weld, drill, AM)Series: D compactUp to 10 000 Pa at the nozzle
Metal — a full cutting bedSeries: D industrialVolume plus self-cleaning cartridges

Then size it: the machine bed decides the airflow — 30×40 cm needs 300 m³/h, 130×250 cm needs 2400 m³/h.

The material decides the filter. Picking by airflow alone is the mistake that blinds a filter in weeks.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the filtered air go?

Back into the room. The mobile units are recirculating, so there is no duct to the outside and no heated air thrown away in winter. The central industrial units are ducted to the machine enclosure and need a compressed-air line for their self-cleaning cartridges.

What maintenance does it need day to day?

Check the element is seated and sealed before running. When the blockage alarm shows, replace it then — running on past it pushes fume into the fan and the control board, which turns a filter change into a repair.
