Funtzionamendu-printzipioak
The Shop-Vac HEPA Filter utilizes a dual-layer design for effective particle capture:
- Stainless Steel Mesh Outer Layer: This layer acts as a pre-filter, capturing larger debris and protecting the inner HEPA media.
- HEPA Media Inner Layer: This high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) layer captures fine dust, pet dander, pollen, and other microscopic allergens down to 0.3 microns.
This combination ensures that the vacuum maintains strong suction while effectively cleaning the air expelled from the unit. Regular cleaning of the filter, as described in the Maintenance section, is crucial for sustaining optimal performance.
