For applications that require higher capacity dust capture and filtration these slave in line filter boxes are the perfect solution. BOFAs Inline filter units are positioned alongside BOFAs fume filtration systems to increase the overall filter capacity and extend the life of the main filters

The BOFA FireBOX MA is a dedicated, inline filter with inbuilt fire suppression systems designed to protect main extraction units from the risk of drawing up metal swarf and dust that may be smouldering or molten. These are often generated during laser cutting and engraving processes, milling and grinding of metals or any other application that generates enough heat to potentially ignite the extracted dust.

If a smouldering ember is drawn into the fume extraction unit, there is the likelihood that the filter contents could ignite. Any resultant fire would normally be contained inside the extraction unit, but this could cause noteworthy damage and in extreme conditions the hazard may extend beyond the extraction unit. For a process where such dangers can be identified, extra assurance in an inline FireBOX is recommended
