Filter bag vs. Disposable bag Which do I use when?

Disposable bag: Use a Disposable bag in a vacuum cleaner with AC (Autoclean). This allows the dust to be disposed of cleanly. As you are extracting into the so-called "open system" and the filter is regularly knocked off, you should use our robust and coated HP or High Performance filter.

Filter bag: A Filter bag and a standard Main filter are used for all applications without the Autoclean function. There is also an optional Longlife filter bag for dust class L, which is ideal for coarser particles but less suitable for fine dust.

Which dust class is there?

Dust class L:
Dusts hazardous to health with limit values > 1 mg/m³. For simple and harmless dusts, e.g. house dust, soil and lime.

Dust class M: Dusts hazardous to health with limit values > 0.1 mg/m³. For all wood dusts as well as dusts from Scraper, filler and paint, plaster, cement, concrete, tile adhesive and paints such as latex and oil paints or quartz-containing materials such as sand and pebbles.

Dust class H: Dusts hazardous to health with limit values ≤ 0.1 mg/m³. For carcinogenic and pathogenic dusts, e.g. asbestos and mould.
