First-Stage Filtration for DustPRO Extraction Systems
The BOFA filter bag (Part No. 1UA1030241) serves as the primary pre-filter stage in the DustPRO 250 and DustPRO 400 dust extraction units.
During operation, contaminated air first passes through the bag filter where larger dust particles and swarf are captured before reaching the HEPA filter stage. This staged filtration system helps maintain extraction performance while protecting the more sensitive HEPA filter from premature blockage.
Key Features & Benefits
High-Capacity Polyester Filter Design
The filter bag is constructed from high-quality polyester filter media, providing reliable particulate capture and durability in industrial environments.
Key features include:
-
Polyester non-woven filter media
-
Single-pocket suspended bag design
-
Integrated rubber gasket for sealing
-
Optimised airflow for DustPRO extraction systems
The robust construction ensures consistent filtration performance even in demanding dust-producing processes.
Efficient F8 Rated Filtration
The DustPRO bag filter provides F8 filtration efficiency (approximately 95 % at 0.9 microns), effectively capturing medium and coarse dust particles generated during industrial operations.
Benefits include:
-
Reduced dust load on the HEPA filter
-
Improved extraction airflow
-
Longer HEPA filter lifespan
-
Lower overall maintenance costs

Equivalent HEPA Filter
The DustPRO 250 & 400 utilise a 2-stage filtration system:
Stage 1 – Pre-Filter Bag (1UA1030241)
-
Captures larger particles
-
Protects HEPA filter
-
Maintains airflow
Stage 2 – HEPA Filter (1UA1030287)
-
Captures fine airborne dust
-
Ensures clean air output
Using both filters together ensures:
-
Maximum efficiency
-
Reduced maintenance costs
-
Longer system lifespan

Maintenance & Replacement
Regular filter replacement is essential to maintain extraction performance.
Filter bags should typically be replaced:
-
When the extraction unit indicates filter blockage
-
When airflow performance decreases
-
As part of routine maintenance schedules
Used filter bags should not be cleaned or reused, as this can damage the filtration media and reduce efficiency.
Replacement intervals depend on the specific dust load and application.
For best performance, replace the filter bag together with the HEPA filter (1UA1030287) when required.
