High-Efficiency Filtration for DustPRO Universal Systems
The BOFA HEPA Filter (Part No. 1UA1030161) is the primary high-efficiency particulate filter used within the DustPRO Universal dust extraction system.
Installed after the bag pre-filter stage, the HEPA filter removes extremely fine airborne particles generated during processes such as machining, routing, grinding, and engraving.
This second-stage filtration ensures that clean filtered air is returned to the workspace while protecting the extraction unit’s internal components and blower system.
Key Features & Benefits
Advanced Glass Fibre Filter Construction
The filter uses pleated glass fibre filter media combined with a maxi-pleat construction and webbing spacers to maximise filtration surface area while maintaining airflow efficiency.
Key features include:
-
High-performance glass fibre filtration media
-
Maxi-pleat filter design for increased surface area
-
Webbing spacers to maintain consistent airflow
-
Sealed construction to prevent air bypass
This design helps ensure consistent filtration performance even in demanding industrial environments.
Efficient HEPA Filtration Performance
The BOFA 1UA1030161 HEPA filter provides 99.995 % filtration efficiency at 0.3 microns, effectively capturing extremely fine dust particles and airborne contaminants.
Benefits include:
-
Cleaner workshop air
-
Reduced airborne contamination
-
Improved operator safety
-
Optimal extraction system performance
HEPA filtration systems are designed to remove extremely fine particles from the air stream, supporting safe industrial air quality standards.

Extraction Units
This replacement HEPA filter is designed for use with BOFA Universal Extraction Units.
The filter is supplied as a direct replacement component and can be installed easily without modification.
Equivalent Filter Bag
The DustPRO Universal uses a two-stage filtration system:
Stage 1 – Pre-Filter Bag (1UA1030170)
-
Captures larger particles
-
Protects HEPA filter
-
Maintains airflow
Stage 2 – HEPA Filter (1UA1030161)
-
Captures fine airborne dust
-
Ensures clean air output
Using both filters together ensures:
-
Maximum efficiency
-
Reduced maintenance costs
-
Longer system lifespan
Maintenance & Replacement
Extraction systems rely on regular filter maintenance to maintain airflow and filtration efficiency.
HEPA filters should typically be replaced:
-
When airflow performance decreases
-
When the extraction system indicates filter blockage
-
As part of routine annual maintenance
Filters should not be cleaned or reused, as this may damage the filtration media and reduce efficiency.
Replacing the HEPA filter at the recommended intervals helps ensure your extraction system continues to operate safely and efficiently.
