Allegro 5 Micron Filter Element 987, 987831

The Allegro 5 Micron Filter Element (Part Number: 987, 987831) is a high-performance filtration component used in Allegro breathing air systems and equipment. Its primary function is to ensure that the air being supplied for breathing is clean, safe, and free from harmful particles, contaminants, and impurities. Here’s a detailed description of its features, specifications, and uses:

Features:

1. 5-Micron Filtration

   • Effective Particle Removal: The 5-micron filter element is designed to capture particles as small as 5 microns in size. This level of filtration ensures that dust, dirt, debris, and other particulate matter are removed from the compressed air before it reaches the respirator or breathing apparatus.
   • Pre-Filter Functionality: Ideal for pre-filtering the air in systems where finer particulate removal is required to protect more sensitive downstream filtration systems (such as carbon or fine filters).

2. Compatibility with Allegro Equipment

   • Specifically Designed for Allegro Systems: This filter element is made to fit seamlessly into Allegro breathing air filtration systems, including air purifiers, compressors, and air supply lines, ensuring optimal performance and air quality.
   • Part Numbers 987 and 987831: These are the specific part numbers for the 5-micron filter element, making it easy to identify the right replacement part for your Allegro equipment.

3. Durable and Long-Lasting

   • High-Quality Construction: Made with durable materials to withstand the harsh conditions found in industrial, construction, and confined space environments.
   • Extended Service Life: Depending on usage and air quality, the filter element can last a considerable amount of time before needing replacement, reducing maintenance costs.

4. Application for Breathing Air Systems

   • Industrial Safety and Compliance: Used in breathing air systems where clean, safe air is essential, such as in confined spaces, spray booths, or hazardous environments where workers wear respirators.
   • Meets Safety Standards: Helps maintain compliance with OSHA, NIOSH, and other regulatory agencies that require clean, breathable air for workers in hazardous conditions.

5. Easy to Replace and Maintain

   • User-Friendly Design: The Allegro 5-Micron Filter Element is easy to replace in Allegro air filtration units. Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the air quality remains within safe and acceptable levels.
   • Maintenance Indicator: In some Allegro systems, a pressure differential indicator or visual signs may show when the filter needs replacement, helping ensure the system always operates optimally.

6. Versatile for Multiple Applications

   • Air Purification for Various Industries: Suitable for a variety of industries, including construction, mining, paint spray operations, and chemical processing, where workers need clean, breathable air in potentially hazardous environments.
   • Prevents Contaminant Ingress: Protects not only the workers but also the more sensitive components of the breathing air system, ensuring longer life and better performance for the entire system.

Benefits:

• Protects Workers: Ensures that the air workers breathe is free from harmful particles, improving workplace safety and preventing respiratory issues.
• Prevents Damage to Equipment: Protects the more sensitive components of the air system from debris, potentially extending the life of compressors and regulators.
• Compliance with Safety Regulations: Helps employers comply with regulations that require clean air for workers in dangerous environments.
• Cost-Effective: Regular replacement of filter elements helps reduce long-term maintenance costs and ensures air quality is consistently high.
