trailers, vans, and buses)

(OHW 2)
• Material handling equipment (OHW 3)

Exhaust Filters –
A practical alternative to fixed extraction

Vehicle exhaust fumes are still a hazardous problem even with modern engines. Even vehicles fitted with exhaust filters as standard emit the damaging ultrafine particles.

These particles travel further into the respiratory tract taking with them the carcinogenic substances associated with health problems. EHC filters can trap and contain many of these particles.

Benefits of using filters include –

• Cost effectiveness
• Available to fit most vehicles and machines
• Practical to use and truly portable
• Can be used on diesel and petrol engines
• Prolongs building decoration life

Catalyser and wall flow filters are also available. Catalysers available for LPG engines.
