Cab Filtration

DUTCH INDUSTRIES PROTECT AIR CAB FILTRATION SYSTEM

One of the key tools in modern agriculture is pest control. Weeds, insects and fungi work relentlessly to rob producers of yield and profit. Pesticides offer producers exceptional value, when used according to label instructions. Developments in pesticide molecules have made these compounds very specific to their intended target, reducing risk to non target organisms. However, the human nose can detect the odors of certain substances even when they are diluted to 1 part to 30 billion. Even slight exposures may cause long term health problems such as reduced lung capacity, or chronic asthma attacks.

The Protect Air Cab Filter by Dutch Industries is the only cab filter available in the market today that exceeds ASAE Standard S525-2 for pesticide fume bombardment. Designed by a Saskatchewan Farmer, these filters combine common sense design and scientific performance. Not only are these filters exceeding ASAE standards, Protect Air Cab Filters are also environmentally friendly. The filter unit itself can be used for a lifetime as the screening media (filter paper and activated carbon) are both replaceable. This reduces waste and improves cost efficiency to the producer.

The filter paper was selected to have the correct pore size to maximize particle filtration and is paired with activated carbon, Carbo-gran, to an air purifying depth of one inch, to remove even the last of the pesticide vapours!

For irritating anhydrous ammonia odours use the standard filter paper and the specially formulated Ammo-gran media for cleansing these fumes. One filter body for 2 purposes! Dutch Protect Air Filters are highly effective and cost efficient, providing added protection for you and your operators.

Please note that in cases where pesticide labels indicate a respirator is required, the Dutch Protect Air Cab Filtration system does not replace the need to use a respirator. The Dutch Protect Air Cab Filter will provide you with added protection in these cases. The Protect Air Cab filter does not provide protection outside of the cab environment.
