KP1852-1 - Lincoln Electric Activated Carbon Odor Filter for Prism and Mobiflex Extractors

Get Rid of the Smell with the Lincoln Carbon Filter

If you have ever welded on galvanized steel, you know the smell. It’s distinct, unpleasant, and it lingers in the shop long after the arc is extinguished. Even with a good fume extractor running, sometimes the smoke disappears but the smell remains. That is because standard filters catch the dust, but they don't catch the gas. The Lincoln Electric KP1852-1 Activated Carbon Filter is the solution to that problem. It is designed specifically to scrub the air of those nuisance odors that make working conditions tough.

This isn't a replacement for your main filter; it's an upgrade. The carbon filter looks like a wrap that fits right over your existing main filter cartridge in your Prism or Mobiflex machine. It acts like a sponge for smells. As the air gets pulled through your extractor, the main filter grabs the welding smoke particles, and then this carbon layer grabs the odors, ozone, and gases. The result is cleaner, fresher air coming out of the back of the machine. It makes a huge difference in smaller shops or when you are doing heavy fabrication work on coated materials.

Lincoln Electric also made sure that changing this filter isn't a dirty job. We all know that old filters are covered in soot and grime. That's why every KP1852-1 comes with a "change-out kit" right in the box. You get a dust mask to protect your lungs, a pair of gloves to keep the soot off your hands, and a plastic bag to seal up the old, smelly filter immediately. It’s a simple, thoughtful addition that makes maintenance quick and clean. If you are running a Lincoln Prism or Mobiflex unit, adding this carbon filter is the best way to keep your shop smelling as clean as it looks.
