Cartridge FilterCartridge

Filter: Available in large, continuous duty vacuums, the particulate capture size for a cartridge filter is 3.0 microns. Ideal for the collection of ultra-fine dusts, this “non-stick” filter captures the dust on the surface, eliminating clogging. Dust is easily cleaned from this media, which is available for dry collection only. The filter is conductive and features Teflon coating for sticky dusts. Consult your local Nilfisk Representative for which is right for you.

Microfilter

Microfilters are available for Nilfisk light industrial vacuums. The standard felt microfilter fits over the bottom of the motor, protecting it and acting like a barrier to even bacteria-sized particles. It retains 99.5% of particles, down to and including 2 microns in size. The microfilter is an important part of the graduated filtration systems of Nilfisk vacuums. Specialty microfilters include Gore-Tex, which can be used in conjunction with a Gore-Tex main filter, and AES Polycomposite, which can be used with an AES Polycomposite main filter.

Vacuumed Area

The size of the area to be cleaned and cleaning frequency dictate the required vacuum cleaner quality and durability.
For cleaning small apartments, a good cordless stick vacuum cleaner powered with a modern lithium-ion battery is perhaps all that one requires. And if that stick vacuum is an all-in-one unit, combining handheld and stick vacuum cleaner in one unit, then definitely one doesn’t need another, larger unit.
However, cleaning large(r) homes and apartments require big and sturdy, mains powered units with motorized cleaning head, with on/off brushroll switch, adjustable cleaning head height, additional stretch hose with telescopic wand, and set of accessories including various dusting brushes, crevice tools, pet turbine tool and similar.
Headlights are a great aid when cleaning in low light conditions (under furniture, for example) and in spotting dust, hair, and other dirt and objects that should be vacuumed or not vacuumed (toys, socks, etc.).
