Description
DAMN 505 Series Ambient Air Cleaners
The DAMN 505 Series is a high-capacity ambient air cleaner designed to quietly remove dust, smoke, odors, and fine particulate from your workspace. Each self-contained unit uses a pass-through design, pulling dirty air in one end and discharging cleaned air from the other, and comes standard with a washable foam pre-filter, high-efficiency 95% multi-pocket bag filter, variable speed control, an installed set of eyebolts for hanging, and a 10 foot power cord for simple plug-and-play installation.
Note: The pressure gauge shown in some product images is an optional add-on and is not included with the standard configuration.
These industrial air cleaners are ideal for woodworking shops, grinding and fabrication areas, personal workshops, art studios, offices, smoking rooms, bars, classrooms, ceramics and clay studios, cannabis processing spaces, and general manufacturing environments where cleaner air and reduced airborne dust are a priority.
