Product Description

The Airpura 900 is a portable industrial fume extractor built for workspaces where fumes, smoke, and fine dust are generated all day. Its blower moves up to 850 CFM free flow (650 CFM with filters installed, per Airpura) through a poly prefilter, a 20 lb SuperGas activated carbon filter for gases and odors, and a MERV-13 particle filter — all in a 52 lb powder-coated steel cabinet on casters that plugs into a standard 115V outlet.

Who It's For

Per Airpura, the 900 is intended for welding, machining, and 3D printing workshops; laser engraving and manufacturing facilities; hair and nail salons; and bars, restaurants, cigar lounges, and cannabis consumption lounges. In welding environments, Airpura's 900-series material cites fine metal particles from electrodes, wires, and coated metals along with gases such as manganese compounds, ozone, and nitrogen oxides as the contaminants these units address. It suits shops that need serious gas-phase and particle filtration on a single-phase 115V circuit, without installing ducted extraction.

Key Features

  • Up to 850 CFM free-flow airflow — 650 CFM with filters installed, per Airpura — with variable speed control
  • 20 lb SuperGas activated carbon filter in a 2" bed for fume, VOC, and odor adsorption
  • MERV-13 particle filter for fine dust, smoke particulate, and metal fines
  • Poly prefilter catches coarse debris and extends the life of the deeper stages
  • Standard 115V / 60 Hz single-phase power, drawing 2.1 A — no special wiring
  • 52 lb on casters — rolls between workstations as jobs move
  • Powder-coated steel housing built for shop conditions

How the Filtration Works

  1. Poly prefilter intercepts coarse dust, hair, and debris so the carbon and particle stages stay effective longer.
  2. 20 lb SuperGas activated carbon filter adsorbs gases, fumes, VOCs, and odors — the stage that separates a fume extractor from a plain dust collector.
  3. MERV-13 particle filter captures fine particulate, including smoke and metal fines, before air returns to the room.

Airpura 900 vs 900-MAX

The 900-MAX doubles every filtration stage: two poly prefilters, 40 lb of SuperGas carbon (2 x 20 lb), and dual MERV-13 particle filters in a taller 42" cabinet weighing 72 lb. Per Airpura, the MAX configuration is aimed at larger or more heavily contaminated workspaces. Choose the 900 for single-station shops and lighter fume loads; step up to the 900-MAX when contamination is continuous or the space is bigger.

Filter Replacements

Replacement prefilters, SuperGas carbon filters, and MERV-13 filters for the 900 are available through us — call (302) 496-3554 and we will order the right set for your unit. Replacement timing depends on fume load and run hours; heavy daily use consumes carbon faster, so call us to work out a schedule for your shop.

Warranty & Support

Per Airpura, units in commercial use are covered for parts and labor for 2 years, with labor coverage through year 5 (filters and electrical plugs excluded); residential use carries Airpura's 5-year parts / 10-year labor terms. As a family-owned authorized Airpura dealer, we handle warranty coordination and application questions directly at (302) 496-3554.

Shipping

The 900 is a heavy unit and may arrive by freight carrier. Before signing the delivery receipt, inspect the packaging and note any dents, punctures, or crushed corners on the driver's paperwork — this protects your claim if concealed damage turns up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a fume extractor and a regular air purifier?

Duty cycle and media depth. The 900 is built around a 20 lb industrial carbon stage and a high-static blower so it can process continuously generated fumes and fine dust in work environments, rather than the background levels a residential purifier is sized for.

Does the 900 need special wiring?

No. It runs on 115V, 60 Hz single-phase power and draws 2.1 A, so it plugs into a standard US outlet.

Is it suitable for welding fume?

Per Airpura, the 900 series is intended for welding, machining, and 3D printing workshops, and its material cites fine metal particles and gases such as manganese compounds, ozone, and nitrogen oxides among the contaminants addressed. Verify your shop's specific ventilation requirements for your processes.

Does it have a HEPA filter?

No — the particle stage is a MERV-13 filter, which Airpura pairs with the SuperGas carbon for fume and smoke applications. If you need true HEPA filtration with heavy carbon, look at Airpura's F or T series or call us to compare.

How loud is it?

76 dBA on high, per Airpura — comparable to typical shop background noise. The variable speed control lets you run it lower between active work.

How often do the filters need changing?

Airpura does not publish fixed intervals for the 900 series because fume loads vary widely by shop. As a rule, replace the carbon when odors start passing through and the particle filter when airflow drops noticeably — or call us and we will help you estimate based on your usage.

Can it move between workstations?

Yes — at 52 lb on casters with a standard plug, it rolls wherever the work is.
