WARNING!Risk of personal injury
Various health and safety organizations have
advised about the risks of disease transmis-
sion, including C VID-19, through aerosol-gen-
erating procedures. The contents of this pub-
lication reflect Nederman’s best efforts to in-
terpret available guidance and provide recom-
mendations regarding the use of Nederman
products to mitigate the risk of disease trans-
mission inherent with aerosol-generating pro-
cedures.
These recommendations do not and are not in-
tended to, constitute legal or medical advice.
ur solution is intended to be part of an over-
all safety strategy, which is ultimately the re-
sponsibility of the end-user, as no one system
can completely eliminate the risk of disease
transmission. We encourage customers to con-
sult appropriate counsel and advisors and make
an informed decision in choosing to use Neder-
man’s solution to reduce aerosol concentra-
tion.
Nederman is available to assist customers in
better understanding how to properly install,
operate, and maintain the Nederman solution
in order to leverage its effectiveness for your
business purposes.
3Description
3.1Intended use
The filter unit MFS is designed for filtration of aero-
sols (fog, mist, dust and fumes) as well as gases/va-
pours from solvents. It can be a part of a local exhaust
ventilation system for separating welding fumes con-
taining CMR (carcinogenic mutagenic reprotoxic) sub-
stances, where the complete system must be in com-
pliance with required legislations, see www.who.int
for classification of welding fumes.
NOTE!
The MFS filter is not suitable for use in collect-
ing combustible dust. The carbon/gas filter op-
tion can be used for controlling odours and va-
pours from non-toxic smelling solvents in mod-
erate concentrations.
