Camfil Farr’s FB Series Housing minimizes exposure to harmful contaminants during filter service through the use of a heavy-duty PVC bag enclosure system. The entire filter changing process isolates personnel from the hazardous materials.
FB Series Housings accept only fluid seal (also called gel seal) filter and adsorber elements.
This housing series is designed and fabricated according to the applicable requirements of the ASME AG-1 Code on Nuclear Air Cleaning and Gas Treatment and N-509. Each housing is subjected to conformance testing according to ASME N510. The nuclear-grade quality assurance program guiding all aspects of design, production and testing is ASME NQA-1.
Although FB Series Housings are available in a basic configuration, various options and features can be added to build a final assembly specific to the application. These housings are typically used in facilities that incorporate hazardous materials in their processes. These contaminants may include biomedical, radiological, carcinogenic or other materials of concern.
Some specific applications include:
    •    Nuclear power plants and nuclear-related facilities
    •    High containment laboratories (BSL-3 and higher)
    •    Hospital isolation suites to prevent the spread of infectious diseases
    •    Industrial processes exhaust
    •    Microelectronic and semiconductor facilities
    •    Nuclear power plants
    •    Pharmaceutical facilities{jd_file file==68}
