New Aerospace America Pneumatic Air Machine (24x24) - Type B
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The Aeroclean 9169-B is the version of Aerospace America's pneumatic HEPA air machine to look at when a job specifies AMCA Type B spark-resistant construction. Like the standard 9169, it runs on compressed air instead of electricity: a 1.7 hp air motor drives a 2,000 CFM AMCA rated direct drive blower, and the front pressure regulator varies airflow from 0 to 2,000 CFM. With no electric motor and no wiring at the machine, Aerospace America positions it for environments where explosive vapors or materials need to be filtered. Filtration is the familiar three-stage 24 x 24 in set: a pad pre-filter, a ring filter and a 24 x 24 x 12 in HEPA, so filter changes use the same parts as the rest of the Aerospace 2,000 CFM line. An inline lubricator keeps the air motor oiled, and gauges show both incoming air pressure and filter loading. It needs 100 PSI compressed air. Let your safety officer confirm the construction type the site requires before you order.”
A Type B pneumatic HEPA air machine for hazardous areas
The Aerospace America Aeroclean model 9169-B is a variable speed HEPA air filtration machine driven by compressed air instead of an electric motor. Aerospace America says it uses no electricity and is spark resistant, which makes it a strong option where explosive vapors or materials need to be filtered.
A 1.7 hp air motor drives a 2,000 CFM AMCA rated direct drive blower, variable from 0 to 2,000 CFM, through a three-stage 24 x 24 in filter set ending in a 24 x 24 x 12 in HEPA filter. It runs on compressed air at 100 PSI, and this version is built to AMCA Standard 99-0401 Type B spark-resistant construction.

Questions
Aerospace America 9169-B: common questions
What air supply does it need?
Aerospace America specifies compressed air at 100 PSI. Speed is set by adjusting the pressure regulator on the front of the machine.
Which filters does it use?
A 24 x 24 in pad pre-filter (2000-01), a 24 x 24 in ring filter (2000-02) and a 24 x 24 x 12 in HEPA filter (2000-03). A 2000-04 carbon filter is also listed for this machine.
Does the air motor need oil?
Yes. Check the lubricator on the front of the machine and refill it with SAE 10W motor oil when low. The unit ships prefilled from the factory.
How is it different from the 9169?
Both use the same compressed-air drive, airflow and filters. The 9169-B is built to AMCA 99-0401 Type B spark-resistant construction, while the 9169 is built to Type C.
