- Airflow: 318 m³/h | Vacuum: 3,200 mm H₂O
- Container: 42 L – AISI 304 stainless steel (satin outside / polished inside)
- Filter: antistatic polyester (M-Class) + HEPA H14 (99.995 %)
- Noise level: 69 dB(A) according to EN ISO 3744
Technical design
The PHARMA 40.30 3D is built for continuous duty and equipped with a star filter (M-Class) of 20,000 cm² and a HEPA H14 filter of 20,500 cm² tested according to EN 1822-5 (MPPS method). The container and filter chamber are made of AISI 304 stainless steel with welded, polished interior and a quick-release Clamp Ø70 mm connection. All components are antistatic and fully grounded in compliance with EN 17348.
Options and system integration
The PHARMA 40.30 3D can be equipped with various factory options depending on the process and cleanroom requirements. All components are antistatic and designed according to EN 17348 and GMP guidelines for pharmaceutical production:
- FDA – FDA-certified antistatic filter
- XX / XX/IP / XXX – Filter chamber and frame in AISI 304 stainless steel (standard, polished or mirror finish)
- SB – Safe Bag system for secure dust collection and disposal
- FI.0469.0000 – Replacement bags for the Safe Bag system
- TA.1115 / TA.1114 – Clamp 3″ coupling kits (Ø70 / Ø50 mm) in AISI 304
- H/OUT – Downstream HEPA H14 exhaust filter
- HX/IN – Upstream HEPA H14 BIBO system in stainless steel housing
- BIBO H14 SPARE KIT – Replacement kit including filter, nylon bag and gasket
- SL.5907.0017 – Stainless steel base plate for BIBO filter replacement
- MAGNEHELIC / PHOTOHELIC – Differential pressure gauges (manual or 24 V electronic, ATEX on request)
Cleanroom compatibility
In BIBO configuration (HX/IN + H/OUT + BIBO H14 KIT) and full stainless-steel execution, the PHARMA 40.30 3D can be used in ISO 5 – ISO 4 cleanrooms for local extraction of fine and hazardous dust without any risk of contamination during filter replacement. It meets the particle-tightness and emission criteria for controlled production of active and sterile substances.
Containment and OEB level
When equipped with the BIBO system, Safe Bag and fully sealed filter chamber, the PHARMA 40.30 3D can be used in OEB 3–4 containment areas requiring high operator protection and controlled handling of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). The closed design and antistatic components ensure complete containment during operation and maintenance.
Safety and certification
- ATEX Category 3D – self-declared according to Directive 2014/34/EU
- Complies with EN 17348 and EN IEC 62784:2018 for Zone 22 applications
- H-Class according to IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA for hazardous dust
- Not ATEX-certified by a Notified Body and not for Zone 20 internal use
- All parts are antistatic and grounded to prevent ESD build-up
Technical note
The PHARMA 40.30 3D is self-declared for Zone 22 (Category 3D) and follows EN 17348 for the safe collection of non-conductive and low-risk combustible dust. As an H-Class and OEB 3–4 compatible model, it is tested according to IEC 60335-2-69 Annex AA and provides maximum operator protection against hazardous dust. Always use antistatic hoses and properly grounded accessories to maintain a resistance below 10⁶ Ω.
