What is Flex Technology?

Erlab’s Flex Technology offers unparalleled adaptability and protection by combining advanced filtration systems with real-time monitoring.

A key component of this technology is the filter revolving system, which allows for two identical molecular filters to be installed in one column: one above the ventilation box and one below it. When the lower filter becomes saturated, the chemicals are retained by the upper filter. The upper filter then replaces the lower one upon reaching its maximum retention capacity, and a new filter is installed at the upper level. This ensures that no chemicals penetrate the room, even when the main filter at the lower level is saturated.

Benefits of the Flex Technology Revolving System
  • Advanced Filtration: Employs a combination of activated carbon and HEPA/ULPA filters to effectively capture a wide range of chemical vapors and particles, suitable for both standard laboratory environments and clean rooms.
  • Enhanced Safety: Provides an additional safety filter layer, allowing users ample time to change the operational filters when they become saturated.

Cost Efficiency: Extends the life of the operational filter layer by up to 60%, resulting in significant savings on filter consumption. When the operational filter layer is saturated, it is replaced by the safety filter layer (revolving system), and only one filter layer needs to be changed.
