Frequently Asked Questions

What does a HEPA filter mean and how efficient is HEPA H14?

A HEPA filter (High Efficiency Particulate Air filter) is a high-efficiency air filtration standard designed to capture very fine airborne particles. HEPA filtration is widely used in industrial air filtration systems and cabin pressurisation systems to protect operators from harmful contaminants.

HEPA filters are tested at 0.3 microns, which is the most penetrating particle size. They are highly effective at removing respirable silica dust, fine particulate (PM2.5), diesel particulate matter, and airborne contaminants commonly found in mining and heavy equipment environments.

HEPA H14 is a higher-grade HEPA filter with a filtration efficiency of ≥99.995% at 0.3 microns, compared to H13 at ≥99.95% at 0.3 microns.

H14 HEPA filtration is recommended for:

  • Mining and high-dust environments
  • Applications with respirable silica exposure
  • Operator cabin pressurisation systems require higher protection
  • Situations where air quality standards, such as ISO 23875, Workplace Exposure Limits or RS20, must be achieved

H13 HEPA filters may be suitable for lower-risk environments. However, H14 provides a higher level of filtration efficiency and is preferred for critical industrial air filtration applications where maximum protection is required.

MERV vs HEPA: what’s the difference?

MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) and HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) are both air filter rating systems, but they apply to different levels of filtration performance.

MERV ratings (typically MERV 1–16, graded by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) are used for general HVAC and ventilation filters. Higher MERV ratings capture smaller particles, but even the highest MERV filters are designed for comfort and general air quality, not hazardous dust control.

HEPA filters (graded by ISO and government agencies) operate at a much higher efficiency. A HEPA filter tested per EN1822 captures ≥99.95% (H13) or ≥99.995% (H14) of particles at 0.3 microns MPPS, including respirable silica dust, fine particulate (PM2.5), and diesel particulate.

In industrial air filtration systems and cabin pressurisation systems, HEPA filtration is required where there is exposure to fine or hazardous airborne particles. MERV-rated filters may be used as pre-filters, but they are not sufficient on their own for high-risk environments. When talking about respirable dust, even the lowest HEPA grade filter has a higher efficiency than MERV 16 filters.

For applications such as mining, heavy equipment cabins, and operator protection systems, HEPA filtration provides the level of performance needed to maintain safe air quality.

What particles can HEPA filters remove?

HEPA filters are designed to remove a wide range of fine and hazardous airborne particles commonly found in industrial and mining environments.

These include:

  • Respirable silica dust
  • Coal dust and mineral mine dust
  • Diesel particulate matter (DPM)
  • Grain dust and wood dust
  • Fibrous materials such as asbestos and nuisance dust
  • Mould, smoke, and airborne contaminants

BreatheSafe HEPA filters are tested per EN1822 at 0.3 microns (MPPS). At H14 grade, it can achieve up to 99.995% efficiency, making it highly effective at capturing the particles most harmful to operator health in cabin pressurisation systems.

Why do I need a HEPA pressuriser and how does it work?

A HEPA pressuriser is the key product of cabin pressurisation systems to protect operators from respirable silica dust, fine particulate (PM2.5), and airborne contaminants commonly found in mining and industrial environments.

It works by drawing in external air, passing it through a HEPA filter, and supplying clean air into the cabin while maintaining positive pressure. This positive pressure prevents unfiltered air, dust, and contaminants from entering through gaps, doors, or leaks.

By combining HEPA filtration with controlled airflow, a HEPA pressuriser ensures that only clean, filtered air enters the cabin, making it a critical component in industrial air filtration systems where operator health and air quality compliance are required.

Why do I need a pressuriser with variable speed brushless motor?

A variable speed or brushless motor allows the pressuriser to adjust airflow based on operating conditions, such as filter loading, changes in cabin pressure, and environmental dust levels.

This provides:

  • Consistent cabin pressure even as the filters load
  • Improved energy efficiency by only using the power required
  • Longer motor life compared to brushed motors
  • Lower maintenance, as brushless motors have fewer wear components

In high-dust environments such as mining, this ensures the system maintains protection without performance drop or excessive wear.
