JET 3 Speed Air Filtration System with Remote and Electrostatic Pre-Filter
A good filtration system is as important as any tool in your shop, and the Jet AFS-1000 is a pretty inspired machine. Like other systems on the market, Jet's uses a two-filter process: an outer filter removes particles up to 5 microns in size and an inner, three-pocket filter traps particles as small as 1 micron. The electrostatic outer filter easily withstands three or four washings, and the inner filter can be blown clean easily with compressed air. On the power end, Jet's three-speed, 1/6-horsepower motor filters to 1044 cfm on high speed. The outer filter is well sealed and provides efficient intake. However, what really sets the AFS-1000 apart from most filtration systems is its remote control and timer features. Since these systems are most effective when placed high or hung from the ceiling, being able to control all of the unit's functions via remote control is a feature we quickly decided we wouldn't want to live without. The timer, which can also be set via remote, affords you the option to set it and forget it.
Jet's AFS-1000 scrubber offers a lot of features: a 5-micron outer filter and 1-micron inner filter; a three-speed motor that provides 450, 550, or 650 cubic feet per minute (cfm); a timer that can shut the scrubber off after two, four, or eight hours; and a remote to control the whole deal, turn it on and off, set the speed, and set the timer.
