Filters (Paint Booth & Spray Booth Filters)

Paint Booth Filters – Autocoat Engineering

Autocoat Engineering supplies a complete range of Filters for Paint Booths and Spray Booths — designed to meet pollution norms while keeping replacement costs to a minimum. The right filter choice is critical to booth performance: a choked filter means reduced airflow, uncomfortable working conditions, higher rejection rates and potential pollution non-compliance.

Autocoat’s signature 4-Level Filtration System uses cleanable and reusable metal baffles as the primary stage — dramatically reducing how often replaceable filters need to be changed compared to competitors’ single-stage filter designs that choke within 1–2 weeks at 20 litres/shift paint consumption.

🔩
Metal Baffle Filters
Cleanable and reusable; arrest most paint overspray; cleaned by normal methods — no replacement needed. Heart of Autocoat’s 4-level system.
🧱
Replaceable Paint Filters
Final stage filters for fine particulate matter; meet pollution norms; used in combination with metal baffles for maximum life.
🌀
Cartridge Filter System
For powder coating post-recovery — multiple cartridge filters in sealed metallic chamber; periodic purge cleans cartridges automatically.
💧
Water Wash Filtration
For Water Wash Spray Booths — turbulent water action separates paint particles; paint sludge collected in tank; only solvent escapes with exhaust.
🌊
Multi-Cyclone Recovery
For powder coating — 98% powder utilization; maintenance free; easy colour change; no powder spillage; maximum powder recovery.
🏭
Air Inlet Filters
For dust-free paint booths and clean room painting setups — ensures clean, filtered air supply to the painting area for A-class finish.
Autocoat 4-Level Filtration System — How It Works:
  • Level 1 — Metal Baffles (Primary): Arrest and capture the majority of heavy paint overspray particles; cleanable and reusable — zero replacement cost
  • Level 2 — Coarse Filter: Captures medium-sized paint particles that pass through the baffles
  • Level 3 — Fine Filter: Captures fine particulate matter; meets pollution norms for Particulate Matter
  • Level 4 — Final Stage Filter: Ensures only clean air is exhausted to the atmosphere; maximum pollution compliance
  • Amazingly low filter replacement cost — Autocoat’s metal baffle design vastly outperforms competitors’ single-stage filters
  • Meets all Indian Pollution Control Board norms for Particulate Matter
  • No ETP required for Dry Back booths — used filters can be given to ETP agents
  • Filters supplied for all Autocoat booth types — Lab, Dry Back, Water Wash, Downdraft, Large Paint Booth, Powder Coating
  • Each quote includes AutoCAD drawing and filter replacement schedule
  • Detailed maintenance manual provided at commissioning — covers periodic filter inspection, cleaning and replacement schedule

Autocoat also supplies filters and filtration upgrades for existing paint booths from other manufacturers — if your current filters are choking too frequently or your booth is not meeting pollution norms, contact Autocoat for a filter upgrade assessment.
