Festool Air Scrubber SYS AIR

[Hawkeye0001]

Festool just announced a portable air cleaner with 680 m³/h output, active filtration monitoring as well as M-class, H-class and HEPA filter system options.
Apparently there is going to be a ceiling mount, from the looks of it it's more like a Sys RB dolly robbed of its wheels and replaced by threaded rods to mount into the ceiling.
Unofficial price indications float at around the 1000€ mark [eek]

Very cool device. As we know, they aren’t the first to do this in a sustainer, but we all know the Festool solution will be very well thought out and their warranty will be a welcome change to the few forum members that explored the other systainer based solution.

Ceiling mount seems wasteful for such an expensive device; if you are permanently mounting it I think other offerings from Jet, etc. make sense.  There is no need for organization in that application (vs. mobile/job site/something you are storing and taking out), and a similar non-systainer solution would be lower height (even if it takes up a wider area).

For job site use I think it could make sense, collection at the source is never perfect.

Thanks! And I swear I didn't read any of it until at least the day after tomorrow!  [big grin]
Pretty slick main filter design I've to say. Though I can only imagine the prices for consumables are gonna look like with this seemingly proprietary filter solution.

So for the sys air M, that's about 400cfm. Any info. on its noise level?

I'd imagine this is an expensive piece of equipment to just hang from the ceiling. Seems like there are better/cheaper options out there for that purpose.  [smile]

However, I could see mounting this on a Sys Cart and rolling it around the shop for air scrubbing at the source. Those 6" x 48" belt and 12" disc combination sanding machines come to mind. Even with dust collection a lot of dust still gets away.

Remote control would also be nice.

Until now this was my only option.

I appreciate the availability of the dual-purpose duct to either help with source-point collection and/or to create a negative pressure environment as needed, too.

Even though this may take its sweet time to make it to North America, and will likely be expensive as all get-out, it's less vaporware than some other past Systainer-based options, and hopefully with better support.
