Prima Klima ECO K2606 filter - 1500 m3/h - 250 mm

Product detailed description

Prima Klima K2606 - clean extraction without odour (250 mm flange)

The high-capacity K2606 with a 250 mm flange ventilates even a large grow room, and a flow rate of up to 1500 m3/h can be handled without noise or unnecessary pressure resistance. The Prima Klima K2606 carbon odour filter from the Eco Line range captures odour molecules in a 3 cm deep bed of highly active carbon, so only clean air without odour leaves the extract. The 250 mm flange connects to ducting and a fan of the same diameter - keep the filter, ducting and fan at one 250 mm diameter. It can handle, approximately, a large grow room of 150x150 to 200x200 cm at a flow rate of up to 1500 m3/h (optimally around 960 m3/h).

With large filters, the higher purchase price pays off in operation: the robust pressed metal housing and 5.1 kg of quality CTC75 carbon mean low pressure resistance, a long filling lifespan and quiet fan operation. For extracting air from a large grow room, a reliable large filter is cheaper than frequent replacements of an undersised unit.

How the carbon filter works

Activated carbon works like a battery: air passes through the carbon bed and organic odour molecules are captured in its microporous structure. Quality is determined by the CTC value and iodine number (how many substances the carbon absorbs), together with the thickness of the bed - the longer the air is in contact with the carbon, the better the odour is broken down. Prima Klima fills the Eco Line with anthracite CTC75 pellets (3 mm), which have low pressure resistance and also cope well with higher humidity. Once exhausted, the carbon can be topped up or replaced; the filter does not need to be thrown away as a whole.

• Horizontal and vertical installation; operating temperature 10 to 70 °C

Which fan and tent it suits

Choose a 250 mm fan with an output of up to 1500 m3/h - for example the Prima Klima 250 mm fan. The filter is suitable, approximately, for a large grow room of 150x150 to 200x200 cm. You can easily calculate the required flow rate: multiply the room volume (length x width x height in metres) by 60 and compare the result with the maximum output of the filter. It is compatible with any 250 mm fan with the corresponding output; in the Eco Line range it is followed by the smaller K2605 1300 m3/h larger K2607 2200 m3/h.

Frequently asked questions

Which filter suits my fan and tent?

Diameter and flow rate matter: the filter flange matches the diameter of the fan and ducting, here 250 mm. This model can handle, approximately, a large grow room of 150x150 to 200x200 cm and a flow rate of up to 1500 m3/h. A larger filter means more carbon and a longer lifespan, while a smaller one saves space.

How long does the carbon last?

Lifespan depends on load and flow rate - a higher flow rate means a shorter lifespan (roughly double the flow rate = half the lifespan), approximately months to over a year in normal operation. Therefore, run the filter only when odour is noticeable, and slow the flow rate down rather than up; the carbon will then last significantly longer.

Can the carbon be replaced?

Yes, the filter is refillable - once the carbon is exhausted, simply top up or replace the filling and the filter body continues to serve. Vacuum the pre-filter from time to time to extend the lifespan of the carbon. You can find other sizes among carbon filters.
