Prima Klima Carbon Filters

The German manufacturer PrimaKlima has been developing ventilation products since 1996. Among this brand's proudest products are odour filters, which it exports throughout the EU and to more than 20 other countries worldwide!  From its wide range, we offer not only odour filters but also top-quality fans, reflectors and discharge lamps; original modular LED lighting is also available. An interesting fact is that this traditional company, founded in Bretten, Germany, is now based in the Czech town of Radnice.

What puts PrimaKlima products above the rest is the quality that is evident in the design, workmanship, materials used and even the smallest details. Continuous testing and product improvement have led the company to now boast four product lines, none of which is anything to be ashamed of. In addition to reliably absorbing odours, these carbon filters also help fans operate more efficiently.

Models from all product lines share these common features:

• Uncompromising quality of the materials and carbon used
• Easy installation
• Excellent odour absorption
• Great service life

Pit Puk does not look like a filter range at first glance, but the opposite is true. In fact, it is more versatile than a classic filter - the basis is the "Pit" plastic flange(in 100, 125 and 150 mm variants), onto which the "Puk" carbon cartridge fits. It is possible to use multiple cartridges and adjust the filter as needed. The filter can be attached to the end of ventilation (intake and extract) or two flanges can be used and the filter connected into the ducting (inline).

ECO Line is a very common choice among our customers. It is mainly the excellent quality-to-price ratio that puts it on a pedestal. Under the replaceable pre-filter made of non-woven fabric, you will find a sturdy metal housing with a three-centimetre layer of high-quality CTC 75 carbon. Depending on the environment, the service life of the filters is around 9 months. A huge range of sizes and capacities is available, so it suits every space.

From the ECO Line range, we have also selected Combo kits, in which you will find a high-quality filter of the same brand with a suitable filter. Variants with capacities of 360 m3/h and 400 m3/h are available.

Industry filters are especially appreciated by demanding customers and professional growers. They offer excellent odour adsorption and stand out above all for their service life, which reaches up to two years. Inside you will find a 4 cm thick layer of eco-friendly coconut carbon. The filters are made to last - the entire construction is cleverly designed and robust. A pre-filter is standard.

CarboCone filters are the newest range, distinguished mainly by the original shape of the inner carbon housing and extremely long service life. We have divided it into two categories according to the carbon used: CarboCone CTC65 and CarboCone CTC75.

CarboCone filters have a carbon chamber reinforced at the end where the filter connection is expected. This is where the largest volume of air flows, and this is exactly where the carbon in a conventional filter with a straight wall first loses its adsorption properties. There is therefore more carbon where it is needed and less where the airflow is weaker. This uses less carbon and increases the efficiency of odour adsorption. The service life of the filter is also increased (by an estimated 30%) to an almost unbeatable three years!

To ensure your filters last as long as possible, we recommend keeping the pre-filter on its surface as clean as possible. It captures dust and any larger airborne impurities that could damage the filter. Depending on the amount of dust and other contamination in the environment, the pre-filter needs to be cleaned regularly. It can simply be shaken out, vacuumed or put in the washing machine. 

If the pre-filter is damaged, we recommend buying a replacement.

TIP: PrimaKlima filters work perfectly with compatible fans of the same brand.

Please note that the service life of each filter depends on the environment in which it is used. A dusty or humid environment may reduce the service life, while in other conditions the filter may last longer. Therefore, please treat the service life figures as estimates only.

Frequently asked questions about Prima Klima filters

How do I choose the right filter size?

Choose the filter according to the fan output in m³/h and the duct diameter. The filter capacity should match the fan or be slightly higher - an undersised filter creates resistance, restricts airflow and clogs up faster. If you are not sure, we will be happy to calculate the capacity with you.

Can the filter be connected for intake and extract?

Yes. A classic filter is most often mounted on the intake of an extract fan inside the space, while the Pit Puk range can handle intake and extract thanks to its modular flange, or inline connection into the ducting between two flanges.

Can I tell when the carbon in the filter is exhausted?

The most reliable sign is that the filter stops retaining odour. Activated carbon wears out gradually depending on operation and environmental humidity, so treat the stated service life only as an estimate and replace the filter when it loses effectiveness.

Do I have to wash or replace the pre-filter?

Clean the pre-filter regularly - just shake it out, vacuum it or wash it. It protects the carbon from dust and extends the filter's service life. If it is damaged, buy a replacement pre-filter.
