INNOVATIVE DESIGN
Our products are designed with innovation and ingenuity. Rather than simply meeting the standards required for filters, we go above and beyond to provide products to increase efficacy and reduce maintenance labour.

Our filters remove the grease and smoke in a commercial kitchen, this improves the air quality in the workplace, creating clean air safe for kitchen employees or occupants to breath comfortably. Apart from removing air pollution, filters also play a key role in reducing the risk of grease fires. The filters prevent grease laden vapours entering the ventilation system. If grease builds up in the rangehood or ductwork, it presents a fire hazard. The removal of risk and hazard is essential to creating a healthy work environment.

Our rangehood filters are designed with a unique honeycomb mesh made of corrugated foil in a herringbone shape to create channels that trap grease resultant from commercial cooking. The grease laden air enters the filter and the grease is split from the air by channels changing the air direction through air cross sections, the inertia forces the grease to condense and adhere to the mesh. For ease of use filters are fitted with steel plated retractable handles. Filters are manufactured with drainage holes to allow excess grease to drain out of the holes instead of building up and preventing future grease laden vapours being filtered.

In order to maintain filters they must be cleaned on a regular basis depending on the amount of grease in a kitchen. ARMCO soak tanks are designed not only to remove grease but to remove carbon as well, from filters and utensils. The unique product removes the need of harsh chemicals that are abrasive and can damage filters and utensils. Instead simply clean it in the soak tank with detergent. The design also allows the soak tank to be self-contained, mobile, limiting the amount of space it takes up in the kitchen.

QUALITY PERFORMANCE AND INSTALLATION

Our honeycomb filters have been laboratory tested for their proven effectiveness. Our performance results indicate a 0.4m/s increase in face velocity and a 2-5 Pa increase in resistance per 100 litres of air flow for our filter, AH002. For a smaller filter, AH001 the results indicate a 0.5-0.6m/s increase in face velocity and a 2-8 Pa increase in resistance per 100 litres of air flow.

Filters maintain their level of performance for a lengthy period of time provided that they are maintained properly. Filters need to be cleaned regularly to minimise the possibility of collected grease dripping in semi liquid form and maximise their potential to trap grease. They must also be cleaned properly, using environmentally friendly cleaners and equipment will protect the filter. Cleaners with caustic solution should not be used as they can cause corrosion and increase the frequency of changing filters.

Installing filters is simple. ARMCO honeycomb grease filters should be installed with its face at no more than 30° from the vertical. This reduces the likelihood of grease dripping off the filter face. It is important to ensure that the filter is installed with the cell layer vertical, with the handles on the vertical side of the filter. Under no circumstances should the filter be installed with the layer on the horizontal.

ALUMINIUM FILTERS’ RANGE

ARMCO Honeycomb Grease Filters are made for rangehood ventilation systems in commercial kitchens. Made from high quality, acid resistant aluminium the filters are very durable. The aluminium filter is designed and constructed to ensure easy handling and cleaning. The filter media is made from 50mm wide aluminium foil, which is specially corrugated into a herringbone shaped channel. This foil when placed one on top of one another form a curved honeycomb channel. When the incoming grease laden air passes through, the air is forced to change direction and the grease clings to the mesh. This unique structure, the honeycomb grease filters provides little resistance, causing no trouble for the ventilation while catching oil in the air. This prevents the grease form entering the exhaust system.

FRAME
Armco honeycomb filter is encased in a 50mm thick aluminium frame. All frames have drain holes for the cooking fat to drain in to the canopy channels. All filters are fitted with steel plated retractable handles. Large D handles, which are fitted offset.

APPLICATIONS
Armco honeycomb grease filter is mostly to be used in commercial range hood ventilation system such as kitchen in hotel, restaurant and etc.

BENEFITS

• Larger specific surface area
• Low airflow resistance
• Replaceable filtering element
• Affordable cost

STAINLESS STEEL FILTERS’ RANGE

Our Stainless Steel Filters are made to uphold the highest standards of quality. Fitted into your kitchen canopy this filter will allow the maximum airflow and velocity. The filter prevents flames getting into the ventilation ducts as well as trapping grease.

Our filters are made of highly durable steel, SS40 grade, to ensure they are reliable and long lasting, even in the most heavy-duty kitchen. The filters are easy to maintain; stainless steel filters can be cleaned by consumers without damaging the product, as long as filters are installed and maintained according to ARMO specifications. If maintained properly stainless steel filters will not discolor nor will they ever need to be replaced.

SPECIFICATIONS
The filter frame and media are made of stainless steel which work highly efficiently in cooking range hoods.
