The OmniAire 18000

 is our largest portable HEPA air system with a 18,000 CFM air flow capacity. The 

OA18000 is a modular air filtration machine with a unique versatility in setup and number of optional filters to assist 
you on your projects. The OmniAire 18000 can be used to purify and re-circulate air or create positive or negative air 
pressure containment areas. It is used for mold, asbestos & lead abatement projects, construction sites, restoration 
projects, water or fire damage clean-up and many other applications.

Blower Cabinet Features

The OmniAire 18000 modular system consists of Blower cabinet and three Filter cabinets, all connected by flex hoses. 
The cabinets are easy to transport and setup at any type of projects, including high-rise buildings and HAZMAT 
removal jobs. The Blower cabinet contains twin 22 vane-axial blowers with 7.5 HP motors and controls and operates 
on a 3-phase 480 VAC/60HZ/30 AMP power source. The portable blower cabinet is mounted on (4) 4” heavy duty 
casters with brakes. The reinforced steel internal frame enables the blower unit to be moved by forklift or crane. 

HEPA Cabinet Features

Each Filter cabinet contains 3 filters, which could be 99.99% HEPA or bag filters. The individual filter cabinets each have 
a differential pressure gauge to measure loading of the filters with particulates. Filter cabinets are mounted on casters 
with brakes, weigh 200 lbs. when fully loaded with HEPA filters. Options such as HEPA, Carbon, and Bag filters allow 
flexibility from project to project. Three (3) flex hoses connect the modular filter cabinets to the blower cabinet. Hoses 
are 18” dia, 25’ long.

To create 

NEGATIVE PRESSURE

 inside the containment, 

more air has to be exhausted out than leaks into the 
containment. Place the machine inside the containment 
and hook a flexible duct to the outlet ring of the 
machine exhausting to outside the containment. 
(See Above) All of the air being exhausted has been 
treated by the HEPA filter so no contaminants are being 
exhausted from the containment.

To create 

POSITIVE PRESSURE

 inside the containment, 

more air has to be pumped in than leaks out of the 
containment. Place the machine outside the containment 
and hook a flexible duct to the outlet ring of the machine 
ducting the exhaust into the containment. (See Above)
