PFS EXHAUST WALL

PFS Exhaust Wall — Standard

STANDARD SERIES

The PFS Exhaust Wall is an open-face spray finishing system for painting parts, panels and components without a full booth enclosure. A high-capacity tube axial fan pulls overspray through fiberglass filter media, CID2 lighting has front service access, and fire suppression is built in.

The standard unit shown is about 7 ft high × 7 ft wide × 4 ft deep. It comes single- or 3-phase, ducted or ductless.

STANDARD SERIES

What's Standard on Every Exhaust Wall

01

High-Capacity Tube Axial Fan

Heavy-duty UL listed tube axial fan sized for the unit. 208/240V 3-phase standard; single-phase optional. Captures overspray at the source.

02

CID2 Lighting — Front Service Access

Class I Division 2 fixture with front service access for easy lamp changes. Fluorescent or LED tube compatible; LED upgrade available.

03

Built-In Fire Suppression

Integrated fire suppression built into the unit, so no separate system is required.

04

High-Efficiency Filter Media

Fiberglass exhaust media captures overspray before it reaches the fan. Easy to replace; upgraded media available for high-volume work.

05

Optional Ductless Configuration

Available without an exhaust duct. A recirculating filtration system keeps the shop clean without exterior duct runs.

06

Optional Power Cord

Plug-in installation with no hardwiring, for shops that need to reposition the unit.

07

NFPA 33 Construction

Built to NFPA 33 spray application standards in galvanized or powder-coated steel.

08

Many Sizes & Configurations

From compact benchtop units to large walk-in walls. Single- or 3-phase, ducted or ductless, with or without heat.

PLANNING GUIDE

Choosing a Paint Booth Exhaust Wall

What to decide before you order.

An exhaust wall (also called a paint wall or open-face booth) is the simplest way to spray parts, panels and components. It captures overspray at the wall with no full enclosure. Choose a full enclosed booth when you need a clean, dust-free finish on vehicles or large assemblies, or when local rules require an enclosed spray area.

Ducted walls exhaust outdoors through a stack and suit regular production spraying. Ductless walls recirculate through filtration with no exterior duct run, which is useful where a roof or wall penetration is impractical. Check with your air district and fire official which configuration your process allows.

Size the filter face to the parts you spray. The wall should be wider and taller than the largest part, with room for the painter to work in front of it. Standard units start around 7 × 7 ft; large industrial walls are built floor to ceiling in custom widths.

Spray areas fall under NFPA 33. PFS exhaust walls include built-in fire suppression, CID2 lighting and UL listed fans, and the large industrial series adds a UL 508A control panel.

Fiberglass exhaust media is easy to change. Replace it on a schedule and whenever the airflow drops. PFS Filters stocks replacement media for every wall.

Exhaust walls work well beside a prep station and a paint mixing room, so sanding and paint storage stay out of the spray area.
