Dry filtration / Molitron equipment

EPFA

Three stages of dry filtration.

The Enviro-Pak Filter Assembly (EPFA) is Molitron’s pollution control unit for light-duty commercial kitchen exhaust. Three dry filter stages remove smoke particulate and grease vapor.

Dry filtration Molitron EPFA Enviro-Pak Filter Assembly closed stainless steel unit

Where EPFA fits

EPFA sits in the exhaust path between the kitchen hood and fan. Dry filtration uses no process water, circulation pumps or chemical dosing.

Plan the installation

Coordinate duct, support, service access, drains, fire suppression, monitoring and fan selection with the project team and authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

Does EPFA provide odor control?

EPFA's standard stages address smoke particulate and grease vapor. The final stage may use MERV 14 media or optional carbon; broader odor-control needs may call for MOAS.
