AFS-1000C vs AFS-850

JET AFS-1000C vs JET AFS-850. Of the 9 figures both makers publish, 3 differ: horsepower, current and weight. 3 are worded too differently to set side by side: airflow, filtration and dimensions. Both are air filtration units, compared on the 9 figures published for both.

Where the AFS-1000C and AFS-850 figures differ

  • Horsepower: AFS-1000C: 1/3HP. AFS-850: 1/5HP.
  • Current (amps): AFS-1000C: 3.8 A. AFS-850: 2.5 A.
  • Weight: AFS-1000C: 33 Ib (15 kg). AFS-850: 31.9 Ib (14.5 kg).

Stated differently, not directly comparable

The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

  • Airflow: AFS-1000C: 450 to 1000 CFM (±10%) across six fan speeds, without filter. AFS-850: 850 CFM.
  • Filtration: AFS-1000C: Outer: 5 Micron, Inner: 1 Micron. AFS-850: 1 Micron @ 98%.
  • Dimensions: AFS-1000C: 30-1/8" x 24-1/4" x 15-3/8" (765 x 615 x 390 /mm). AFS-850: 19.134" x 19.134" x 36.575".

Cited for one of the pair: only JET's cited pages give cord length. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the AFS-1000C and AFS-850 match there.
