The Sanitaire 61840 is a washable HF-5 HEPA filter cartridge that keeps commercial upright vacuums sealed and filtering at their best. It captures 99.97% of dust and allergens down to 0.3 microns, so fine particles stay trapped in the machine instead of blowing back into the room - a must for facilities that care about indoor air quality.
Built for the job
Because the 61840 is washable, it is reusable: rinse it, let it dry fully, and reinstall. Keeping a clean HEPA filter in the machine also protects suction and airflow, which is what makes a commercial vacuum feel strong again.
Common uses
- Maintain allergen control and indoor air quality in commercial buildings
- Restore lost suction on a vacuum with a clogged filter
- Keep Sanitaire and Eureka uprights sealed to HEPA standard
- Stock a reusable spare so a dirty filter never sidelines a machine
