Can-Filter Original Carbon Filter without Flange CAN 100 840 CFM

Can-Filter Original Carbon Filter without Flange CAN 100 - 840 CFM

The Can-Filter Original has been the benchmark for activated carbon air filtration in controlled growing environments for over 30 years. The CAN 100 model handles 840 CFM with the industry's thickest granular carbon bed at 2.5 inches - creating the maximum contact time between contaminated air and virgin activated carbon for the most complete VOC, odor, and gaseous contaminant removal available in a packed-bed filter design. Sold without a flange for flexible custom ducting configurations.

Key Features & Benefits

• 2.5in Granular Carbon Bed: The thickest carbon bed in the industry means more activated carbon for air to pass through, resulting in superior contaminant capture capacity and the longest lifespan of any comparable filter.
• Packed Bed Design: 30 years of proven performance with a granular packed bed that delivers consistent, low-pressure-drop filtration without the channeling issues that affect pleated or thin-bed alternatives.
• 0.1 Second Contact Time: Conservative contact time rating ensures effective VOC and odor adsorption even at rated flow, providing confidence in real-world performance.
• 840 CFM Flow Rate: Sized for 840 CFM to match your inline fan selection and maintain proper air exchange rates for your grow space.
• Virgin Activated Carbon: Made with granular virgin activated carbon - not recycled or reactivated material - for maximum adsorption capacity right out of the box.
• Without Flange: Flange-free design allows for custom ducting configurations and adapters to fit a wide range of installation setups.

Who Should Use This

The Can-Filter Original is the choice for serious cultivators who prioritize maximum filter lifespan and contaminant removal capacity over lighter-weight alternatives. The CAN 100 size is ideal for medium-to-large grow rooms where 840 CFM of clean, odor-free air exchange is required.

Compatibility

Rated for 840 CFM. Sold without a flange - pair with compatible duct flanges, adapters, or collars for your specific inline fan and duct size. Compatible with Can-Filter and third-party pre-filter sleeves for extended service life. Controls VOCs including paint fumes and hydrocarbons, odors, and other gaseous contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose the Can-Filter Original over the Can-Lite?

The Original features a thicker 2.5-inch carbon bed and higher total carbon mass, giving it a longer service life and higher contaminant capacity than the Can-Lite. The Can-Lite trades some lifespan for a lighter weight and integrated flange. For maximum lifespan in demanding environments, the Original is the better choice.

How long will the Can-Filter Original last?

Service life depends on VOC load, airflow rate, humidity, and temperature. Under typical grow room conditions with a clean pre-filter in place, the Original's thick carbon bed can last 1-2 years or longer. Always use a pre-filter to protect the carbon bed from particulate loading.

Does this filter come with a pre-filter?

The Original is sold without a pre-filter. Can-Filter MERV-5 and Can-Lite replacement pre-filters are available separately and are strongly recommended to protect the carbon bed and extend service life.

Why is the filter sold without a flange?

The flange-free design provides installation flexibility for growers who need custom duct configurations, non-standard sizes, or who already have specific duct adapters in their setup. Compatible flanges and adapters are available separately.
