Three Step S-Class Filtration System 99.9% Effective at Removing All Particles to 0.3 Microns

First, debris is picked-up by the power brush agitation and vacuum suction and then moved up and into the three layer filter bag for the main debris collection. Then, suctioned air moves through the entire dust bag and into a motor protection filter located underneath the filter bag. Finally, the electrostatic exhaust filter cleans the air the vacuum emits with 250 square inches of surface area.

Founded in 1978 by a team of German engineers, SEBO has become the largest manufacturer of high-quality commercial upright vacuum cleaners in the world. Throughout the design and manufacturing stages of its various vacuum cleaners, SEBO has focused on providing its customers the key benefits of ease-of-use, reliability, consistent cleaning effectiveness, and high filtration. The features and durability of SEBO's vacuums naturally led to demand in the consumer market as well. Since its debut, SEBO has satisfied millions of customers around the world and become one of the most highly renowned brand names available.

Bag vs. Bagless Systems

Bagless Container Full	Same Contents in a SEBO Dust Bag

Bagless systems present two potential problems:

1. Hygienic Dirt Disposal - keeping the air free of allergens and dirt/dust can be difficult when emptying a bagless system. Bagless systems do not offer a sealed method to dispose of collected debris without creating a dust cloud and reintroducing what the vacuum picks up, back into the air. To prevent the release and exposure to dust/allergens when emptying, SEBO vacuums have patented a sealable 3-layer bag. Because the bag comes away with the cover, you can dispose of it without handling it with no dust escape.

2. Low Capacity -  a bagless system is prone to fill rapidly when picking up light fluffy material such as pet hair. This requires frequent emptying of the dirt collection containers and higher exposure to household dust. Additionally, when the air is restricted from moving around the bagless container, the airflow through the vacuum will drop. Less air moving through a vacuum means less suction and poor performance. In a SEBO vacuum, air travels through all areas of the dust bag which keeps air flow and suction from declining and also compacts fluffy material to increase capacity. A well designed dust bag system can hold many times more material than a bagless system.

SEBO S-Class Filtration

With today's increasing health concerns regarding the rise of allergy and asthma sufferers, it's important to maintain a pollution-free environment in the home. Consumers need a household vacuum with high filtration they can trust to remove dust, dirt, and allergy-causing particles without re-circulating them into the living areas. Clean air not only helps to prevent certain respiratory problems, it also means a lot less dusting.

The SEBO C-series machines come standard with extremely efficient filtration systems. The exhaust air has been independently proven to meet the S-Class filtration standard of 99.9% to 0.3 microns (1/300th size of human hair). For particles of 1 micron and larger, which include pollens, dust mites, mold spores and most animal dander, the filtration rate is 100%. Tests by the British Allergy Foundation have shown that these SEBO vacuums produced zero levels of detectable airborne dust mite allergen. Measurements were also performed by SLG/Chemnitz in Germany to confirm S-Class standards for SEBO vacuums.

Why should I worry about Filtration?

The quality of air is becoming an increasingly important issue. The problems of "indoor air pollution" is getting national attention because of the growing numbers of people experiencing persistent headaches, sore throats, burning eyes, and asthma and allergy flare-ups related to the quality of indoor air.

After the energy crisis of the 1970's, homes were constructed to be more energy efficient. While sealed buildings save money, they also shut off the healthy transfer of outside air. As a result, people are now exposed to much higher levels of contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, pollen and dust mites.

Does the SEBO vacuum have a HEPA filter?

Just because a machine has a great filter doesn't mean it has great filtration. Most vacuum companies with high filtration are actually quoting a specification made by the manufacturer of the filter. Their claims do not take into consideration that air can escape the machine through leaks in the machine or exterior bags. The following is from an article on this subject from Indoor Environment Review, March 1998 issue:

"While researchers have studied a few vacuums that contained the high-efficiency particulate air, or HEPA, filters, most manufacturers claim their vacuums are "HEPA quality". We can only imagine what the average consumer is thinking they're buying when they bring a "HEPA" vacuum home.

"New test results presented at a recent EPA conference on particulates proved there's no guarantee of filtration quality when it comes to seeing the word "HEPA" on a vacuum. Researchers found that HEPA filters must be tightly sealed in the system to be of use in capturing particulates. In addition, some vacuums tested had HEPA filters that were so small, they weren't efficient at certain (air) flow rates. So just what can be considered an efficient vacuum in today's marketplace?

One researcher, Susan Goldsmith of InterBasic Resources, Inc., suggests consumers look for some kind of certification on the vacuum, where the cleaner and filter was tested, and whether the entire assembly or filter was tested before purchasing a vacuum cleaner with a so-called HEPA filter.

The SEBO achieves its "S-Class" Filtration rating due to its superior combination of filter media and airtight machine design. Measuring the SEBO as a complete unit gives a more accurate measurement of its true filtration performance. The S-Class filtration standard is the capture of 99.9% of all particles as small as 0.3 microns. The Industry Standard for HEPA (High Efficiency Particle Arresting) filters is the capture of 99.97% of all particles to 0.3 microns.

Major Product Details

Adjustable Handle Height	ON/OFF and Power Control	Cord Wrap and Handle Slide Stopper	Outside Exhaust Filter
Convenient Dust Bag Access	Swivel Neck Floor Tools for Maneuverability	Easy Roller Brush Maintenance	Lifetime Toothed Gear Belts

Ergonomic Adjustable Height Handle with Power Control - Telescopic handle allows simple height adjustment and is designed to reduce wrist and arm fatigue. Easily accessible electronic power control switch on the handle turns the vacuum and power head ON/OFF and adjusts the suction power of the vacuum according to the required task.

• Low suction range for cleaning delicate fabrics, such as curtains.

• Middle suction range for daily cleaning of lightly soiled surfaces.

• High suction range for durable floor coverings, hard floors and heavily soiled areas.

Flat-to-Floor Profile - The SEBO Felix upright vacuums are designed to lay flat on the floor and are only about 6 inches high in this position. This allows the user to vacuum those hard to reach areas such as under beds and below furniture.

Multi-Stage Certified Clean Air Filtration System - Totally sealed and certified clean air vacuum begins with a 3 layer dust bag. Next, a motor micro-filter captures remaining particles and protects the motor. The third stage is the decorative exhaust filter to clean the exhaust air the vacuum emits.

Handle Slide Stopper and Power Cord Wrap - When parked upright or when the power head is removed, the rubber button at the end of the handle stabilizes the vacuum and protects walls. The power cord is available immediately when the hook is swiveled to release the power cord. No need to waste time unwrapping the power cord to start vacuuming.

Decorative Exhaust Filter - The large fabric surface area of the exhaust filter diffuses the air stream for gentle air flow and absorbs motor noise to help keep the vacuum quiet. No forceful exhaust blowing at you or kicking up dust.

Simple Filter Replacement - It is impossible to install the dust bag in the SEBO Felix incorrectly. The filter bag stands upright and automatically finds the correct position with the closing of the lid. Flip over dust bag plugs provide for sanitary dust-free disposal. Recommended motor micro-filter and exhaust filter replacement period is when 10 to 20 dust bags have been filled or when a significant drop of suction is noticed, such as after a damaged dust bag was being used or when extremely dirty or clogged with dust. These filters should be replaced at the same time.

Detachable Suction Unit and Carrying Handle - When detached from the power head or floor tool, the Felix transforms itself into a lightweight, powerful suction unit, weighing less than 10 lbs. The ergonomic carrying handle fits big and small hands, left or right and the integrated hose handle is easily removed for on-the-go vacuuming with hand tools.

Swivel Neck Floor Tools - The adjustable, turning swivel neck on the power head and parquet floor brush allows extreme maneuverability for vacuuming more comfortably and effectively.

Lifetime Power Brush Gear Belts - fiberglass woven toothed gear belt will not to slip, stretch, crack or break. Power head belts that stretch and slip will slow down the beater brush and agitation, leading to poor performance. Belts that don't hold up under use can be an inconvenience and costly repair.

Easy Maintenance - The entire vacuum cleaner can be disassembled to its basic parts in seconds with no tools. This allows for easy maintenance should a clog or obstruction occur. Brush rollers are easily replaced. With the removal of an access door and a push of a button, the brush roller will slide out.

Included Tools

Premium Parquet Brush - Especially developed for hard floors, it cleans sensitive, smooth floors without almost touching them. Straight and curved rows of flexible natural bristles channel the air flow and provides excellent edge and crevice cleaning. Bristle rows are removable for cleaning or replacement. This 11" wide tool was designed for heavy-duty use with double bearing elastic castors for smooth operation and a swivel neck that allows flat-to-floor operation and exceptional maneuverability.

Crevice Tool - Full size tool gives you a long reach to get into tight spots, along walls and around deep furniture cushions.

Upholstery Tool - Used to vacuum over padded furniture, bedding and anywhere there are low nap fabrics.

Included Power Head Options

The SEBO Felix Premium Upright Vacuum has Two Power Head Options and these Basic Features:

1. Lifetime Belt - fiberglass woven toothed gear belt is guaranteed for 3 years not to slip, stretch, crack or break and should last a lifetime. Power head belts that stretch and slip will slow down the beater brush and agitation, leading to poor performance. Belts that don't hold up under use can be an inconvenience and costly repair.

2. Brush Rollers are Replaceable and Easily Removable - with a simple push of a button, the brush rollers can be removed. This feature allows quick maintenance for brush roller replacement or should a clog occur and fast cleaning of hair and threads that may wrap around the brush roller .

3. Automatic Power Shut Off and Overload Protection- should the power head get stuck, such as when accidentally picking up a cloth towel, shirt, belt, etc, the power head automatically shuts off the brush roll in three seconds to prevent damage and allow easy removal of the clog. No disassembly is required, simply pull the item straight out from the power head and turn the vacuum off/on to reset the power head and you are right back to vacuuming.

4. Power Off in Upright Park Position - when the telescopic tube is vertically locked in place on the power head, the power brush will shut off. This allows you to temporarily "park" the unit while you perform some other task during vacuuming.

5. Adjustable Operation - power brush step-on ON/OFF switch on the power head allows you to manually turn off the brush for cleaning hard floors and delicate carpets. Manual height adjustment dial allows 4 height settings from bare floor to high carpet.

6. Electronic Feedback - Built-in sensor monitors power brush agitation resistance and ensures the proper height level is selected. Indicator light provides user feedback and will illuminate if height setting is too low or if the brush roller is worn.

7. Maneuverability - "L" shaped design allows optimum movement around furniture and under cabinets. Swivel neck allows power head to rotate and move in any direction for exceptional maneuverability.
