Airbrush spray booth

By contrast, this is the one I use also on the Benchvent site

I always thought the two were the same apart from the extraction or recirculation part but the data sheets say different.

The 'S runs an axial fan whereas the 'S-D has a centrifugal one, presumably to counteract the extra back pressure of the hose, where "squirrel cages" have the edge.

Interesting that the BV300S has a photo with Premi Air Liquid Reamer in it. That's a pretty smelly solvent, shifts most paints.

Thanks for that Barry. Useful to see the specifications side by side. The carbon filter makes a huge difference to the airflow velocity at the face doesn’t it. The airflow on your vented S-D is almost twice as high!

I'm hoping members can see my posts which say awaiting moderation for visitors? I've been feeling rude for not replying to everyone but am not sure you can see my replies! Lol

All things considered I think I'll definitely go for one of their recirculatory units (size being the only factor to consider) as I think it is the best solution for my given situation. This decision has been massively influenced not only by this thread but also threads on this site/forum I visited "as a guest" prior to joining. So for this I truly thank everyone for their knowledge.

I would like to be able to offer opinions on other threads but I don't seem to have posting privileges in most sections of the forum! Anyone know if/when that will change?

Thanks again!

My extractor is not vented outside and faces a white tile wall. I hung a piece of card over the outlet just in case anything gets through and that has a faint circle of colour after about 5 years use. Nothing on the wall though. I do only spray acrylics so I have fewer issues with fumes.
