Optex Hepa Jet II filtered blower cleans digital cameras and sensors with pure filtered air

TORONTO, ON., January 13, 2011 – Gentec International is pleased to offer photographers an improved solution for cleaning digital cameras and sensors with its new Optex Hepa Jet II filtered blower, featuring a unique design that removes static charges, humidity, and 99.97% of air particulates.

Developed by a biomedical engineer, chemist, and photographer, this patent pending blower integrates one-way valves with a debris-free, medical grade PVC bulb that draws air through a HEPA filter and blasts pure, clean air out the nozzle. Conventional bulbs have no filter and throw air full of dust and moisture onto the sensor, camera chamber, or lens, allowing dust to accumulate and stick with moisture and static laden grip.

Unlike flat disk filters, the HEPA filter of the Hepa Jet II has a large pleated surface area that allows for quick bounce, superior filtration, low resistance, and longevity. The integrated electrostatic filter effectively removes static charges, thus emitting neutrally charged purified air from the nozzle.

The suggested retail price of the Hepa Jet II is CAD $29.95.
