The BL 45 DEX is the general-purpose machine of the single-phase ATEX range. It has the same certified brushless head as the BL Pro, on a taller body with two and a half times the filter area and a drop-down bin that wheels clear for emptying.
The star filter is antistatic M-class polyester, backed by an H14 absolute filter. A lever on the outside of the filter chamber shakes the dust cake off the filter and into the stainless steel bin. As with every DEX machine, the internal chamber is certified to category 1D and all parts are bonded to earth.
