Systemair SAVE VSR 400 filter classes and dimensions

The standard configuration of this unit uses the following filter classes and sizes. All dimensions below are given without gasket – filters are supplied with gasket:

F7 / ePM1 60% – supply air panel filter
Size: 422 × 240 × 100 mm
M5 / ePM10 50% – extract air panel filter

This combination provides an excellent balance between fine particle filtration (pollen, fine dust, allergens) and low pressure drop, allowing energy-efficient and quiet operation.

Carbon filter kit – for odor and VOC reduction

The carbon filter kit for SAVE VSR 400 contains activated carbon filters that help reduce:

odors from traffic, cooking, smoking or industry
volatile organic compounds (VOC)

This kit is especially recommended for homes located near busy roads or urban areas where odor control is important.

How often should SAVE VSR 400 filters be replaced?

Recommended replacement interval:

1–2 times per year in normal residential use
more frequently if:
- you live near busy traffic or construction areas
- there is high dust level or pollen
- pets are present indoors

Filters should also be replaced earlier if visibly dirty or if the unit displays a filter/service alarm. A clogged filter increases pressure drop, reduces airflow and raises energy consumption.

Filter installation in Systemair SAVE VSR 400

switch off the unit before opening the service panel
remove used filters carefully to prevent dust spreading inside the unit
check the airflow direction arrows on the filters and install accordingly
ensure filters fit tightly with no bypass gaps

Always refer to your specific Systemair SAVE VSR 400 user manual for detailed instructions.
