BAGS FOR DEXOS 1217 VACUUM CLEANER

What is the Mirka Bags for DEXOS 1217 Vacuum Cleaner and why choose them?

The Mirka Bags for DEXOS 1217 Vacuum Cleaner are original fleece dust bags specifically designed for the Mirka DEXOS 1217 / DEXOS 1217 M AFC dust extractor. They are supplied in a pack of 5 and provide efficient dust collection for dry vacuuming tasks, helping to keep the extractor interior and main filter cleaner for longer. This improves extraction performance, reduces maintenance needs and supports a cleaner working environment. Some details below are based on distributor information and, while carefully checked, may not be fully verified. For precise data, always check the official Mirka technical datasheet.

Main features

• Original Mirka accessory compatible with the Mirka DEXOS 1217 / DEXOS 1217 M AFC dust extractor.
• Pack of 5 bags, allowing extended use before replacements are required.
• Fleece filter bag construction for good dust retention and durability during dry vacuuming.
• Helps protect the main filter by capturing the bulk of the dust before it reaches the internal filter system.
• Supports consistent extraction performance by reducing clogging of the main filter and internal components.
• Easy to install in the base of the DEXOS 1217 extractor; the bags clip into place with the inlet facing upward (based on distributor descriptions, not manufacturer-verified).
• Intended for dry use; dust bags must be removed before wet extraction operations (information from distributors; confirm with Mirka for critical applications).

FAQ

1. Are these bags compatible with all DEXOS extractors?

They are described by distributors as compatible specifically with the Mirka DEXOS 1217 and DEXOS 1217 M AFC models. Compatibility with other DEXOS versions is not confirmed and should be checked against the official Mirka documentation.

2. How many bags are included in one pack?

The standard presentation mentioned by distributors is a pack of 5 fleece dust bags.

3. Can the bags be used for wet extraction?

No. Distributor information states that the fleece dust bag must be removed before wet extraction. These bags are intended for dry vacuuming only. For safety and to avoid damage, always follow the Mirka extractor manual.

4. Do these bags replace the main filter?

No. The bags work in combination with the dust extractor’s main filter. Their role is to capture most of the dust before it reaches the filter, helping extend the filter’s service life and maintain extraction performance.

5. Are the bags reusable?

These are intended as disposable dust bags. Reuse is not mentioned in the available information and is generally not recommended, especially in professional and regulatory environments.

6. What material are the bags made of?

Some distributors describe them as fleece filter bags made from PE fleece with a cardboard closure. This detail is not directly confirmed by Mirka in the sources consulted, so it should be treated as indicative only.

7. Are they suitable for hazardous or combustible dust?

Distributors typically indicate that they are general-purpose dust bags for standard dry dust extraction. Suitability for hazardous or combustible dusts is not confirmed. For such uses, consult the official Mirka safety and technical guidance and follow all local regulations.

8. How do I install the bag correctly?

According to distributor descriptions, the bag clips into the base of the DEXOS 1217 with the inlet pointing upwards to allow optimal filling. For precise instructions, follow the installation steps provided in the Mirka DEXOS 1217 user manual.

9. How should used dust bags be disposed of?

Distributors advise disposing of used dust bags in accordance with local regulations for industrial or construction waste. If the dust collected includes hazardous substances, follow the corresponding hazardous waste guidelines.

10. Where can I find exact technical and safety data?

For exact and up-to-date technical and safety information, including certifications and detailed material composition, it is recommended to check the official Mirka technical datasheet and safety documentation for this product.

Transport information

No specific transport classification (such as ADR, RID, IMDG or IATA) is indicated in the public distributor information consulted for these dust bags. As a general, non-verified guideline, fleece dust bags for vacuum extractors are typically considered non-hazardous articles for transport when empty and clean. If the bags contain dust or residues from hazardous materials, the package may need to be treated and declared according to the nature of the collected dust. For definitive transport classification and packaging requirements, always refer to the official Mirka safety documentation and applicable transport regulations.

Individual protection measures

There is no dedicated safety data sheet publicly detailing personal protective equipment requirements for these dust bags alone. However, when installing, removing or disposing of used bags, it is good practice to follow the PPE recommendations associated with the dust extractor and the materials being collected:

• Use suitable respiratory protection if there is a risk of inhaling fine dust when changing or handling used bags.
• Wear protective gloves to avoid direct contact with collected dust and to maintain basic hygiene.
• Use safety glasses if dust may become airborne during bag removal or handling.
• Follow local occupational health and safety regulations and the PPE guidance provided in the Mirka DEXOS 1217 manual and related safety information.

For tasks involving hazardous or sensitising dusts, the PPE level must be defined according to the specific substance and corresponding safety data sheets.
