Eagle model • SDD

Eagle SDD Filter Program

Ceiling diffusion pads, AMU prefilters, and side-wall exhaust arrestor for Eagle's pitless side-downdraft, matched from a three-catalog cross-reference.

Side-downdraft is the layout shops choose when they want downdraft-style capture without excavating a pit. On the SDD, air still washes down over the vehicle from the ceiling, but instead of disappearing through the floor it turns at ground level and exits through arrestor grids running along both lower side walls. That turn zone, low on the vehicle sides and rockers, is where capture is most sensitive to filter condition and where loaded exhaust pads show up first as overspray drift on lower panels. Keep the side grids fresh and an SDD sprays remarkably clean for a booth that sits on a flat slab.

Quick answer

The Eagle SDD is a side-downdraft spray booth: air enters through a filtered ceiling and exhausts through grids along the lower side walls instead of a floor pit. Catalogs document a four-panel ceiling at 48" x 57.5" polyester diffusion media, pocket bag and 3-ply link prefilters for the make-up air unit, and 15 gram fiberglass arrestor pads at 20" x 20" for the exhaust grids. The record comes from an AFT, Viledon, and Viskon-Aire cross-reference and is catalog-discovered, so run a fitment check to confirm your grid counts before bulk ordering.

How SDD shops choose filters

Intake ceiling. Four diffusion panels, documented at 48" x 57.5" (polyester ceiling pad, SKU 700-282) with a Filtrair FF560GX 48" x 56" alternative (SKU 0256048564) in the same slot family. These panels set finish quality; run tacky-side-down media discipline and change them as a set.

Make-up air. The AMU stage is documented with a pocket bag prefilter at 20" x 50" (SKU 154-070) and non-tacky 3-ply link prefilters at 20" x 50" (SKU 01625205010) and 25" x 60" (SKU 0162525608). This stage is cheap insurance for the ceiling media downstream of it, so do not stretch it.

Exhaust side. The side-wall grids take 15 gram fiberglass paint arrestor pads at 20" x 20" (SKU 14AGP202050). Because the SDD splits its exhaust across two walls, the pad count is typically higher than a shop expects, and the pads nearest the turn zone load fastest. Change both walls as one set; a fresh wall opposite a loaded wall pulls the spray pattern sideways.

Every size above comes from catalog cross-reference rather than a field measurement of your booth, so treat the first order as the verification pass: count grid openings on both walls, measure one ceiling frame, and the record is locked from then on.

Regulatory landscape

The regulatory frame does not care that the exhaust is in the walls instead of the floor. EPA 6H still requires refinish spraying in a filtered, maintained booth with records. OSHA 1910.94(c) still requires ventilation that captures overspray at design airflow, which on an SDD means both side grids passing air evenly. NFPA 33 still treats the arrestor pads and any residue around the grid frames as combustible deposits. The side-downdraft wrinkle is symmetry: an inspector watching smoke drift toward one wall because the other is blinded is looking at a ventilation deficiency, so log both walls' changes together.

Who runs the SDD

The SDD suits shops that could not, or chose not to, cut concrete. Collision shops in leased buildings where a pit was never an option and the SDD delivered downdraft-class results on a slab. Shops on high water tables or over unknown slab conditions, common in older industrial buildings, where trenching was ruled out early. And growing operations adding a second booth into an existing bay, where the SDD's above-grade installation kept the project a construction weekend instead of a construction season.

SDD filter FAQs

What makes SDD filter maintenance different from a regular downdraft?

The exhaust media lives in the lower side walls, not a floor pit, so changes happen standing up and the pad count is split across two grids. The maintenance rule that matters most is balance: change both walls at the same time so exhaust pull stays symmetrical across the vehicle.

Which filters does the Eagle SDD ceiling take?

Catalogs document four polyester diffusion panels at 48" x 57.5" (SKU 700-282), with a 48" x 56" Filtrair FF560GX (SKU 0256048564) documented in the same slot family. Measure one frame opening before the first order to settle the trim, then reorder on cadence.

My lower panels are picking up overspray haze. Filters?

On a side-downdraft, that is the classic sign of loaded exhaust pads. The air turn at floor level weakens first when the side grids blind, and overspray lingers around rockers and lower doors. Change the full pad set on both walls and the pattern usually snaps back; if it does not, the booth needs a mechanical airflow check.

Can I use downdraft (DSD) filter sizes on my SDD?

The documented ceiling sizes match across the two Eagle models, but the exhaust arrangements differ and the AMU prefilter sizes documented for each are not identical. Order against the SDD record, and if you run both booths, keep the two change logs separate so counts do not drift.

What does the verification banner on this page mean?

It means the fitment was assembled by cross-referencing three filter catalogs (AFT, Viledon, Viskon-Aire) and has not yet been confirmed by a field measurement of an SDD. The sizes agree across sources. One fitment check with your grid counts upgrades the record for good.
