3M Privacy Filter for 24in Full Screen Monitor with 3M COMPLY Magnetic Attach, 16:9, PF240W9EM

Protect sensitive information without slowing your workflow with the 3M COMPLY Magnetic Attach Privacy Filter designed specifically for 24-inch, 16:9 full-screen monitors. This PF240W9EM model brings together world-class privacy technology and a revolutionary magnetic attachment system, so you can effortlessly switch between private viewing and open screen sharing in seconds. The ultra-strong rare-earth magnets click the filter securely into place, delivering a clean, secure, and professional solution for today’s hybrid and desk-sharing environments.

In an era where meetings move from in-person collaboration to remote video calls in the blink of an eye, privacy needs to be both reliable and user-friendly. The PF240W9EM privacy filter keeps confidential data protected from side-angle viewing, reducing the risk of visual eavesdropping in busy offices, open workspaces, and shared desks. Simultaneously, it preserves the clarity, color accuracy, and legibility of your on-screen content when viewed directly from the front. The 24" size and 16:9 aspect ratio align with a wide range of modern displays, making this filter a versatile upgrade for corporate workstations, home offices, government and healthcare environments, or any setting where privacy is a priority.

The magnetic attach system is at the heart of this product’s appeal. COMPLY Magnetic Attach uses precision-engineered magnets to ensure fast, tool-free attachment and detachment. There’s no need for screws, brackets, or clips; simply hover the filter near the screen and let the magnets guide and secure it into alignment. The result is a streamlined user experience that reduces downtime, simplifies IT provisioning, and supports a privacy-first mindset across teams. The rugged construction is designed to withstand daily attach/detach cycles, making it a practical long-term investment for busy workplaces that require reliable security without the friction of traditional privacy filters.

Beyond privacy, the 3M PF240W9EM offers glare reduction and improved viewing comfort. Ambient light and reflections can cause eye strain over extended work sessions, especially during late-night conferences or under bright office lighting. The anti-glare properties of the filter help minimize reflections, delivering crisper text and more comfortable viewing even in challenging lighting conditions. This translates into fewer eye-fatigue complaints, longer sustained focus, and a more productive workday—whether you’re preparing sensitive financial reports, reviewing medical records, or reviewing critical legal documents.

Because it’s designed to be visually unobtrusive, the privacy filter preserves the user experience. It maintains an accurate color representation and sharp detail when viewed head-on, ensuring that everyday tasks—such as reading spreadsheets, editing documents, or analyzing design work—remain clear and faithful to the original content. When privacy is not required, you can quickly toggle to full-screen sharing with your colleagues or clients, enabling productive collaboration without the need to remove the filter or disrupt your setup. The PF240W9EM is an ideal companion for hot-desking, shared workstations, or open-plan offices where security and collaboration must coexist harmoniously.

Construction and design are focused on minimal footprint and maximum practicality. The filter is slim and lightweight, designed to slide into place alongside most monitor stands and mounting configurations. Its edge-to-edge coverage ensures that privacy protection spans the entire active display area without overhang or light leakage around the bezel. The material choice balances optical performance with durability, providing a dependable shield against prying eyes while withstanding daily handling and routine cleaning. This mix of smart engineering and user-friendly features makes it a compelling choice for organizations prioritizing data protection, compliance, and user productivity.

• Instant privacy with a click: The 3M COMPLY Magnetic Attach mechanism lets you switch between private viewing and open sharing in seconds. Ultra-strong magnets securely snap the filter into place, ensuring it stays aligned during routine tasks, video conferences, and collaborative sessions. The ability to quickly toggle privacy supports secure discussions in shared workspaces and open-plan offices without interrupting your workflow.
• Fast, tool-free attachment: No tools, no screws, no complicated installation. The PF240W9EM is designed to attach cleanly to 24" full-screen monitors with standard bezels, delivering a secure fit that doesn’t interfere with monitor controls or mounting hardware. This makes it a practical upgrade for IT teams deploying privacy across multiple workstations or for individuals seeking a straightforward privacy enhancement.
• Rare-earth magnet strength for reliable performance: The proprietary magnet system provides strong retention for daily use while still allowing easy removal when needed. It resists accidental detachment during desk activities, yet can be detached effortlessly during meetings or screen-sharing sessions. Repeated attach/detach cycles retain holding power, ensuring long-term reliability in busy environments.
• High-quality privacy technology with minimal color distortion: 3M’s privacy solution protects against side-angle viewing while preserving front-on clarity. Content remains legible and color-accurate when viewed directly, making it suitable for data-intensive tasks like spreadsheets, dashboards, and design work. Some off-axis dimming is expected as part of the privacy effect, but it does not compromise the user’s ability to interpret on-screen information from the intended vantage point.
• Glare reduction and improved viewing comfort: By mitigating reflections from overhead lights and ambient glare, the privacy filter enhances readability and reduces eye strain during long workdays. The improved comfort supports sustained focus during data reviews, code work, or creative tasks that require long sessions in front of a monitor.
