There’s more to selecting the right wire filtration mesh than its micron retention rating. Filtration designers would love to depend on certain known quantities from which to start a new filter product design. Unfortunately, wire mesh is not one of them. The qualities of wire mesh often defy the typical physical qualities that more compliant […]
The Importance of a Quality Assurance/Quality Control Program When Purchasing Fabric Filters The value of fabric and bag Quality Assurance/Quality Control program, bag installation oversight, and bag monitoring program increases as the code requirements become more stringent. The intrinsic value of the QA/QC program is driven by the fact that the failure of even one […]
While the pandemic granted air quality tremendous attention, air filter selection and installation in HVAC systems remain on the back burner. Filtration systems installed in smart cities to provide a built environment that is clean and green still need the charm and leadership required to make air quality a global priority. The time to halt […]
Nonwovens are commonly used as filtration media. Nonwoven filter media is an engineered fabric comprised of a random arrangement of filaments or fibers. The media has the specific function of filtering or separating components of a fluid (air/gas or liquid) or to act in combination as a prefilter or support for other materials in the […]
There are three primary property considerations of fibers for filtration performance — the choice of fibers, the process of producing the media and the final application. When it comes to performance, the fundamental fiber properties are those that are designed to optimize volume, air permeability, and the pore size of the material. Volume and air permeability work […]
