PM1 filtration today
Filters are like workhorses in ventilation
systems and current F7 filters
have varying efficiencies to capture
PM1 (typically 50-75%).
With filters significantly influencing
indoor air quality (IAQ), it will be
increasingly important to choose the
right filter and efficiency for the targeted
particulate matter. This is not
easy today because current regional
standards apply different filter testing
and classification methods, preventing
proper product comparisons.
Current standards are also known to
have limitations and generate results
that are sometimes far from filter
performance in service.
In addition to selecting the right
particle efficiency, there are other important
product features to consider,
such as long life, low pressure drop
and low energy consumption. In addition
to their high efficiency, Camfil
filters are recognized “energy heroes”
because they save many kilowatt
hours of electricity, as documented in
thousands of customer cases. When
building owners purchase quality
filters like Camfil’s for high IAQ, they
also benefit by getting the lowest total
cost of ownership for their filtration
solution.
Your nearest Camfil company or representative
will be glad to advise you
on the right filters for your building
and location. For added indoor air
filtration in polluted urban environments,
Camfil also offers advanced
room-air purifiers for both particle
and molecular filtration. The latter
are being increasingly used in offices
and retail stores in large international
cities with air pollution issues.
