The Basic Functions of Industrial Air Filters
Industrial air filters require dedusting, cooling, and dehumidification. They may also require dedusting, cooling, or dehumidification. Once inside the system, waste gases pass through layers of filter material inoculated with microorganisms. The strains of bacteria used to filter different components depend on the type of pollution removed.
MERV ratings
MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) is a standard system for determining air filter efficiency. The lower number, the less efficient filter is. Increasing the MERV value allows filters to trap smaller particles. These filters can capture larger particles, but they can also trap smaller ones.
When selecting a filter for a process environment, look for the highest MERV rating. Higher MERV ratings can help improve the quality of indoor air. The highest MERV rating available is 13, used in hospitals and other medical facilities. While the higher MERV rating may be better for specific environments, it is not always necessary.
