Results: The detailed findings are summarized on pages 4 through 13.
The results apply to the tested filter only at the test conditions mentioned
above. Filtration performance data of related filters of the same design and
media will be similar. Filtration performance under certain application
conditions cannot necessarily be predicted from these data.
According to the classification requirements described in ISO 16890-1 the filter element complies
with the grade ISO ePM10 80% at a nominal air flow of 3400 m³/h (media velocity of 62,0 cm/s).
The net effective filtering area of 1,5 m² was calculated using the following measured
approximate dimensions:
Note: This calculated value can differ from the total used media area as calculated by the
manufacturer of the filter. Also for example small variations in the pleat height can cause some
percental difference.
Effective width of pleats: 584 mm

Effective number of pleats: 29
Pleat height: 45 mm
