HemiPleat Nano dust collector filter

The new HemiPleat Nano dust collector filter is said to provide higher filtration efficiencies, longer service life, and lower pressure drop compared to competitive nanofiber filters. The product line is available in minimum efficiency rating value (MERV)-14 and MERV-16 efficiency options — higher than most competitive filters. A new technology is used to apply a thick layer of highly durable nanofibers to the surface of the patented HemiPleat open-pleat filter design. Open-pleat spacing allows for better utilization of the media pack, improving air flow through the cartridge. Dust buildup is released easily during pulse cleaning, reducing compressed-air (and hence energy) requirements. The filter is suitable for use with hard-to-handle dusts, such as those produced in laser and plasma cutting, welding and thermal-spray applications, and it is designed to withstand rigorous pulse cleaning for all types of dry dust applications. An optional fire-retardant cellulose-blend base material is available.
