Typical HVAC System and Its Application

To ensure proper protection of people's health, air filters in HVAC systems need to operate at higher efficiency. Therefore, it is particularly important that filters at all levels and their filter materials comply with relevant standards and guidelines in this regard. The filters and their materials used in the system must ensure that the levels of indoor dust, bacteria, fungi, and biological components do not exceed those in the outdoor air.

To achieve the required indoor air quality, our multi-stage filter material solutions have been developed. Regarding medium efficiency filter fabric, we have multiple products for different application environments. As the medium efficiency filtration stage in HVAC systems, it is mainly used to remove 1–5 μm dust particles and various suspended matters.

Professional Advice

When selecting filter material for medium efficiency filters, multiple factors need to be considered to ensure their filtration efficiency and applicability. To ensure you can quickly choose the most suitable medium efficiency filter material, our team provides you with full-process technical guidance and recommends suitable products based on your specific needs.

  • Firstly, the filtration grade of medium efficiency filter material required varies with different working environments. For example, in a general environment, conventional medium efficiency filter fabric can be used; Hospitals and laboratories with high cleanliness requirements need ultra-fine fiber medium efficiency filter fabric.
  • In environments with high dust concentrations, choose more durable and higher efficiency filter fabric, such as multi-layer composite filter cloth, to extend service life and improve filtration efficiency. Conversely, single-layer or economical filter cloth can be used.
  • In environments with high humidity, high temperature, or corrosive chemicals, medium efficiency filter fabric with special treatments, such as waterproof, flame retardant, and corrosion-resistant properties, is required.
