The Patented fiber technology utilized in this filtration media is the latest in “Media Configuration.” The media is 100% polypropylene, gradient density, and non-shedding.  It is manufactured by building up progressively smaller and smaller continuous filament non-shedding fibers in a single thermally bonded web. Media fiber size varies from 40 plus microns in diameter on the air entering side to well into the sub-micron range on the air leaving side. This engineered media concept brings into play all the fundamental mechanical principles of particulate capture. Larger particles of dust are caught by larger fibers on the air entering side and progressively smaller particles caught in progressively smaller fibers through the depth of the media. The capture principals of impingement, straining, interception and diffusion are utilized in harmony.

We do not enhance our media with an electrostatic charge.   

The result of this “Media Configuration.” is a revolutionary synthetic, single-web, non-shedding media designed and engineered for exceptional performance.  Media that has exceptional efficiency and durability, is virtually waterproof, resistant to most chemicals, has low resistance to airflow, and excellent depth loading characteristics.   There are no binders used and therefore there is nothing in the media to promote microbial growth such as bacteria, mold, fungi, etc.

The pleat pack is fabricated from 100% polypropylene media. Continuous 100% polypropylene spacer beads are thermally bonded to both sides of the media. Spacer beads are 3/8 of an inch apart for media support and are color coded to identify efficiency grade. 

Pleat tips and spacer beads are thermally formed with controlled spacing to produce a strong aerodynamic shape. This controlled spacing promotes the diffusion of air properly over the entire face of the pleated surface.  Even airflow distribution permits the media to perform to it’s design potential with the principles of particle capture in harmony.

Frame material for the Synthetic Mini-pleat Panel filter is rigid polypropylene foam board.  It is waterproof, impact resistant, resistant to most chemicals, and will not rust or corrode.  The rigid foam board is formed into a U-channel and wrapped around the perimeter of the media pack.  Frame and media pack are bonded together with a thermo-plastic adhesive.  

Neither the adhesive or frame parts are affected by water and by nature do not support the growth of microbial organisms such as bacteria, mold, fungi, etc.

Frames are injection molded from 100% polypropylene.  They are water proof, impact resistant,  resistant to most chemicals, and will not rust or corrode.
