Camfil Clean Air Solutions Integrates Consumer Feedback Into Next Generation of HEPA Filtration Technology for Critical Processes
Riverdale, NJ — Clean air is essential for the safety and success of critical application processes in a variety of industries, including pharmaceuticals, microelectronics, healthcare, semiconductor, and food processing. In response to consumer feedback, air filtration company Camfil has announced the launch of the next generation of their Absolute VG high-efficiency particulate air filter (HEPA) to increase particle capture efficiency, lower energy consumption, and reduce the strain on maintenance costs associated with installing and maintaining HEPA filtration in critical process applications.
"Our next generation Absolute VG air filter provides dependable HEPA filtration for a lower total cost of ownership. It's superior frame design not only imparts incredible strength for a v-bank filter product, but it also lowers product weight to ease installation,” says Dan Meldrum, Clean Process Product Manager, “This unique combination of long product life, low weight, and reliability delivers long-awaited benefits to buyers, maintenance personnel, and quality control departments alike."
The updated technology brings a range of benefits to critical processes as compared to its predecessors and comparable units on the market, including:
-
Lower average pressure drop, leading to reduced energy consumption and reduced strain on fans and motors.
-
Half the weight of traditional metal-framed box-style HEPA filters.
-
High-capacity airflow of 2000 CFM as standard.
-
Longer periods between changes and lower disposal costs.
