Specialized Air Filter Testing And Usage

By Frances Russell


Did you know that your air strainers could likely last a lot longer than they currently do? Many people seem to think that the lifetime of this type of product is a lot shorter, but when you consider how poorly most people are treating their air strainers during their use, this kind makes sense. The thing is, proper cleaning plays a huge role in determining how long your strainers are going to live. The following takes us through specialized air filter testing.

One way to make these assessments is to compare the performance standards of the different manufacturers' products according to the standards that apply via the International Standards Organization under which there are a series of standards covering compressed quality. There are nine areas of quality classification for the main contaminants as well as testing methods for them. The purity classifications dictate how much contamination is allowed.

Medias: All Medias are made from some form of synthetic fiber and most use a resin or adhesive to hold the fibers together. Some Medias that I prefer use a low melt process for the fibers to eliminate the need for resins, but almost all have resins. Newer pleated riddles that do not have metal on the back of the media for support must use huge amounts of resin to make the media stiff.

This makes it even more important to hire a good air strainer cleaning company. Preserving this special coating during the cleaning process is extremely important. The cleaning requires a careful approach to the as well as a lot of expertise in the field.

Strainers therefore need to be selected for the properties that best match the quality appearance needed to prevent downtime, systems breakdown or low productivity. Where impurities such as viruses, bacteria or possibly dust from insecticides present great danger, the selection of strainer and strainer material is of huge importance. The exact grade required differs therefore, according to the factors at play. Delivering dry, contaminant-free inflight allows more efficient, effective and economical operations. Damage occurs to plant and equipment when water, oil, gases and dust enter into systems such as pipelines and fittings; compressed inflight strainers and dryers can help eliminate the conditions for such damage.

Air fresheners: Did you know that many fresheners have Formaldehyde? If you see an air sifter with a built in air freshener or some type of scent, just walk away. They are not putting your safety first. It's just another marketing gimmick. I am sure you can find something safe like a scented oil to use in your system if you really need one.

And if you're satisfied with the services of the strainer cleaning company that you've chosen, you should definitely establish a longer-term relationship. By doing so, you will get the best that they can offer. Thus making the all process more efficient and reliable, moving from one company to another does not make the process reliable since the quality offered differs a great deal.

In conclusion, compressed in strainers have a wide range of applications. The selection process for the most suitable one will depend on the cost among other factors. These other factors include the contaminants to be removed, the inflight quality delivered, the operating environment, environmental impact, and the overall cost of operation over the lifetime of the product.
