June 24, 2005—Camfil Farr has introduced a V-bank air filter that combines energy savings and economy with an all-plastic holding frame, the company says. Containing about 100 square feet of media, the new Durafil 2V has an exclusive pleat-in-pleat design that offers high dust-holding capacity, long life and low average pressure drop. It offers a more economical alternative to high-area mini-pleat filters, while still delivering all the energy efficiency associated with V-style rigid filters, the company says.
The enclosing frame and media supports are of lightweight, high-impact plastic for ease of shipping and handling. Applications include variable air volume (VAV) systems, or any commercial, medical/health care or industrial environment where high performance and product integrity are needed.
The Durafil 2V filter comes in three high efficiencies: MERV 11, 13, and 14 based on ASHRAE 52.2 (60-65 percent, 80-85 percent, and 90-95 percent, based on ASHRAE 52.1 Dust Spot). The water-resistant, microfine glass media maintains efficiency throughout its service life for optimum performance and reliability. A unique sealant channel that ensures media pack-to-frame bonding prevents air bypass, for added integrity, says Camfil Farr.
