Atlas Air Filter 1630000329 for Compressors 99% Efficiency

An Air Filter is a vital device designed to remove airborne contaminants such as dust, pollen, mold spores, bacteria, oil mist, and other particulate matter from an air stream. It serves as the primary defense for both mechanical systems and protected environments, ensuring clean air for processes, equipment, and personnel. By capturing harmful particles, it protects sensitive components, improves air quality, and safeguards health and product integrity.

• High Filtration Efficiency: Engineered to capture a high percentage of particles of a specific size, as defined by its MPPS (Most Penetrating Particle Size) rating and MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) or HEPA classification.
• Low Pressure Drop: Designed with optimized media pleating and construction to provide maximum airflow with minimal resistance.
• High Dirt Holding Capacity: Constructed with extensive media surface area to retain a large volume of contaminant before requiring replacement.
• Robust Construction & Material Variety: Built from materials selected for the application:
  • Media: Synthetic (e.g., polyester, polypropylene), Fiberglass, PTFE membrane, or Activated Carbon
  • Frame: Sturdy cardboard, galvanized steel, or aluminum for stability and durability
  • Gaskets: Polyurethane or closed-cell foam to ensure a leak-tight seal
• Wide Range of Types & Classes: Available for every application need:
  • Panel/Furnace Filters for basic HVAC protection
  • Pleated Bag Filters for commercial HVAC
  • HEPA/ULPA Filters for critical environments
  • Compact/Industrial Cartridge Filters for compressed air systems
  • Activated Carbon Filters for odor removal
• Fire Retardancy & Safety: Many filters are treated to be fire-retardant, meeting critical safety standards.

1. Contaminated Air Entry: Unfiltered air is drawn or forced into the filter.
2. Particle Capture: As air passes through the fibrous media, particles are captured through four primary mechanisms:
   • Straining: Large particles trapped on the surface
   • Interception: Mid-sized particles adhere to fibers
   • Impaction: Heavy particles collide with fibers
   • Diffusion: Microscopic particles bounce randomly and collide
3. Clean Air Exit: The purified air exits the filter.
4. Contaminant Retention: Captured particles are retained until replacement.
