Arctic Air Solutions Hepa filters
Arctic Air Solutions High Efficiency Particulate Air filters are made to industry standard EN 1822 and ISO 29463 using high quality filter media encased in very strong aluminium frames and sealed before being individually pressure tested to ensure zero leakage therefore enhancing the efficiency and producing filters that can withstand the harshest of operating conditions.
Hepa filters are fully tested with the latest testing methods and labeled with the filtration efficiency of 99.96% @ MPPS (most penetrating particle size) to comply with the latest ISO regulations, using pleated filter media ensures you receive a filter with the highest surface area possible achieving maximum filter life and are manufactured without the use of harmful chemical components, furthermore the filters are “A” + Eurovent performance energy rated which are independently certified to eliminate nutrition to bacteria or mould preventing formation on the very filter designed to protect your health.
HEPA filters are typically used where machine operators are working in hazardous dusts such as Asbestos, cement, Bio Mass fuel, coal dust, woodworking industry dusts, agricultural dusts, mining and rail track ballast dusts such as deadly carcinogenic respirable crystalline silica, large surface area panel filters ensures a long filter life when installed as part of a correctly installed pressurised filtration system, if you have requirements for operator protection against any hazardous dusts please contact us to discuss your needs by clicking on the button below.
PM 2.5
PM 2.5 is an abbreviation of particulate matter 2.5 currently being reported on news programmes and within governments environmental lobbies as one of the most hazardous substances causing air quality to deteriorate to such a low level that human health can suffer as a consequence.
PM 2.5 refers to the size of the particulate matter which is emitted from motor vehicles exhaust systems and in particular diesel powered variants therefore fueling the push for more electric vehicles to be built and sold. Other sources of PM 2.5 include but not limited to power plants, airplanes, residential wood burning, forest fires, agricultural burning, volcanic eruptions and dust storms.This particulate matter is so small it can travel deep into the human respiratory tract reaching the lungs and prolonged exposure can cause eye,nose,throat and lung irritation,coughing sneezing, runny nose and a shortness of breath. Long term exposure can effect lung function and worsen medical conditions such as asthma and heart disease.
PM 0.1
For many years the dangers of breathing particulate matter of 2.5 have been highlighted and so spare a thought for the operators of plant equipment working in hazardous dusts and gases where the particulate matter can be as small as 0.1 of a micron some twenty five times smaller than PM 2.5.
Arctic Air Solutions have been conscientiously installing hazardous air cab filtration overpressure systems to machinery filtering particulate matter down to 0.1 of a micron for many years.
Ensuring operator safety is paramount to our core values.
