  Supercharged Pleated Filters

Introduction
•tAirguard’s PowerGuard filters are medium-efficiency,
extended surface, pleated air filters.
•tSpecifically man­ ­ ac­ ured for system applications
uf t
requiring improved medium-ef­fi­ ien­ y, non-shedding
c c
filtration media.
•tOut­ er­ orms similar products with respect to initial
p f
ef­fi­ ien­ y, and av­ r­ ge ef­fi­ ien­ y providing optimum
c c
ea
c c
filter service life.
•tEffective in single filter applications or as improved
pre-filter substitutes for disposables, permanent metal
filters or media pad/frame filters.
•tIndustry applications: Pre-filtration for hospitals,
general health care facilities, food pro­ ess­ng
c i
plants, tele­ om­ u­ i­ a­ ions, pharmaceutical and
c m nc t
semi-conductor manufacturing, etc.
•tMERV 11 (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value)
based on ASHRAE Test Standard 52.2-2012.
Media and Support
•tSynthetic media made up of continuous hydrophobic
fibers which do not absorb moisture and can
withstand turbulent, high velocity conditions.
•tFibers are needed to eliminate the need for chemical
binders that could promote mi­ ro­ i­ l growth or
c ba
generate VOCs.
•tImproved overall particle size efficiency due to con­
tin­ ­ us fiber structure and dual-stage electrostatic
uo
enhancement which captures an increased amount of
smaller par­ ic­ ­ate than con­ en­ ion­ l glass media.

•tMedia support: Continuously bonded to a corrosion
resistant, expanded metal grid allowing a 96% open
face area.
•tPleat configuration: Formed into aerodynamic, semitapered, wedge-shaped pleats expanding its capability
to capture con­ am­­ ants.

Construction Features
•tFrame: Enclosed in a two-piece, high wet-strength
beverage board frame. ­
•tAssembly: A fully bonded double-wall frame combines
with the integral corner flaps and forms a rugged,
durable filter which will not rack, warp or leak under
normal operating conditions.
• To ensure no dirty air bypass, the media pack is
securely bonded to the periphery of the frame with
solvent-free, water-based glue.
•tUL Classification: Classified per UL Standard 900 for
flammability.
•tIn 4” models, accurate pleat alignment is maintained
by die-cut pleat spacers on the upstream side.
•tMaximum operating tem­ er­ ­ ure: ≤200ºF.
