High Efficiency PTFE Filters
• Lower energy consumption — greater than
40% lower resistance
• AAF Helior PTFE media combines ultra-high efficiency
with lowest pressure drop
• Highly resistant to corrosive environments (acids,
alkalis, and organic substances)
• Negligible off-gassing properties (boron, sodium,
potassium, silicon)
• High tensile strength media, more resistant to rough
handling in transportation and installation
• Withstands pressure up to 20 in. w.g. (5,000 Pa)
• 99.99% minimum efficiency @ 0.3 µm

MEGAcel I HEPA filters are designed to meet the demanding
airflow and efficiency requirements of critical applications in which
airborne contaminants must be carefully controlled. Manufactured
with high-performance Helior media and unique tapered aluminum
separators, MEGAcel I filters optimize efficiency while keeping
operating costs to a minimum.

State-of-the-Art Design
Designed to combine maximum efficiency with lowest pressure
drop, the MEGAcel I filter media pack is available in different
depth, size, and cell-side configurations, allowing for a variety
of application requirements including:
Healthcare

Perfect Filter Media
Compared with micro-fiberglass media, Helior media provides
superior benefits including inert chemical properties, more uniform
fiber distribution, smaller fiber diameters, and smaller pore size.
As a result, reduced resistance and higher filtration performance
provide substantial energy savings.

Electronic

PTFE pleat pack resistance is a minimum of 40% lower than
conventional micro-fiberglass media, a significant factor contributing
to greatly reducing fan energy consumption. AAF Helior media
combined with tapered aluminum separators optimizes pleat pack
resistance. With a reduction in fan energy consumption, overall
energy savings can be realized.

Developed by AAF Engineers: Helior ® PTFE Media
Groundbreaking Helior PTFE media technology was engineered
by AAF's research and design teams. Media production, testing, and
packaging are all performed in AAF's (ISO 7) ultra-modern controlled
environment, eliminating the potential for contamination of the filter
during manufacturing.
