General

Pre Pleat with activated carbon works almost like

an odor “sponge.” This versatile filter is an excel-

lent choice in commercial/industrial settings for

remediation of minor odor problems.

This filter combines the low resistance, high dust

holding capacity of a pleated filter with the odor

removing abilities of activated carbon. The base

filtration medium is polyester synthetic fiber. It has

a generous 100% add-on of activated carbon by

weight. (Weight of activated carbon equals the

weight of the media to which it is adhered.) As odor

producing gases come in contact with the activated

carbon in the filter, they are adsorbed...trapped and

held in millions of microscopic carbon pores.

Construction

The filter medium is comprised of a polyester

synthetic fiber felt with an add-on of powdered,

activated carbon. This medium is adhered with

hot-melt adhesive to an expanded metal backing,

then folded into an accordian pleat arrangement.

This media pack is encased and sealed within a

moisture resistant kraft board frame.

Activity Level

Ability of activated carbon to catch and hold a gas

or vapor is referred to as its level of “activity.” The

higher the activity level, the higher its adsorption

level. The activated carbon used in the in this filter

is a coconut shell material with an activity level of

60% or more when subjected to the most common

test, using carbon tetrachloride.

However, the effectiveness of activated carbon

will actually vary considerably depending upon

the odor or vapor to be removed. Typically, the

adsorptive capacity of activated carbon is higher

for those adsorbates with higher molecular weights

and boiling points. A chart on the back side of this

sheet lists activated carbon’s typical effectiveness

on various substances with a ranking from 1 (low

effectiveness) to 4 (high, typically adsorbs to level

of 20% or more of the carbon’s weight).

The effective life of activated carbon depends upon

the type and quantity of substances to be adsorbed

and their dwell time in contact with the activated

carbon.
