Product Overview

The Koch Multi-Pleat XL8 is a medium efficiency
extended surface pleated panel filter, engineered to
provide higher initial efficiencies and overall superior
performance than standard pleated filters.
The Multi-Pleat XL8 carries a MERV 8 and MERV-A 8
performance rating in accordance with ASHRAE Test
Standard 52.2-2007.
The MERV 8 and MERV-A 8 performance rating provided
by the Multi-Pleat XL8 make the filter an excellent
upgrade from disposable filters and standard MERV
6 and 7 rated pleated filters. The Multi-Pleat XL8 is
the best selection in applications such as hospitals,
laboratories, pharmaceutical plants, commercial office
buildings, and in any system in which a higher degree of
indoor air quality is required.

Multi-Pleat XL8 Construction
Two Media Area Capacity Levels
The Multi-Pleat XL8 media is produced with an optimal
blend of highly specialized fibers, developed by Koch Filter
Corporation specifically for use in extended surface air filters.
Developed to deliver a “one of a kind” performance, this
specialized media operates on mechanical filtration principles
which provide high efficiency, low pressure drop and high
dust holding capacity.
The Koch Multi-Pleat XL8 maintains a MERV 8 performance
rating before and after conditioning steps when tested in
accordance to ASHRAE Test Standard 52.2-2007 and 52.2-
2007 Appendix J.
Rust resistant galvanized-
dipped expanded metal
support grid is totally
laminated to media to
insure even pleat spacing
and structural support.
100% mechanical media provides high
efficiency, excellent dust holding capacity
throughout the filter’s lifecycle.
Pleats are bonded to frame
to guarantee consistent
pleat configuration and
total media utilization.
Frame is double-walled
with reinforced corners
to insure rigidity in
the toughest
applications.
Moisture resistant beverage board frame maintains rigidity
even in high humidity environments.
The Multi-Pleat XL8 is an extremely versatile line of pleated panel filters which can be used in a wide variety of filtration systems worldwide.
In order to meet the different requirements found in these applications, Koch offers the XL8 Series in two media area capacity levels.
High Capacity - 30% more media
High Capacity XL8-HC filters are
similar in construction to the
Standard Capacity but have the added
advantage of approximately 30% more
media. The additional media results
in extended filter life, making the XL8-
HC the ideal filter for use in filtration
systems where filter change schedules
are predicated on recommended final
pressure drop readings.
Standard Capacity
Standard Capacity XL8-SC filters
provide a combination of efficiency,
economy, and excellent overall
performance. Standard Capacity
XL8 filters are an excellent choice
in applications where filter change
schedules are based on preventive
maintenance schedules.
