More about AAF Flanders PerfectPleat® Standard Capacity MERV 8 Filter - 20" x 24" x 2"
Designed to consistently increase efficiency throughout the service life of the filter, the 20" x 24" x 2" PerfectPleat Standard Capacity MERV 8 (SC M8) pleated panel filter is also environmentally friendly. it has an initial MERV 8 rating, but the efficiency increases significantly when dust loading begins.
PerfectPleat SC M8 filters have distinctive self-supporting characteristics that allow a pleating pattern, which promotes airflow and maximizes Dust Holding Capacity (DHC). This filter is best suited for standard capacity pleated panel filter applications, where pleated filters are currently in use. They can also be used to upgrade applications using panel filters.
The perimeter frame is constructed from the highest wet-strength 28 point beverage carrier board, securely bonded to the media pack. Support straps on the air entering side are used in combination with uniquely designed pleat stabilizers on the air leaving side of this 2" model to provide additional strength. The support straps and pleat stabilizers ensure integrity against turbulent airflow. This 2" filter resists crushing and abuse and provides excellent lateral stability for installation in side access systems.
Uniform size virgin fibers are assembled in closely controlled blends to create a media that is both self-supporting and consistent in performance. When pleated, DuraFlex® material will hold it's shape without the wire support characteristic of conventional pleated fibers. That means no potential for the formation of rust and safer handling. The superior resiliency of DuraFlex media means these filters can sustain significant abuse and maintain their shape and pleat spacing. The absence of wire also makes the filter totally incinerable, which can simplify disposal.
