Pocket filter PFN made of NanoWave® medium as prefilters or final filters for the separation of fine dust in ventilation and air conditioning systems. Wedge-shaped filter pockets ensure ideal airflow conditions. Highest possible dust holding capacity with an extremely low initial differential pressure due to a multi-layer filter medium with a prefilter layer and a layer of corrugated extra fine fibres. Pocket filters made of NanoWave® medium are available in standard sizes with variable numbers of pockets and pocket depth, filter groups ePM10 and ePM1 according to ISO 16890. Pocket filters made of NanoWave® medium are Eurovent-certified and compliant with VDI 6022 in terms of hygiene. The PFN-EX pocket filters with optional EX protection may be used in areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere of zones 1 and 2, as well as zones 21 and 22 (EX II 2G Ex h IIC Gb and EX II 2D Ex h IIIB Db). It is mandatory to connect the filters to the earth potential. All conductive and dissipative parts must be connected together and grounded. Conductive dusts are excluded from the application. Under no circumstances should metallic foreign materials enter the filter.
Ambient temperature range: -40 °F ≤ Ta ≤ +176 °F

Materials and surfaces

  • Filter media made of synthetic fibres in corrugated structure
  • Frame made of plastic or galvanised sheet steel

 

Construction

  • PLA: Frame made of plastic
  • GAL: Frame made of galvanised steel
  • EX: Protection zones 1 and 2, as well as 21 and 22 (only in combination with GAL)
