Tested Performance

In a controlled Variable Environmental Simulation Analysis (VESA) test, the spunbond media was tested against traditional 16 oz/yd2 (542 g/m2) polyester felt media and 16 oz/yd2 polyester media laminated with BHA-TEX® expanded PTFE membrane.

Criteria:
  • Air-to-cloth ratio: 5:1 ft/min (1.5 m/min)
  • Mean particle size: 0.5 micron
  • Inlet dust loading: 30 grains/ACF (69 g/m2)
  • Pulse cleaning: 80 PSI (5.5. bar)
  • Frequency and duration: 15-minute intervals for 50 hours
