The Airguard® DP® Pleat - standard size 1-in. filter is an extended-surface, synthetic, pleated filter that provides low pressure drop and high dust holding. The DP Pleat is designed with a consistent pleat shape on predetermined centers, causing dirt to collect evenly over the entire surface of the media. This technology results in a slow, steady rise in resistance for maximum dust-holding capacity.
Features/Benefits:
• Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) 8 and MERV-A 8-A efficiency rating
• Low initial resistance for energy savings; DP = 0.14-in. water gauge
• Extremely high dust loading
• Exceeds American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers Standard 52.2 air cleaning specifications for filters installed upstream of cooling coils
• 100-percent thermally bonded, synthetic, proprietary media to resist moisture, delaminating, excessive buckling, collapsing, warping, and bending
• Mechanical efficiency – achieves MERV 8 rating before and after a conditioning step
• Die-cut pattern providing 50 percent more contact points between media pack and frame
• Integral die-cut cross members for strength and rigidity
• Galvanized steel metal grid to resist rust, maintain pleat shape, and prevent fluttering
• 1-in. depth
• 14 pleats per foot
Applications:
• Any application or air handling system
• Built-up filter banks, central station air handlers, rooftop units, and side access housings
• Final filters for MERV 8 requirements
• Pre-filters in multi-stage systems
