Choosing the Right Industrial, HVAC, Commercial Air Filters
Hospitals, schools, pharmaceutical and microelectronics manufacturers, etc., require air filtration that protects occupants and the surrounding environment from airborne contaminants like gases, vapors, and aerosols (particulates). Radiological and biological contaminants, which can be gases or aerosols, may also need to be considered.
For example, sorbents collect gas and vapors but do not collect aerosols. Lower-efficiency particulate filters capture larger aerosols, but the smallest are only captured through a high-efficiency commercial air filter. Advanced Filtration Concepts (AFC) carries a full line of high-efficiency HVAC industrial air filters, designed to filter the air in a variety of industrial settings.
Industrial HVAC Commercial Air Filter Installation Considerations
Industrial, HVAC, and commercial air filter installation solutions should include analyses for appropriate air filter selection, zero filter bypass, building envelope characteristics, and maximum cost-effectiveness.
With over 30 years of cumulative experience in the air filtration industry, AFC provides turnkey installation and servicing of industrial, commercial HVAC air filters for hospitals and medical facilities, hotels and casinos, industrial manufacturers, as well as similar industrial facilities. AFC carries, services, and installs a wide variety of industrial air filter designs all created for high efficiency while maintaining optimal performance.
Our turnkey installation solutions provide for analysis of your commercial facility and its unique air filtration requirements. Our experienced team of engineers and technicians stand ready to serve you and advise you on commercial air filter mechanisms and all aspects of selecting and installing industrial air filters.
When installing your air filters, AFC will explain the full lifecycle cost of your industrial air filter, including operational, maintenance, and replacement expenses for your filters. Any increases in filtration costs are often offset by the accumulated benefits of more efficient filtration, lower compliance issues, and improved indoor air quality.
AFC will systematically install filters as needed, removing and disposing of air filters in accordance with current regulations. Upon replacement, we ensure proper filter selection and a perfect installation, prolonging the lives of your filters and systems.
Choosing the Right G.T. Inlet Filters for Gas Turbine Power Plants
Choosing the right inlet air filter can seem like a balancing act between efficiency and pressure loss. Studies have shown, though, that degradation of gas turbine power occurs more slowly with high-efficiency inlet air filters than when inlet air quality is low, such as when lower-efficiency filters are employed or when no inlet air filtration exists.
Proper inlet air filter selection and correct installation are critical to maintaining the efficiency of your gas turbine power plant. Unfiltered contaminants and improperly installed inlet air filters affect your system’s internal parts. Unfiltered moisture and particles cause erosion, fouling, foreign object damage (FOD), cooling passage plugging, hot and cold corrosion, and particle fusion, resulting in increased maintenance and premature parts or system replacement.
Importance of Proper Installation of G.T. Inlet Air Filters
The location of your plant and the surrounding environment, including the phase, size, composition, and concentration of contaminants, is the most important consideration when installing an inlet air filter. Additional considerations include the velocity of the inlet air and contaminants through the filter media, ensuring that the packing density of this filter media, fiber size, and filtering mechanisms are appropriate for your facility.
Advanced Filtration Concepts’ turnkey gas turbine power plant inlet air filter installation solutions consider your facility’s unique environment and operating conditions, performance and media needs, and turbine design. We also take into account your cost, scheduling, and legal obligations. Additionally, we evaluate future for your facility, such as planned installation of an air intake cooling system.
