Factors Governing Air Filter Testing

By Frances Russell


Did you know that your air strainers could likely last a lot longer than they currently do? Many people seem to think that the lifetime of this type of product is a lot shorter, but when you consider how poorly most people are treating their air strainers during their use, this kind makes sense. The thing is, proper cleaning plays a huge role in determining how long your strainers are going to live. The following takes us through specialized air filter testing.

Adhesives: Different glues and adhesives are chosen with no consideration to their chemical composition. These adhesives are chosen for their price, and drying time, quality of adhesion, there are several types of adhesives. Some are epoxy resins, others are hot melt adhesives, and some use cold glues and are vinyl based. Hot melt glues are extremely popular and are practically in every home.

These classifications are used by manufacturers to rate the air delivered by their products. In this way, users can easily compare and contrast the performance of different products. The caveat to this is that the test methods were originally developed to verify inflight quality in the system rather than testing the purification equipment which means that not all products are tested in the same way.

The selection of the correct in-flight strainer depends on specific parameters of use and location. Compressed air quality regulations are governed by the widespread and growing demands of industry. In manufacturing technology (for example, in food and beverage production, hospitals, electronics manufacturing or pharmaceuticals), quality of compressed air is relative to use and differs widely.

There exist variations in the quality and type of services offered in the cleaning market. Only reputable and experienced providers really know how to approach the cleaning process. They do so in a way that not leaves the strainer cleaned properly and retains its usefulness and doesn't cause any unnecessary damage.

Air fresheners: Did you know that many fresheners have Formaldehyde? If you see an air sifter with a built in air freshener or some type of scent, just walk away. They are not putting your safety first. It's just another marketing gimmick. I am sure you can find something safe like a scented oil to use in your system if you really need one.

Antimicrobial Chemicals: Antimicrobial agents are added to strainer Medias to prevent the growth of mold. Many suppliers nowadays market the product as "an EPA registered product". Well folks, EPA registered does not mean safe. They are registered with the EPA as pesticides! Don't use pesticides around kids, and certainly would not spray roach killer in my air conditioner and then stay in the house all day. If we want to avoid bacteria and mold, why not just change the filter more often? Really folks, pesticides? Who are these guys? If you see an antimicrobial filter, run away. There are some metals that can be used such as silver ions, so technologies are improving.

It's kind of hard to find good companies in this field nowadays, as this service has become so popular and the market for it has been suffering from a bit of an overcrowding lately. Just hire them for a test run if you're not sure what they can offer you, see how well they pull off the job, and if you're satisfied with that then work out the terms of a longer deal with them and see what they can offer you in terms of price and availability!
