HEPA Filter: Methods of Collecting Micron Particles
Air Filtration is essential, whether it is for occupational safety requirements, environmental or home health concerns. Airborne particles in surroundings makes difficult to manufacture quality products, protect employees from hazardous materials or prevent health problems from longtime exposure to allergic particles. To get fresh and clean air, HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are used. HEPA filters are designed to remove extremely small particles from the air.
Features of HEPA Filter
- These filters are very effective on sub –micron particles as they are efficient at the 0.3 micron particle size.
- They are easy to install in vacuum cleaners
- Different Varieties of HEPA filter is available to remove the different size of micron particle.
HEPA filters have different methods of collecting micron particles from which some are discussed below:
- Interception: Under this method, micron particles are collected whenever they touch a fiber as they travel across the media.
- Inertial Impaction: Particles are collected as they travel in a straight path and collide with fiber. In this case, air continues to flow around the fiber.
- Diffusion: The particles are collected when they travel from areas of high air-flow to areas of low air-flow, where other particles are already collected.
- Electrostatics: Under this method, a negatively charged particle attached to a positively charged fiber, causing the particle to attach to the fiber as it travels across the media.
- Sieving: Some particles are too large to pass between fibers and get trapped by them.
- Gravity: Some particles naturally fall onto fibers and get trapped by them.
HEPA filter’s quality basically depends upon the HEPA Filter Manufacturing Machines as they fabricate the different types of machines with varied technologies and different quality of spare parts and its components. So before buying HEPA Filter, you must consider the type of Filter Manufacturing Machine or if you don’t have proper knowledge about it, you can take expert advice.
