-
Constructed with melt-blown synthetic media (polypropylene fibers) or, upon request, microfine glass fiber media
-
Expanded metal support grid with 95% open face area ensures strength without restricting airflow
-
Wedge-shaped pleats maximize media usage, dust holding capacity, and filter longevity
-
Moisture-resistant construction for reliable performance in variable environments
-
Frame options: box style, single header, or double header
Applications:
Rigid Cell Filters are designed for side-access or front-loading HVAC systems and serve as an ideal final stage in multistage filtration setups.
V-Bank Style Filters
Deep-Bed Design for Superior Performance
Our V-Bank filters are engineered to pack more media into the same footprint by using a multi-V pleated geometry. This maximizes the filtration surface area without significantly increasing the thickness of the housing. The result: higher dust holding capacity, lower pressure drop, and longer service life.
We offer 4V and 2V configurations, letting you choose the optimum balance of airflow and media volume for your HVAC or air-handling system.
Performance Options: 85% → 95% → 99%
You can specify efficiency levels based on your air quality goals:
-
~85% — Suitable for general commercial or light industrial use
-
~95% — Ideal for higher-grade applications like hospitals, labs, or food processing
-
~99% — Near-HEPA performance, for critical cleanrooms or ultra-sensitive environments
By offering this range, we let you match cost vs. performance based on the level of particulate control your facility demands.
Key Specifications
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Configurations | 4V or 2V pleat banks |
| Frame Types | Galvanized steel, aluminum, plastic, or rigid polymer |
| Media | Fiberglass, synthetic, or hybrid media blends |
| Sealing | High-integrity gasketing or frame gasketing to prevent bypass |
| Airflow | Designed for high airflow systems with low resistance |
Why Choose Our V-Bank Filters?
-
Lower energy use: Because of the expanded surface area, V-Bank filters often achieve target efficiency at lower pressure drop.
-
Longer service intervals: Greater media volume absorbs dust over a longer period before replacement.
-
Flexibility in design: Choose 2V or 4V configurations depending on your space and performance goals.
-
Scalable efficiency: From 85% to 99%, you can tailor performance to the environment (office, hospital, cleanroom).
-
Rigid construction: Our frames and gasketing systems are engineered for durability, easy installation, and leak-free operation.
Ideal Applications
-
Commercial buildings, corporate offices
-
Hospitals, clinics, pharmaceutical facilities
-
Laboratories and research institutions
-
Food and beverage processing plants
-
Cleanrooms and sensitive manufacturing environments
-
High-volume HVAC systems in large buildings
Technical and Performance Notes
-
Dust-holding capacity: The V-pleat geometry allows greater dust loading before reaching terminal pressure drop.
-
Air velocity compatibility: Suitable for both recirculation and supply air paths in large systems.
-
Leakage testing: Each filter unit is tested to ensure minimal bypass leakage.
-
Temperature and humidity tolerance: Material options available for demanding environmental conditions.
ASHRAE Cell Filters
