Flame retardant, conductive properties in HemiPleat filter

The new "two-in-one" conductive/flame retardant filters offer high efficiency, energy-efficient performance and long service life and allow the use of dry media type dust collectors in applications where they otherwise could not have been used.

HemiPleat is specially designed for dust handling applications that require both flame resistance as well as dissipation of static charges – which includes many metal dusts, PVC or composite dusts, fumed silica dust, pharmaceutical dusts, plastic and carbon black/toner dusts. 

“The cartridge filters are especially suited to explosive dust applications, making it possible to conform to national fire protection association (NFPA) and atmospheres explosibles (ATEX) requirements and lessen the risk of ignition sources due to static electricity charges,” the release said.

HemiPleat are available in a choice of two media types, i.e. the standard HemiPleat open-pleat high efficiency media, or the HemiPleat eXtreme nano fiber media which offers a MERV 15 efficiency rating (minimum efficiency reporting value) and enhanced performance on difficult dust or fume applications and highly explosive processes.
