AstroCel I

AstroCel R I filters with InterseptR antimicrobial are designed specifically to improve Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). Air filters are designed to trap and concentrate particulate air contaminants including viable fungal and bacterial spores. The presence of Intersept R antimicrobial in the filter media is intended to preserve the integrity of the media throughout the useful life of the filter. Antimicrobial preservatives are not meant to increase the efficiency of the filter, nor to kill microorganisms “on the fly” as they pass through a filter. Intersept R is EPA registered and environmentally safe.

HEPA and ULPA filters

Are the most efficient air filters commercially available. Originally developed for the Atomic Energy Commission, they have broad application in cleanrooms and other areas requiring the very highest levels of contamination control:

Semiconductor manufacturing

Electronics

Pharmaceutical processing

Nuclear power stations

Department of Defense installations

Department of Energy installations

Photo film manufacturing/processing

Hospitals

Laboratories

Food processing

Asbestos abatement

AAF HEPA and ULPA filter products feature a broader selection of efficiencies, cell side materials and configurations, and separator designs and bonds than any other manufacturer.

AstroCel filters are available to meet all performance classes per the Institute of Environmental Sciences IES RP-1:

Type A – Minimum efficiency of 99.97% on 0.3 μm at rated flow.

Type B – Minimum efficiency of 99.97% on 0.3 μm at 100% and 20% of rated flow.

Type C – Minimum efficiency of 99.99% on 0.3 μm and scan tested.

Type D – Minimum efficiency of 99.999% on 0.3 μm and scan tested.

Type E – Constructed and tested in accordance with MIL-F-51477 or MIL-F-51068.

Type F – Minimum efficiency of 99.999% on 0.1 to 0.2 μm and scan tested.

The Industry’s Widest Selection of HEPA and ULPA Filters

GUARANTEED PERFORMANCE

Every AstroCel filter is individually tested before it leaves the factory for your assurance that it meets rated efficiency. The penetration and actual resistance at test airflow rate are indicated on the label. Each filter is also assigned a serial number and a permanent record is kept of the materials of construction and performance.

SAVE ON NEW ASTROCEL HCX INSTALLATIONS

Fewer filters required

Less space required for filter bank

No transitions

Faster installation

SAVE ON REPLACEMENTS AND OPERATING COSTS IN EXISTING SYSTEMS

When operated at 1000 CFM, the filters last approximately twice as long as standard HEPA filters.

Lower energy cost.

Less frequent change-out saves on labor and disposal costs.

SHALLOW CRIMP SEPARATORS PERMIT MORE MEDIA

Increased airflow capacity is the result of shallow crimp separators that have a lower profile (shorter height) compared to standard HEPA filters. This permits more pleats and, as a result, more media.
