China Factory Paint Mist Collector Filter - Eco-Friendly Cardboard Frame, 93% Efficiency, EN 779 G4 Standard Suppliers
The filter media is the core component for capturing paint over spray, typically made of fluffy, porous materials with high dust-holding capacity. The main types are as follows:
Glass Fiber
- Characteristics: The most commonly used, classic paint filtration material.
- Advantages: High fire resistance rating (usually Class A non-combustible), moisture-resistant, chemically corrosion-resistant, high dust-holding capacity, stable efficiency.
- Form: Usually a fluffy, white, cotton-like structure that effectively intercepts and absorbs wet paint particles.
Synthetic Fiber
- Characteristics: Such as polyester fiber (PET), etc.
- Advantages: Good toughness, potentially higher filtration efficiency, more environmentally friendly (some products are recyclable).
- Disadvantages: Generally inferior fire resistance compared to glass fiber (usually flame-retardant grade, not non-combustible).
Composite Fiber
- Characteristics: A blend of fibers of different thicknesses and materials to balance filtration efficiency, resistance, and dust-holding capacity.
| Component | Main Material | Key Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| Frame | Special Kraft Paper / Cardboard | High strength, moisture-resistant, flame-retardant (treated), lightweight, low cost |
| Filter Media | Glass Fiber | Most common, fire-resistant (Class A non-combustible), moisture-resistant, high dust-holding capacity |
| Filter Media | Synthetic Fiber (e.g., PET) | High toughness, high efficiency, more environmentally friendly (note fire rating) |
When selecting, you need to focus on the following points:
-
🔥
Fire Resistance Rating In environments like spray booths where sparks are a risk, Class A non-combustible glass fiber filter media is the preferred choice for the highest safety.
-
🎯
Filtration Efficiency Choose filter media with different densities and structures based on the type of paint you are spraying (water-based/oil-based) and the required paint over spray capture efficiency.
-
📦
Dust-Holding Capacity A higher dust-holding capacity means a longer service life for the filter and lower replacement frequency, making it more economical in the long run.
-
💧
Moisture Resistance Especially in areas with high humidity or when using water-based paints, moisture resistance is crucial to prevent premature filter failure.
The efficiency of currently available are:
They can be selected based on specific requirements. The rational selection of filter efficiency and face velocity contributes to comprehensive economic benefits.
As dust accumulates on the filter media, the resistance increases. When the resistance reaches an unreasonable level, the filter must be discarded. Sometimes, excessive resistance can cause previously captured dust to become dislodged and re-enter the airflow; when this risk arises, the filter should also be replaced.
