    🌐 Application Area
    • Return air sections of commercial and residential central air conditioning systems; pre-treatment for fresh air system intakes
    • Ventilation equipment in office buildings, shopping malls, hotels, and schools
    • Primary pre-filtration in industrial plants and production workshops
    • Air conditioning equipment in computer rooms and communication base stations
    • Household fresh air ventilators and air purifiers (as a pre-filter)
    🧱 Filter Media Materials

    The frame of a cardboard frame pre filter is typically made from high-quality kraft paperboard or high-strength corrugated paper. The selection of this material is carefully considered:

    ✦ Advantages

    Low Cost: One of the most economical filter types on the market, ideal for applications requiring regular bulk replacement.

    Lightweight and Easy Installation: The paper frame makes it very lightweight, easy to install and remove.

    Low Initial Air Resistance: Its loose structure ensures good air flow, places less demand on system fan pressure, and contributes to energy savings.

    Moderate Dust-Holding Capacity: The pleated design provides decent dust loading capacity, extending the replacement cycle (compared to more basic mesh filters).

    Eco-friendly: Main materials (paper frame, some filter media) are biodegradable or can be incinerated, resulting in a relatively lower environmental burden.

    ⚙ Common types include Metal Mesh

    Characteristics: Typically aluminum or stainless steel mesh; washable, reusable, with good durability.

    Used in situations requiring higher standards and reusable, but the cost is higher than that of paper media.

    📋 Selection and Usage Note
    1
    Size Matching Accurately measure the installation space (track or bolt holes) to ensure a perfect fit and prevent air "short-circuiting" (unfiltered air bypassing the filter through gaps).
    2
    Environment Assessment If the operating environment is very humid, strongly consider choosing a primary filter with a metal frame (e.g., aluminum). Although slightly more expensive, its stability and service life far exceed those of paper frames.
    3
    Regular Inspection and Replacement Primary filters are consumables and must be inspected regularly. Replace promptly when:
    • The filter media appears visibly darkened and saturated with dust.
    • Increased air resistance leads to a significant reduction in airflow.
    • The paper frame is damp, deformed, or damaged.
    • Typical replacement cycles are 1–3 months, depending on environmental dust concentration and usage frequency.
    4
    Installation Direction Pay attention to the airflow direction arrow on the filter and ensure correct installation made according to specific conditions.
    🏆 Efficiency Grade Selection
    G2 / G3

    The most common grades, suitable for general ventilation systems.

    G4

    Higher efficiency, capturing finer particles. Often used in places with slightly higher cleanliness requirements or as a pre-filter for medium-efficiency filters.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    Q What is a cardboard frame pre-filter and where is it typically used?
    A cardboard frame pre-filter is a low-cost primary air filtration unit featuring a kraft paperboard or corrugated paper frame. It is widely used in central air conditioning return air sections, fresh air system intakes, ventilation equipment in offices, hotels, schools, industrial plants, computer rooms, and household fresh air ventilators as an initial-stage filter to capture larger airborne particles.
    Q What efficiency grades are available and how do I choose the right one?
    Cardboard frame pre-filters are commonly available in G2, G3, and G4 grades. G2 and G3 are the most common grades, suitable for general ventilation systems. G4 offers higher efficiency, capturing finer particles, and is often selected for environments with higher cleanliness requirements or as a pre-filter upstream of medium-efficiency filters.
    Q How often should a cardboard frame pre-filter be replaced?
    Typical replacement cycles are every 1 to 3 months, depending on the environmental dust concentration and usage frequency. You should replace the filter promptly if the filter media appears visibly darkened and saturated with dust, if airflow is significantly reduced due to increased resistance, or if the paper frame becomes damp, deformed, or physically damaged.
    Q Can cardboard frame pre-filters be used in humid environments?
    Cardboard frame pre-filters are not recommended for very humid environments, as moisture can cause the paper frame to warp, deform, or deteriorate quickly. For high-humidity applications, it is strongly recommended to use a primary filter with a metal frame (such as aluminum), which offers far superior stability and a longer service life, although at a slightly higher cost.
    Q What filter media options are available for cardboard frame pre-filters?
    The most common filter media option includes metal mesh (aluminum or stainless steel), which is washable, reusable, and highly durable. Metal mesh media is ideal for applications requiring reusability and higher performance standards, though it comes at a higher cost compared to standard paper-based media.
    Q Are cardboard frame pre-filters environmentally friendly?
    Yes, cardboard frame pre-filters are considered relatively eco-friendly. The main materials, including the paper frame and certain filter media types, are biodegradable or can be safely incinerated, resulting in a lower overall environmental burden compared to filters made from non-degradable synthetic materials.
