WEATHERPROOF SIDE ACCESS HOUSINGS FOR SINGLE TO MULTISTAGE AIR FILTRATION


Industry's Lowest Filter Bypass Leakage

Camfil FARR 3P Glide / Pack with prefilters and final filters installed.

Glide / Pack housings provide the industry with unprecedented versatility in both size and choices. They are available for single purpose applications; or may be staged (mated) to accomplish several control strategies, such as moisture separation, air diffusion, gas and vapor adsorption, and of course, particle removal. Efficiencies range from 25% to 95% (ASHRAE 52.1-92). Other housings and related hardware are also available for HEPA filters of 95% - 99.99% DOP to 99.9995+% at 0.12 micron. Type 3P and 4P housings offer the distinction of having the lowest filter bypass leakage available, providing a new standard in Indoor Air Quality for ASHRAE rated filters and their respective holding mechanisms.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION - 16-gauge galvanized / galvaneal steel housings and doors, extruded aluminum tracking, and individually sealing Universal Holding Frames provide the owner integrity and flexibility in the selection and utilization of various filtration devices. Housings of like size have identical peripheral dimensions and hole patterns for infinite in-line mating. Each is supplied with two access doors to facilitate filter exchange from either side of the housing. All housings are weatherproof as standard. Prefilters are serviceable without disturbing the final filter seal.

CAPACITIES - Glide / Pack capacities range from less than 1,000 CFM to a high of 60,000 CFM (at 625 fpm) in seventy (70) sizes for the ideal height / width combination for each installation. Housings may be staged, stacked or installed horizontally to match virtually any requirement.

UPGRADING - Filter type or efficiency upgrading is accomplished by simply changing filters, and in some cases, fasteners. No housing modifications are required. Housings will individually seal and accept any standard 24" x 24" or 12" x 24" air filtration device.

OPTIONS - Available options include AHU mating transitions, stainless steel, primer coat, total or partial insulation, and factory mating and sealing or combined housings. Frameless housings utilizing headered filters are available should design considerations allow for slight leakage compromise.

LEAKAGE of unfiltered air across the filter housing is guaranteed to be less than 1% of rated airflow at 3" w.g. differential on all 3P and 4P Glide / Packs supplied with integral frames. Leakage into the housing from ambient is guaranteed to be less than 0.5% of rated airflow on all housings. The efficiency specified for elements can now be applied for the entire device.

Camfil FARR Housings do not require filters with headers (which reduce effective filter area). More filter types are therefore usable. Full-size filters mean longer service life, higher dust holding capacity, and lower airflow restriction. When installed, each filter is individually assured against leakage with 100 lbs. of sealing force.

SEALS between each Universal Holding Frame is assured through use of polyurethane foam strips. This same material seals filter elements within each frame. Closed-cell neoprene and polyurethane foam gaskets on doors seal between door, housing and Universal Holding Frames.

3P STATIC TAP allows for individual and/or total pressure drop readings of both prefilter and final filter sections with a single gauge.

TWO ACCESS DOORS facilitate service from either side of housing and come equipped with heavy-duty, adjustable, replaceable latches, replaceable hinges and closed-cell neoprene gasketing to guarantee a positive seal.

AIR BARRIER: Nonwoven pile encased aluminum backed polypropylene "finned seal". Heavy gauge anodized extruded aluminum channel and Universal Frame U-bearing slide. Finned seal presses tightly against slide, woven pile wipes it clean. 

Camfil FARR 3CF Glide / Pack with 4" prefilter and carbon filters installed at 90 lbs. per 2,000 CFM of airflow.
