6P GLIDE / PACK
Weatherproof Side-Access Housing

Versatile Performance, Low Bypass Leakage, Compact 40" Deep Housing

The FARR 6P Glide/Pack housing brings a new level of versatility to the design of side access air filtration systems... while occupying minimal space in mechanical rooms. Its four filter tracks hold up to four stages of particulate and gaseous filtration in a single housing at 40" in depth. For example, a four-stage systems might incorporate a pleated panel prefilter, a high efficiency particulate filter, a carbon adsorber for control of gaseous contaminants and a final "dusting" pleated after filter. Many three-stage filtration schemes are also possible.

Compact yet versatile, the 6P Glide/Pack accommodates today's IAQ and air filtration needs - and tomorrows. FARR Company offers a wide choice of particulate and gaseous filtration products that may be installed in different combinations to meet to meet individual requirements. As those requirements change, it is easy to retrofit or upgrade the system to different filter types and/or efficiencies. There is no need for costly modifications and no worries that your filtration system will become inadequate or obsolete.

The 6P Glide/Pack offers the industry's lowest filter bypass leakage rate. It is equipped with FARR Type 8 Universal Holding Frame which seals each individual element against the gasketed surface with 100 lbs. of force. Leakage of unfiltered air across the housing is guaranteed to be < 1% of rated airflow.

(2) See sales drawing 400861 for Riga-RP housing to be used in track "C".
(3) A 22" Hi-Flo filter is the maximum recommended depth when installed in track "B" and will preclude using track "C".

SPECIFICATIONS

FARR 6P GLIDE/PACK - Side-access, four-stage filter systems consisting of a housing, removable access doors, heavy extruded aluminum tracks with seal, Universal Holding Frames, filter fasteners and three integral static pressure taps. Housing shall accommodate either 2" or 4" deep prefilters in first track (A), followed by standard 6" or 12" deep rigid particulate filter, or 12" standard rigid carbon adsorber in second track (B). A 6" or 12" deep standard particulate rigid filter, or 12" standard rigid carbon adsorber can be installed in third track (C) followed by a 2" after filter in forth track (D). In-line depth shall not exceed 40". The static pressure taps shall be constructed of brass and equipped with pneumatic fittings. The first pressure tap shall be installed between the first and second filtration stages - the second shall be installed between the second and third filtration stages - the third shall be installed between the third and fourth filtration stages. Pressure taps shall be able to provide individual and/or total pressure drop readings with gauges and selector or three-way valves. Accuracy shall be +,- 3% from 0.6" w.g.

Leakage at rated airflow, upstream to downstream of filter, holding frame, and slide mechanism shall be less than 1% at 3" w.g. differential.

Leakage into housing frame ambient atmosphere at rated airflow shall be less than 0.5% at 3" w.g. negative. Manufacturer shall submit substantiating test reports.

Housing shall be FARR model 6P Glide/Pack. It shall be factory fabricated and assembled from 16 gauge galvanized steel with corner posts of Z-channel bracing to eliminate racking. Each housing shall be equipped with two removable access doors and 1.5" standing flanges with pre-punched holes to facilitate field installation and/or in-line mating with other FARR or OEM housings. Flanges shall be notched to provide water runoff. Housing must be weatherproof and suitable for rooftop/outdoor installation. Standard housing shall be built to withstand +,- 4" w.g.

   Access door shall be constructed of 16-gauge galvanized steel and positioned to facilitate removal or replacement of filters from either side of the housing. Each door shall be removable and equipped with adjustable and replaceable positive knobs and hinges to prevent ambient air from entering. Doors shall provide easy lift-off or swing-open capability, making it easy to access the system. The peripheral gasket material shall be of high memory sponge neoprene. Holding frame-to-door contact shall be gasketed with polyurethane foam to effect a leak proof seal.

Track shall be field adjustable and replaceable, heavy gauge, aluminum extrusion designed to accommodate FARR Universal Holding Frames. Each extrusion shall be equipped with three rows of replaceable, nonwoven pile encased, aluminum backed, polypropylene finned seals providing an air barrier between the extrusion and Universal Holding Frame.

Universal Holding Frames shall be constructed of galvanized steel and equipped with integral U-bearing slide channels, centering dimples, multiple fastener lances and polyurethane foam gasketing, internally and on frame sides, to facilitate a sealable side-access system capable of accommodating any standard (nominal) 24" x 24" or 24" x 12" filters without modifications to frame or housing.

Optional construction such as stainless steel housing, high pressure (reinforced construction allowing +,- 8" w.g.), double-wall insulated, transition plates for air handling equipment and for FARR HEPA filter housings are available.
