Palas test rigs to test filter and filter media
To reliably determine the quality and efficiency of filter elements, it is important to test energy consumption (pressure drop), loading, and particle separation efficiency in addition to total penetration.
Precise measurement requires adjustment of the measuring channel to the size of the filter element in terms of flow control and aerosol distribution. Learn more about our product range for various applications:
Advantages & Use
- Measurement according to ISO 29463-5 and 29463-3, as well as ISO 16890 (ISO ePM1; ISO Epm 2.5; ISO ePM10)in one channel possible (depending on model)
- Dual channels on request
- Particularly wide range of application for separation efficiency measurement from 0.02 to 40μm
- Measurement of dust holding capacity possible
- Customization of filter adapters, follow channel and measuring ranges possible for optimal test performance
- Modular compact design for small filter elements, low space requirement
- Calibration of raw gas/pure gas not necessary, because only one sampling and one measuring device is used
- Logged results based on relevant standards
Advantages & Use
- Sequence programs for fractional collection efficiency measurement, pressure drop measurement and loading measurement
- Particle size measurement: 0.12 - 40μm
- Easy use of different test aerosols, e.g. SAE Fine and Coarse, NaCl/KCL, DEHS
- High reproducibility of the test method
- Internationally comparable measurement results
- Easy operation and flexibility
- Mobile design, easy to move on rollers
- Low maintenance
Advantages & Use
- Best comparability with the standards EN 149, EN 13274-7, 42 CFR 84, ISO 16900-3, ASTM F2299-3, ASTM F3502-21 and GB2626
- For comparability with other standards to measure fractional efficiency by size and to export as text file, e.g., for ISO 29463-3, ISO 11155-1, ISO 16890-2, please contact us for more information
- Reliable quality assurance due to easy operation
- Uncomplicated changeover due to supplied mask and filter adapters
- No waiting for test results from external institutes
- Logged results based on relevant standards
