Electrolux Selects Palas® for Air Filter Filtration Performance Testing

Nowadays, people are increasingly concerned about the impact of air quality on human health. Home appliances related to environmental cleanliness and air purification, such as vacuum cleaners, air purifiers, air conditioners, etc., have become a necessity for millions of households. One of the core components of these appliances is the air filter. In order to obtain air filters of high quality, a lot of research and development is needed to improve their performance.

Palas® has a wealth of experience in the field of filtration performance test systems. That’s why Electrolux, a century-old home appliance brand, chose Palas® FET Dual Series dual duct filtration performance test system to provide strong support for its product testing. The system provided strong support for their product testing, helping them to gain a deeper understanding of the air filter performance.

Electrolux lab team with Palas® instruments

Well-received pre-sales and after-sales services

In the early stages of the cooperation, Palas® was favored by Electrolux due to its excellent overall strengths in terms of visibility, professionalism, market experience, equipment reliability, and after-sales service. Electrolux’s trust in Palas® comes from the SGS IBR Filtration Performance Laboratory in Suzhou. Previous filter tests have been carried out by commissioning this laboratory. The aerosol instruments used by SGS IBR are basically from the Palas® and Electrolux therefore decided to further engage with Palas®.

Palas® well-established sales and after-sales teams have been instrumental in the cooperation, and have been able to communicate with each other to provide a solution that perfectly matches the testing requirements. Ryan Sun, Senior Manager of Electrolux’s Air Purification team, said: “Palas® is one of the few suppliers of filtration performance testing systems with a branch office in China, and we are confident that the quick and easy provision of after-sales, maintenance, and technical support for the equipment will be of great convenience to us.”

With the better known Palas® FET Dual series Dual Duct filtration performance test system and fully compared various solutions, Electrolux finally chose Palas®. With the establishment of the complete air filter filtration performance test system, Electrolux’s R&D team had a direct, fast, and accurate judgment on the performance of the filters, which greatly improved the team’s R&D capability and efficiency.
