The outbreak of the highly infectious variant of the COVID-19 virus Delta, is spreading worldwide. There has already been a number of confirmed cases in various regions in the country. The pandemic is far from over. For the public, wearing a mask remains a simple and effective measure to protect oneself. For mask manufacturers, the qualification rate of their products needs to be enhanced in order to provide safe products for the fight against COVID-19.<\/p>\n

\nThe Palas\u00ae P-MFP inline filter test stand is installed directly in the production line. This means that not only individual random samples of the final results are checked, but a continuous quality monitoring is possible throughout the entire production process. UNIVENT, a German mask manufacturer, has chosen this series of test stands to conduct quality inspections on the masks produced.<\/p>\n
Palas\u00ae Filter Test System Checks Every Single Mask The quality of the mask is critical, because it is related to its ability to block airborne aerosols with viruses, especially small particle aerosols that are hard to be tested. As a specialist in filter material testing, Palas\u00ae has accumulated a wealth of experience in this field. The P-MFP system for respiratory mask testing stand uses the highly precise and proven Palas\u00ae technology. It is integrated directly into the production line to continuously monitor the differential pressure and filter mask efficiency in production facilities of mask and filter material in-line. The P-MFP system works with a medical-grade salt aerosol and low mass concentration to ensure that it will not have any impact on the initial filtration efficiency of the final product. Based on the Promo\u00ae LED 2,300 aerosol spectrometer, penetration is measured for the smallest particles in the virus-relevant range. This meets the hygienic requirements for the production of medical protective masks (FFP2).<\/p>\n Palas\u00ae P-MFP inline filter test stand<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong>\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Continuous quality statement Applications:<\/p>\n <\/strong>\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Inspection of filter material (melt blown) directly in the production line Promo\u00ae LED 2300 Aerosol Spectrometer for Particle<\/p>\n Benefits:<\/p>\n <\/strong>\u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Self-explanatory operation Applications:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00b7\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Process monitoring of particle size and concentration Palas\u00ae tests every millimetre of the mask material during the manufacturing process to improve production efficiency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6885,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[376],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6884"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6891,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6884\/revisions\/6891"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6885"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6884"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6884"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6884"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

\nPreviously, UNIVENT also checked the filter material before the masks were produced, and conducted random tests to ensure the quality. Now, the Palas\u00ae P-MFP system for respiratory mask testing stand is installed on the production line of UNIVENT, checking every millimeter of the filter material in-line. Once there is a deviation, an automatic alarm will be set off by the test stand, which greatly improves the quality and efficiency of filter material testing. As UNIVENT Managing Director Thomas Vosseler said, this allows the company to guarantee the correct filter performance for each individual mask. Simultaneously, inferior filter material can be detected and rejected directly, resulting in fewer rejects and faulty production. This saves time and money.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cover.png\")
