HemiPleat® Nano Technology

What is HemiPleat Nano?


NEW HemiPleat Nano media offers significant
filtration efficiencies over other brands due to
new application technologies to apply larger, more
durable nano fibers to the surface of the filter.
This technology allows base material to have
larger pore sizes than standard cellulose products,
thus reducing pressure drop of base material and
allowing the nano fibers to provide a superior
efficiency layer.
HemiPleat Nano media improves filtration
efficiencies, is more durable, and can withstand
rigorous pulse-cleaning. These advantages extend
filter life and lower operation costs, saving
you money.
State-of-the-art pleating technology is the key to
the HemiPleat’s superior performance. Techniques
used to manufacture the media packs of this
cartridge are unique, patented and have never
been applied to a cylindrical industrial dust
collection filter before. Synthetic beads hold
the pleats of the cartridge open with wide pleat
spacing not found in competitors cartridges, which
are packed too tightly to maximize media use. The
wider spacing of the HemiPleat® design exposes
more media to the gas stream and results in lower
pressure drop and improved cartridge release
characteristics during pulse cleaning.

Key Benefits of HemiPleat Nano


• MERV 14 efficiency rating—higher than base
paper rating of MERV 10 and competitors’
MERV 13 Nano Web product.
• Delivers long-term low pressure drop on difficult
applications like laser and plasma cutting,
Nano fibers applied to the surface of our welding, thermal spray, etc.
patented HemiPleat filters raise initial efficiency • HemiPleat Nano coating is thick, durable and
to a MERV 14 rating. can be seen. Competitive Nano coatings are so
thin they can’t even be seen—is it even there?

What is the efficiency rating?


A 100 µm The photos to the left show Nano fine fiber layer (image A) applied to the
surface of base cellulose fibers (B) to increase efficiency from a MERV 10
up to a MERV 14, which is higher than most other nano fiber filters on the
market at MERV 13.
MERV is an ASHRAE standard efficiency scale going 1 to 16, 16 being
the highest. Camfil Farr APC also offers our High Efficiency (HE) media which
has a MERV 16 rating for maximum initial efficiency. Tested efficiencies of
99.999% on 0.5 micron and larger particles by weight have been proven.
Mass emissions are below 0.001 gr/dscf on most applications.
Who does HemiPleat Nano help?
The HemiPleat Nano is perfect for smoke applications like laser and
plasma cutting, welding and thermal spray that have high concentrations
of submicron particles.
Nano fiber applied to surface – 260x. * Nano fibers can be applied over our standard Polytech media or our
fire retardant (FR) media.

B 100 µm Why is HemiPleat® Nano better?


• Lower pressure drop through open pleat spacing improves cleaning
efficiency, which will reduce energy costs through less compressed
air consumption during cleaning in many applications.
• More media is available for filtration, resulting in improved performance
and longer life.
• The separation beads, not the media pleats, contact the inner cage,
protecting the media from frictional damage.
• Camfil Farr APC guarantees performance in writing—ask about
