Classification
The new EN 779:2012 standard now requires
specific minimum efficiencies for filter classes
F7 to F9.
No minimum efficiency is required for filter
classes F5 and F6. To differentiate them from
filter classes F7, F8 and F9, the new filter
group M has been created. The filters continue to
be classified based on the average efficiency.
