The final resistance is a standard to measure the service life of an air filter. The resistance of a new filter is called the "initial resistance", and the resistance corresponding to the scrapped filter is called the "final resistance". The filter forms resistance to the airflow, the filter accumulates dust, and the resistance increases. When the resistance increases to a certain specified value, the filter is scrapped. The lower the initial resistance of the air filter with the same requirements, the better, the following will introduce the following standards for the resistance value of the primary, middle, and high-efficiency air filters:
Recommended final resistance value:
G3 (initial effect) 100～200Pa
G4 (junior high efficiency) 150～250Pa
F5～F6 (medium efficiency) 250～300Pa
F7～F8 (high and medium efficiency) 300～400Pa
F9～H11 (sub-high efficiency) 400～450Pa
High efficiency and super high efficiency of 400～600Pa
The choice of final resistance is directly related to the service life of the filter, the range of system air volume changes, and the system energy consumption. In most cases, the final resistance is 2 to 4 times the initial resistance. The dirtier the air filter is, the faster the resistance increases. A too high final resistance value does not mean that the service life of the filter will be significantly extended, but it will make the air volume of the air conditioning system drop sharply. Therefore, there is no need to set the final resistance value too high.
Low-efficiency air filters often use coarse fiber filter materials with a diameter greater than or equal to 10 microns. Due to the large gaps between the fibers, excessive resistance may blow away the dust on the filter. At this time, the resistance will no longer increase, but the filtration efficiency will drop to zero. Therefore, the final resistance value of filters below G4 must be strictly limited. Each filter section should be equipped with resistance monitoring devices. The final resistance depends on the instrument to determine, not just the operator's feeling.
