HEPA filter H14 EN1822

Description

1. Product Overview

HEPA filter H14 EN1822 is a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter manufactured to meet the EN1822 H14 classification for separation efficiency. It is engineered for critical air-cleaning applications that demand ≥99.995% removal of 0.1–0.3 µm particles, providing reliable containment of airborne particulates, aerosols, and engineered dust. The filter’s primary industrial use is in contamination-sensitive environments—pharmaceutical production, semiconductor fabs, cleanrooms, medical device manufacturing, and high-precision laboratories—where particulate control is mission-critical to product quality and regulatory compliance. Strategically, H14 HEPA filters reduce risk of product rejection, protect worker health, and enable customers to meet stringent international clean-air standards, making them a core element of any enterprise-grade contamination control program.

2. Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Filter classification: EN1822 H14 (efficiency ≥99.995% at MPPS).

• Media material: Multi-layer borosilicate glass microfibers with electrostatic charge treatment (or equivalent high-performance synthetic glass fiber media).

• Frame material: Rigid galvanized steel or extruded anodized aluminum; available with stainless-steel (304/316) frames for corrosive environments.

• Seal & gasket: Continuous polyurethane or silicone gasket for airtight seal; optional neoprene for chemical-resistant applications.

• Media pleat geometry: High-capacity mini-pleat (8–12 mm pitch) or standard pleat options for optimized airflow and dust holding.

• Initial pressure drop: Typically 60–120 Pa at standard rated flow (subject to size); custom testing available.

• Rated airflow per nominal size: Configurable; examples—595x595x292 mm, 1,020–1,700 m3/h nominal ranges depending on frame and pleat configuration.

• Maximum operating temperature: Standard up to 70°C; high-temp variants up to 120°C.

• Humidity tolerance: Up to 100% RH with appropriate gasket and frame selection; avoid sustained condensation on media.

• Physical form & color: Rectangular rigid panel/cassette; media color off-white/cream, frame color metallic or painted per customer spec.

• Particle size capture: Designed for maximum capture at MPPS (most penetrating particle size) typically 0.1–0.3 µm.

• Leakage & integrity: Individually tested per EN1822 (MPPS scan or DOP/PAO scanning) with certificate of conformity; optional on-site integrity testing.

• Shelf life: Recommended storage 24 months in dry, temperature-controlled conditions (5–25°C, <65% RH).

• Packaging options: Cardboard palletized crates, shrink-wrapped on pallets, wooden crates for export; inner protective covers to prevent media contamination.

• Customization: Dimensions, face velocity, frame material, gasket type, and performance validation can be tailored to customer specifications.

3. Core Industrial Applications

• Pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing: Final-stage air filtration in cleanrooms (ISO 5–8), isolators, filling suites; ensures product sterility, reduces contamination-related batch losses, and supports regulatory audits (GMP compliance).

• Semiconductor and electronics fabrication: Process tool and cleanroom filtration to protect wafers from sub-micron particles that cause defects; supports high yield and reduces rework.

• Medical device and hospital HVAC systems: Critical-area filtration for operating rooms, laminar flow hoods, and HEPA-filtered enclosures; protects patients and sensitive products.

• Aerospace and defense: Environmental control systems in assembly and testing facilities where particulate control impacts component integrity and safety.

• Laboratories and research facilities: Biosafety cabinets, containment labs, and clean benches requiring certified filtration performance.
  Why it performs better: H14 EN1822 filters are designed and tested against a rigorous, particle-size-specific standard (EN1822), delivering verified performance at the most penetrating particle sizes. Advanced media construction and pleat geometry maximize dust-holding capacity and maintain lower pressure drop versus lower-class filters, extending service intervals and reducing fan energy consumption—yielding lower total cost of ownership compared with lower-efficiency or uncertified alternatives.

4. Competitive Advantages

• Quality consistency: Manufactured under controlled production protocols with batch-level EN1822 certification and traceable documentation; individual filter test reports supplied.

• Supply reliability: Industrial-scale production capacity with scheduled production slots for long-term contracts and safety-stock strategies to support continuous operations.

• Logistics capability: Export-ready packaging, palletized bulk shipment, and experience with international freight (FCL/LCL) and hazardous-material handling where applicable.

• Price competitiveness: Competitive commercial pricing for bulk procurements (B2B volume tiers), with cost advantages from optimized pleat designs and material sourcing.

• Sustainability: Options for recyclable frame materials and reduced packaging waste; media optimized for extended life to lower replacement frequency and lifecycle emissions.

• Technical support: Application engineering, specification matching, on-site installation guidance, and commissioning support; supply of integrity test protocols and documentation for regulatory audits.

• After-sales service: Spare-part availability, replacement schedules, and validation support to integrate into maintenance programs (e.g., FM, EHS, and QA teams).

5. Commercial & Supply Information

• Minimum order quantity (MOQ): BULK 20MT.

• Loading capacity (MT per container): Typical loadings—20-foot container up to 20 MT (depending on packaging density and palletization); 40-foot container up to 24–26 MT with optimized packing.

• Lead times: Standard production lead time varies by order size and customization; typical bulk lead 4–8 weeks from PO and deposit, expedited options available.

• Incoterms & shipping: FOB, CIF, or DDP options available; documentation includes commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of conformity, and EN1822 test reports.

• Payment terms: Negotiable—commonly 30% deposit, 70% prior to shipment; open account or LC terms for approved buyers.

• Warranty: Conformance to specified EN1822 performance at delivery; warranty terms available for manufacturing defects.
