Anon. ETV TEST REPORT OF CONTROL OF BIOAEROSOLS IN HVAC SYSTEMS GLASFLOSS INDUSTRIES EXCEL FILTER, MODEL SBG24242898. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, EPA/600/R-04/149, 2004.
Description:
The Environmental Technology Verification report discusses the technology and performance of the Excel Filter, Model SBG24242898 air filter for dust and bioaerosol filtration manufactured by Glasfloss Industries, Inc. The pressure drop across the filter was 82 Pa clean and 348 Pa dust loaded. The filtration efficiency when the filter was clean was 91% for Bacillus atrophaeus, 91% for Serratia marcescens, and 96% for bacteriophage MS2. The filtration efficiency when the filter was dust loaded was 98% for Bacillus atrophaeus, 98% for Serratia marcescens, and 99.5% for bacteriophage MS2. The ASHRAE 52.2 dust filtration efficiency was 77% for particles between 0.3 and 1.0 micrometers, 97% for particles between 1.0 and 3.0 micrometers, and 100% for particles between 3.0 and 10 micrometers. The minimum efficiency reporting value was 14 at 0.93 cubic meters per sec.
