Carbon V-Bank Filter for Air Purification

EFS /

Carbon V-bank filters are most commonly seen in various industrial applications. They can be used in existing HVAC systems, specified for new construction or easily retrofitted. Carbon V-bank filters are helpful to remove different kinds of particles, impurities or bad odors present in the air or its surroundings. These filters bear immense significance especially for air pollution or odor from commercial industries which are higher than normal. Since most of the industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, construction, fertilizers, use various hazardous raw materials, installation of carbon V-Bank filters is vital for ensuring workers’ health and eco-friendly settings.

Carbon V-bank filters are considered as one of the most absorbent filters as the filtration media has tiny absorbent pores that trap the pollutants when they pass through the filter. The same happens with gaseous odors such as diesel fumes, tobacco smoke, cooking odors, auto exhaust, etc. Odors get trapped in the carbon that is embedded within the filtration media as soon as they enter the filter. Carbon V-bank filters are also highly effective for removing contaminating gases from acetone, paint fumes, gasoline, SOx, NOx, VOCs and Ozone–gasses that are harmful to human health and products.

The carbon V-bank filters are sometimes seen working alongside other filters such as HEPA filters where they work in combination to trap and remove smaller particles or pollutants.
One of the greatest features of carbon V-bank filter is that it doesn’t deposit the air contaminants back in the air, as do some other air filters. This makes them particularly effective in hospital and healthcare settings. As per the latest researches, it has been revealed that carbon V-bank filters are best suitable for removing odors. However, carbon V-bank filters when used in conjunction with other filters like HEPA filters, become highly effective for removing allergens, mold, dust, pet dander, and other contaminants from the air.

Leading The Commercial Filter Industry

EFS /

The #1 commercial filter manufacturer Engineered Filtration Systems (EFS) is one of the most innovative air filter brand in the industry. At EFS, we are determined to always improve and innovate our products to exceed, not only our competition but our own expectations.

With our V-Bank filter for example, when we first came out with this filter it was the highest efficiency on the market and the lowest pressure drop at the time. First and foremost developing break through filtration processes and using the highest quality materials was, and is, our highest priority. However, through the years filter manufacturers have done their due diligence progressing their techniques, but EFS standards soar above market expectations.

Another example of our tenacious pursuit for quality is our reverse pocket filter. They work well as a pre-filter, but other manufactures encountered some difficulty where many systems don’t allow for the depth of a pocket filter. The shortest version pocket filter available is 12 inches deep and in the pre-filter areas of many handlers, there is a limitation in depth which is why the largest pre-filter you find in many standard HVAC air handlers is a 4 inch deep pleat. 

There were many hospitals, for example, that could not upgrade to a standard pocket filter which helps them in regards to filtration and reduces the pressure drop, and last up to 4 or 8 times longer than a standard pleated filter. So we developed a reverse-pocket filter which is installed in a reverse configuration which doesn’t require the depth (12″ or greater) necessary for a standard pocket filter which is just another example of our attention to detail. In addition, the EFS filters have 100% synthetic filter media with non-shedding fibers that resists moisture, chemicals, and bacterial growth. We also have the only bag filter with an extruded aluminum frame which gives the filter enhanced stability, and ultrasonically sealed pocket seams prevent leaks & tears. We consider each facet of the air filtration industry and leave no stone unturned in providing a clean and healthy environment for our customers.
