MEGAcel® II Filters Lower Energy Consumption Estimates show that up to 50% of a facility’s energy consumption is used for heating, cooling, and air handling. With increasing utility prices and peak power billing plans, lowering energy consumption is a key initiative. MEGAcel II filters with ePTFE media feature a lower pressure drop than traditional filters with ultrafine microglass media, up to 50% lower depending on the exact conditions. At the same time, the overall filtration efficiency for MEGAcel II filters has proven to be higher than for filters with ultrafine microglass media. The lower pressure drop and improved efficiency are achieved from an evenly distributed layer of fibers with very fine nanometer-scale diameters. Air molecules can efficiently pass through the fibers, and airborne particles can be captured more easily. The result: air quality is optimized and energy costs are substantially reduced.
