Frequently asked questions
Common questions about GLOBAL FINISHING SOLUTIONS from 3G Electric.
What is the difference between GFS MERV 7 and MERV 8 filter rolls?
GFS MERV 7 and MERV 8 filter rolls differ in their filtration efficiency. MERV 7 captures a higher percentage of particles in the 3-10 micron range, while MERV 8 provides slightly greater efficiency for the same particle sizes. Both are made of white polyester media. The choice depends on the specific air quality requirements of the finishing environment. MERV 7 rolls are often used for general pre-filtration or final filtration in paint collection, while MERV 8 may be specified where finer particulate control is needed. 3G Electric stocks both ratings in various dimensions, including rolls with and without surface tackifier.
Are GFS paint collector pads available with surface tackifier?
Yes, GFS paint collector pads are available both with and without surface tackifier. For example, the 20 in x 48 in x 2 in pad (MPN 217-200) includes a surface tackifier and has green media, while the 20 in x 25 in x 2 in pad (MPN FIL-EPP-2025-W) and the 20 in x 20 in x 1 in pad (MPN 216-501) do not have tackifier and use white media. The tackifier helps capture overspray particles more effectively by making the surface sticky. Selection depends on the type of coating being applied and the desired capture efficiency. 3G Electric supplies these pads in pack quantities of 8, 24, or 30 depending on the model.
What are the electrical specifications of GFS hazardous location LED light fixtures?
GFS hazardous location LED light fixtures are rated for Class I, Division 1 and 2, Groups A, B, C, D. They operate on 120V AC. Two models are available: one delivering 8,400 lumens at 68 W (MPN 1025704) and another delivering 12,600 lumens at 102 W (MPN 1025705). Both have a 5000K color temperature and a T5 temperature code. The cylindrical linear design is intended for paint booth and industrial finishing environments where flammable gases or vapors may be present. These fixtures are suitable for use in areas requiring hazardous location certification.
Can GFS filter rolls be used in both dry and wet paint booths?
GFS filter rolls are primarily designed for dry filtration in paint booths and finishing operations. The polyester media captures overspray particles as air passes through. For wet booths, different filtration methods are typically used. The MERV 7 and MERV 8 rolls are suitable for general air filtration and paint collection in dry spray booths. Some models include a surface tackifier to enhance capture of sticky overspray. The rolls are available in various nominal heights and widths to fit different booth configurations. 3G Electric provides these rolls for global delivery.
What sizes of GFS paint collector pads does 3G Electric stock?
3G Electric stocks GFS paint collector pads in several sizes: 20 in x 25 in x 2 in (MPN FIL-EPP-2025-W, 30-pack), 20 in x 20 in x 1 in (MPN 216-501, 24-pack), and 20 in x 48 in x 2 in (MPN 217-200, 8-pack). These pads are made of polyester media, with some models featuring a surface tackifier. The variety of sizes allows matching to different spray booth designs and overspray capture requirements. All are intended for use in industrial finishing applications to collect paint particles and maintain air quality.
