Frequently asked questions

Common questions about KOCH FILTER from 3G Electric.

What is the MERV rating of Koch Filter V-Bank air filters supplied by 3G Electric?

The Koch Filter V-Bank air filters available through 3G Electric are rated MERV 17. This rating indicates a high level of efficiency in capturing airborne particles, including viruses, bacteria, and fine particulate matter in the 0.3 to 1.0 micron range. MERV 17 filters are typically used in applications requiring stringent air quality control, such as healthcare facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and cleanrooms. The filters feature a plastic frame and microfiber glass media, and are available in 4 V-bank configurations without headers.

What sizes are available for Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank air filters?

Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank air filters are available in multiple sizes, including 24 x 24 x 12 inches and 12 x 24 x 12 inches. These dimensions refer to nominal face size and depth. The 24 x 24 x 12 inch size is common in many commercial HVAC systems, while the 12 x 24 x 12 inch size may be used in systems with narrower filter racks. All variants feature a 4 V-bank configuration and are supplied without a header. It is important to verify the actual filter rack dimensions and airflow requirements before selecting a size.

Are Koch Filter V-Bank air filters suitable for virus capture?

Yes, Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank air filters are designed to capture viruses and other airborne microorganisms. The MERV 17 rating signifies a minimum efficiency of 99.97% for particles in the 0.3 micron range, which includes many virus carriers. The microfiber glass media provides a high surface area for particle capture, and the V-bank design increases media area while maintaining low pressure drop. These filters are often used in healthcare settings, laboratories, and other environments where airborne pathogen control is critical. However, they should be installed and maintained according to system design and safety guidelines.

What is the difference between Koch Filter V-Bank filters with and without headers?

Koch Filter V-Bank air filters supplied by 3G Electric are configured without headers. A header is a frame that surrounds the filter face to provide additional structural support and aid in sealing within the filter rack. Filters without headers rely on the filter rack's sealing mechanism to prevent air bypass. The no-header design can be advantageous in systems where space is limited or where the existing rack is designed for headerless filters. It is essential to ensure proper sealing during installation to maintain filtration efficiency. For applications requiring headers, alternative models may be available.

Can Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank filters be used for odor control?

Certain variants of Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank air filters are specifically designed for odor control. These filters incorporate media or treatments to adsorb odorous compounds while maintaining high particulate efficiency. For example, some models may include activated carbon or other adsorbents. The MERV 17 rating ensures that particulate removal remains effective. Odor control filters are often used in waste treatment facilities, industrial processes, or commercial buildings where odors are a concern. When selecting a filter for odor control, verify the specific model's capabilities and compatibility with the HVAC system.

How does 3G Electric support the Koch Filter product line?

3G Electric supplies Koch Filter MERV 17 V-Bank air filters as part of its catalog of industrial equipment. The company provides access to multiple SKUs, allowing customers to compare specifications such as dimensions, media type, and special features. 3G Electric offers logistics support for global shipping, ensuring that filters can be delivered to various locations.
