PURAFILTER

PURAFILTER is a brand of air filtration products distributed globally by 3G Electric. The line includes MERV 13 pleated air filters and general-use filter pads, with the pleated filters being the most frequently specified items in the current catalog. These filters are constructed with synthetic media and a beverage board frame, a combination that provides structural rigidity and resistance to moisture in HVAC applications. The MERV 13 rating indicates a filtration efficiency that captures a high percentage of airborne particles in the 0.3 to 10 micron range, including dust, pollen, mold spores, and smoke, making them suitable for commercial and industrial environments where improved indoor air quality is required. The filters are available in a range of nominal sizes, including 12x24x1, 16x20x1, 24x24x4, 14x20x1, 12x24x4, 12x24x2, 20x25x4, and 14x20x2 inches, with depths of 1, 2, and 4 inches. This size range allows for direct replacement in many standard HVAC filter racks and air handling units. The synthetic media is designed to maintain efficiency throughout the filter's service life, and the beverage board frame is a common industry standard for disposable pleated filters. Some models, such as the 20x25x4 inch filter (MPN 20254MV13), carry a LEED/Green designation, which may contribute to green building certification credits. 3G Electric supplies PURAFILTER products to plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists worldwide. The company provides access to technical specifications, including media material, frame material, and manufacturer part numbers, to assist with filter selection and cross-referencing. 3G Electric's global distribution network supports the availability of these filters for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) requirements across various industries. The product line is positioned for use in commercial HVAC systems, industrial process air, and general ventilation where MERV 13 filtration is specified. The filters are disposable and intended for periodic replacement according to system pressure drop or maintenance schedules. 3G Electric does not manufacture these products; it distributes them as part of its catalog of industrial equipment and components. The brand's focus on standard sizes and materials aligns with common HVAC filter requirements, and the availability through 3G Electric provides a single source for procurement. For technical buyers, the key specifications to verify are nominal dimensions, actual dimensions, media type, frame material, and MERV rating. The PURAFILTER MERV 13 pleated filters are designed to meet the filtration needs of systems where higher efficiency than MERV 8 or MERV 11 is required, but without the higher pressure drop associated with HEPA filters. This makes them a practical choice for retrofits or upgrades in existing HVAC systems. The beverage board frame is not recommended for applications with high moisture or where washable filters are required. The synthetic media is not washable and should be replaced when loaded. 3G Electric can provide manufacturer part numbers and SKU details to facilitate ordering and inventory management. The company's global reach means that customers outside Singapore can also access these products, with shipping and logistics coordinated through 3G Electric's distribution channels. For specific application questions, such as compatibility with existing filter racks or expected pressure drop, consult the manufacturer's technical data or contact 3G Electric for assistance. The PURAFILTER line is one of several filtration brands available through 3G Electric, and it is supported by the company's technical and procurement resources.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about PURAFILTER from 3G Electric.

What is the MERV rating of PURAFILTER pleated air filters?

PURAFILTER pleated air filters in the 3G Electric catalog are rated MERV 13. This rating indicates the filter captures a high percentage of particles in the 0.3 to 10 micron range, including dust, pollen, mold spores, and smoke. MERV 13 filters are commonly used in commercial and industrial HVAC systems where improved indoor air quality is required. They are not HEPA filters, which have higher efficiency and different pressure drop characteristics. The MERV 13 rating is based on ASHRAE Standard 52.2 test methods.

What sizes of PURAFILTER MERV 13 pleated air filters are available?

The available sizes include 12x24x1, 16x20x1, 24x24x4, 14x20x1, 12x24x4, 12x24x2, 20x25x4, and 14x20x2 inches. These are nominal dimensions; actual dimensions may vary slightly. The depths are 1, 2, and 4 inches. This range covers many common HVAC filter rack sizes. For specific dimensional tolerances, refer to the manufacturer's data or contact 3G Electric for assistance with cross-referencing.

What materials are used in PURAFILTER MERV 13 pleated air filters?

PURAFILTER MERV 13 pleated air filters use synthetic media and a beverage board frame. The synthetic media is designed to maintain filtration efficiency and is not washable. The beverage board frame provides structural support and is a standard material for disposable pleated filters. This construction is suitable for dry HVAC applications. The filters should not be used in high-moisture environments where the frame could degrade. Replacement is recommended when the filter reaches its recommended pressure drop or according to a maintenance schedule.

Are PURAFILTER MERV 13 filters suitable for LEED projects?

Some PURAFILTER MERV 13 models, such as the 20x25x4 inch filter (MPN 20254MV13), carry a LEED/Green designation. This may contribute to credits under the LEED green building certification program, particularly for indoor environmental quality. However, credit eligibility depends on the specific project requirements and other factors. Consult the LEED rating system and the filter's documentation for details. Not all PURAFILTER models have this designation. Verify with 3G Electric or the manufacturer for the specific model.

How do I select the correct PURAFILTER replacement filter for my HVAC system?

To select the correct PURAFILTER replacement filter, first determine the required nominal size and depth of your existing filter rack. Measure the actual dimensions of the current filter to ensure compatibility. Verify the required MERV rating; PURAFILTER MERV 13 filters are suitable where higher efficiency is needed. Check the media and frame materials for compatibility with your system. The manufacturer part numbers, such as 12241MV13 for the 12x24x1 size, can be used for cross-referencing. 3G Electric can assist with identifying the correct part number based on your specifications.

What is the pressure drop of PURAFILTER MERV 13 pleated air filters?

Pressure drop varies with face velocity, filter size, and loading. For specific pressure drop data, refer to the manufacturer's technical documentation for each model. As a general guideline, MERV 13 filters have a higher initial pressure drop than lower MERV ratings. System designers should account for this when specifying filters. 3G Electric can provide access to available technical data. Regular monitoring of pressure drop is recommended to determine filter change intervals. Consult the HVAC system specifications for allowable pressure drop ranges.
