G4 SYNTHETIC PLANE FILTER

Filter Type: It’s an air filter. The term “plane filter” indicates it’s a flat, panel-style filter, as opposed to a pleated or bag filter.

G4 Classification: “G4” refers to its efficiency class according to European standards (like EN 779 or ISO 16890 Coarse 60-65%). G4 filters are considered coarse filters or pre-filters. This means their primary job is to capture larger particles.

• What they filter: G4 filters are effective at removing larger airborne particles such as:
  • Large dust particles
  • Pollen
  • Insect debris
  • Lint
  • Hair
  • Other coarse contaminants

Synthetic Media: “Synthetic” refers to the material the filter media is made from. This typically means non-woven synthetic fibers (e.g., polyester, polypropylene) as opposed to natural fibers (like cotton) or specialized media (like activated carbon or fiberglass in HEPA filters).

• Benefits of Synthetic Media:
  • Moisture Resistance: Synthetic media generally handles moisture better than some other materials.
  • Durability: They are often quite robust.
  • Consistent Performance: Provide consistent filtration even when wet.
  • Cost-Effective: Often a more economical choice for pre-filtration.
