6.0 Troubleshooting
6.1 High Pressure Drop Reading Across the Filter System
6.1.1 High Airflow Volume
High airflow volume may result from improper fan sizing or
improper control of the fan. The airflow should be controlled
through the use of dampers which are designed to keep the
system pressure constant.
6.1.3 Condensation
Humid air combined with cold surfaces may result in condensation
of moisture and blinding the gas phase media. This moisture can
also result in mould growth which may also impact the performance
of the filter system. If condensation is a recurring problem
dehumidification or other tempering of the air may be required.
Insulation may also be necessary. If the source of the moisture is
at the intake, weather hoods or weather louvers to remove sensible
moisture in the form of rain should be considered. If the source of
moisture is from leaking ducts repair the leaks.
6.2 Visible Discharge of Particulate
Provide particulate filters on the downstream side (air leaving side) of
the system. Dust might be seen temporarily during start up and may
clear shortly afterwards.
