Improves IAQ through odor abatement
and better particulate air filtration
Many strong odors in living spaces come from
materials that are either strong acids or strong
bases. For example, sauerkraut smells up the
house because it is highly acidic. And the “ammo-
nia” smell of urine is highly alkaline...a strong base.
The Flanders PH Odor Control Pleat is specifically
designed to bring both types of odor
molecules...acid or base...into a more neutral, PH
balanced, odor free state.
The secret of this filter’s odor effectiveness is sodi-
um bicarbonate. It is basically an industrial version
of the baking soda you put in the fridge to remove
odors. The media fibers of the PH Odor Control
Pleat are coated with this material.
And it is sodium bicarbonate’s natural ability to neu-
tralize both acids and bases...balance their
PH...that makes the PH Odor Control filter effective
as a wide spectrum odor neutralizer.
Bonus...better particulate filtration
Fractional efficiency tests on the sodium bicarbon-
ate treated filter medium showed it to perform bet-
ter on particulates as well as on acid and alkaline
odors. Treatment caused no change in pressure
drop.
Examples of applications that might benefit from
such a filter include family residences, hotel rooms,
nursing facilities, athletic clubs and other areas with
odors that come from strong acids or strong bases.
Construction
Cotton and polyester pleat media is prepared by
immersion in a special sodium bicarbonate slurry,
then dried. Media is adhered to galvanized
expanded metal and deep pleated. Pleated pack is
encased and sealed within a moisture resistant
kraft board frame. This filter is offered in 1”, 2” and
4” depths in all of the most popular face sizes, plus
special sizes.
