The Glasfloss Puracell II M & MH filter is a minipleat cartridge encapsulated with a heavy-duty 26 gauge galvanized metal frame. An optional gasket can be applied to the filter frame. The galvanized metal frame is riveted together to form a rigid frame. The Puracell II M & MH pack is pleated, wet-laid micro fiber media. The pleats are separated and supported by a uniform glue bead that produces a low initial pressure drop while maximizing the filtration area. The media pack is resistant to moisture and does not support the growth of bacteria and mold. The media pack is thoroughly sealed to the inside of the metal frame to prevent air bypass. A metal face guard shall be secured on the air leaving side. The filter shall be rated to withstand temperatures up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit. The recommended final resistance for Puracell II M & MH filters is 1.5″ w.g.
