Z-LineGT Pre-filtration Cells
boasts high stability and durability
The EMW Z-Line version has been available as a pre-filter cell for many years. The latest generation promises stability and durability especially for air inlet filtration of gas-turbine power stations.
Important criteria in the field of pre-filter
An optimally equipped suction system comprises several filtering stages. Referring to the filter class, especially large particles become separated from pre-filter cells. The stage of pre-filter therefore acts as a protective barrier for the filter levels with the much more efficient filter classes in the next area.
So much for theory!
In practice, many pre-filter cells sadly do not achieve the criteria stated before. The main weakpoint is the instability of many pre-filter cells.
At humidity unfortunately no rarity, the filter medium is collapsing within a short space of time. Filter media in the cardboard frame in particular are very vulnerable to high levels of humidity.
For those reasons, such product variants not resisting the stress inside a suction system. In the worst case, incoming air passes the damaged air filter.
Benefit of Z-LineGT
The Z-LineGT pre-filter cell boasts high stability and durability, and effectively prevents constant filter changing. Accordingly reduction of maintenance work includes the stage of pre-filters as well as the following, more efficient operating filter stages.
A robust plastic housing is used instead of a vulnerable cardboard frame. The progressive filter medium is firmly attached thanks to permanent gluing on all four sides. In addition to a better adhesion, the spacers fitted in the core, influencing a permanently low pressure difference. Filter medium collapsing or framework parts falling apart are no longer an issue.
