PLEATED PANEL FILTERS
Pleated panel filters have wide spaced fabric pleats (often around 50mm between
pleats) in a metal case.
These filters can be removed and emptied regularly. They can also be emptied
using a vacuum cleaner by removing the door of the VertEx, taking care not to
damage the media. If removed, always replace the filter with the open face
upwards.
Replace the filter when it is stained on the clean (downwards) side, or
damaged.
MINIPLEAT FILTERS
Mini pleat filters have fine paper pleats (often around 5mm between pleats) in a
metal case.
This filter is not cleanable.
Replace the filter when it is stained on the clean (downwards) side or
damaged.
DISPOSABLE CARBON FILTERS
Disposable carbon filters have solid black activated carbon filter media in a metal
case; arranged as either a flat panel, or a
‘V’
section.
Carbon filters are not cleanable. They will become less effective over time and we
recommend changing to a fixed schedule (for example, annually) in low use
applications.
Replace the filter when increased odour is noticed in the exhaust from the
unit; or to a fixed schedule.
