H13-H14 Grade Efficiency: Certified to capture 99.97% to 99.99% of particles at 0.3μm, meeting strict ISO cleanroom standards.
Large Filtration Area: The V-shaped design allows for maximum media surface in a compact frame, ideal for high-velocity systems.
Energy Saving: Optimized mini-pleat geometry ensures minimal initial resistance (as low as 110 Pa at rated flow), significantly lowering operational costs.
Certified Quality: Fully compliant with RoHS environmental standards and rigorously tested by CNAS accredited labs.

Filter Media: Ultra-fine glass fiber or high-strength synthetic melt-blown media for consistent filtration performance.
Frame Construction: Rugged ABS plastic or galvanized steel frame ensures structural integrity and zero deformation under high air pressure.
Advanced Sealant: Dual-component polyurethane creates a 100% leak-proof seal between the media and the frame.
High-Tech Manufacturing: Critical air supply for semiconductor cleanrooms, LCD display production, and precision electronics assembly lines.
Healthcare & Life Sciences: Ventilation systems for hospital operating rooms, BSL-3/BSL-4 laboratories, and pharmaceutical sterile filling areas.
Food & Beverage: Contamination control in aseptic packaging lines and dairy processing facilities to ensure product shelf-life.
Power & Energy: Final filtration for gas turbine air intake systems and data center cooling to protect sensitive equipment.
Commercial HVAC: High-end Air Handling Units (AHU) in airports, luxury hotels, and Grade-A office buildings for superior IAQ (Indoor Air Quality).

With over 20 years of expertise, Chuqi Filtration is a premier source manufacturer of high-performance air filters. Our V-bank HEPA filters (H13/H14) feature an advanced low-resistance design (110 Pa), maximizing energy efficiency and service life.
Operating under ISO 9001:2015, we provide RoHS-compliant and SGS-tested products validated by CNAS laboratories. From custom frames to large-scale OEM production, we deliver reliable, high-capacity purification for semiconductor, pharmaceutical, and commercial HVAC systems worldwide.

A: The primary advantage is the High Airflow Capacity. Our V-bank design offers up to 2.5 to 3 times more filtration area than a standard deep-pleat filter. This results in minimal initial resistance (as low as 110 Pa), which significantly reduces energy consumption and extends the filter’s service life by nearly double.
A: Yes, absolutely. Our filtration materials and components are fully RoHS compliant, ensuring they are free from hazardous substances. Furthermore, our products are rigorously tested by CNAS accredited laboratories and manufactured under an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system to ensure consistent reliability for global export.
A: For our standard models, the operating temperature is ≤ 80°C (Continuous). The operating humidity can reach ≤ 100% RH (Non-condensing), making them suitable for high-humidity environments like tropical climates or specific industrial processes. If you require a high-temperature version (up to 250°C), please contact us for a customized solution.
A: We use a dual-component polyurethane sealant that creates a 100% airtight bond between the filter media and the frame (ABS or galvanized steel). Every unit undergoes a strict factory inspection to ensure there is no bypass air, which is critical for semiconductor and pharmaceutical cleanrooms where air purity is non-negotiable.
A: Yes. As a source factory with 20 years of experience, we specialize in OEM/ODM services. While our standard depths are 292mm, we can customize the width and height to fit your specific Air Handling Unit (AHU) or frame housing. We offer frame options in ABS plastic, galvanized steel, and stainless steel to meet different chemical resistance requirements.
