New Basket Air Filters extend surface area to enhance fiber-optic electronics cooling
New Basket Air Filters, developed by Universal Air Filter Co., enhance cooling capability in fiber-optic electronics equipment enclosures by significantly expanding air filter surface area.
Basket Air Filter’s unique design can more than double surface area, extending either inside or outside the enclosure. A one-piece fabricated frame and grid design assures sturdiness in standing up to the fiber-optic equipment enclosure’s high airflow requirements. Hexagon, square, rectangle, and diamond grid patterns, all achieving approximately 85 percent openness, may be selected.
A variety of foam media options are available for integration in Basket Air Filters, including Quadrafoam. Quadrafoam offers high dust arrestance and low resistance where permanent, cleanable filters are most desirable. NEBS-compliant Quadrafoam air filters are flame retardant and meet UL 94 HF-1 standards for electronics.
Universal Air Filter provides customized solutions and engineering support during the design phase of product development. Universal’s air filter products meet the following standards and classifications: UL 94 HF-1; UL 900 Class 2, CE; Telcordia NEBS GR-78-CORE and GR-63-CORE; and FMVSS 302.
