How to maintain and use a folding air filter?

The maintenance and use of a folding air filter can be carried out from the following aspects:
I. Inspection before installation
Before installing a folding air filter, the following inspections should be carried out:
1. Check whether the filter packaging is intact and whether there is any damage or deformation. If there is a problem with the packaging, the supplier should be contacted in time for processing.
2. Check whether the model and specifications of the filter are consistent with the use requirements. Ensure that the filter's filtration grade, size, and other parameters meet the design requirements of the air disinfector or ventilation system.
3. Check whether the appearance of the filter is damaged or stained. If there is obvious damage or stains on the surface of the filter, it may affect its filtering effect and should be replaced in time.
II. Correct installation
1. Install the folding air filter correctly according to the installation instructions of the air disinfector or ventilation system. Ensure that the filter is installed in the correct direction, well sealed, and there will be no air leakage.
2. During the installation process, be careful to avoid collision or extrusion of the filter to avoid damage to the filter structure and filter material.
3. After installation, check whether the filter is installed firmly and whether it is loose or shaking. If the installation is not firm, it should be adjusted and fixed in time.
III. Precautions for daily use
1. Avoid excessive load
- When using an air disinfector or ventilation system, avoid overloading the filter. Do not adjust the airflow too much to avoid exceeding the filter's designed filtering capacity and affecting the filtering effect and service life.
- At the same time, avoid placing heavy objects on the filter or performing other improper operations to avoid damaging the filter.
2. Check the operating status regularly
- Regularly check the operating status of the air disinfector or ventilation system, including wind speed, noise, temperature, and other indicators. If any abnormality is found, the cause should be promptly investigated and the filter should be checked for blockage, damage, and other problems.
- Pay attention to the changes in the resistance of the filter. When the resistance of the filter increases, it will affect the circulation of air, resulting in a decrease in the performance of the air disinfector or ventilation system. If the resistance increases significantly, check whether the filter needs to be cleaned or replaced in time.
IV. Regular cleaning
1. Cleaning frequency
- Clean the folding air filter regularly according to the air quality and frequency of use in the use environment. Generally speaking, primary and medium-efficiency filters can be cleaned once every 1-2 months, while high-efficiency filters are not recommended to be cleaned frequently to avoid damaging the filter material.
- If the air quality of the environment is poor or the resistance of the filter increases rapidly, the frequency of cleaning can be appropriately increased.
2. Cleaning method
- For washable folding air filters, clean water or neutral detergent can be used for cleaning. Remove the filter from the air disinfector or ventilation system, gently brush the dust and stains on the surface of the filter with a soft brush, and then rinse it with clean water.
- Be careful not to use overheated water or strong detergents to avoid damaging the filter material. After cleaning, the filter should be dried before installation and use.
- For non-washable high-efficiency filters, if there is dust on the surface, you can use a vacuum cleaner to gently remove the dust but do not wash or wipe it with water.
V. Timely replacement
1. Replacement timing
- When the resistance of the folding air filter increases significantly, the filtration efficiency decreases, or it is damaged or deformed, the filter should be replaced in time.
- You can refer to the instruction manual of the air disinfector or ventilation system to understand the filter replacement cycle and method. At the same time, you can also observe and judge according to the actual situation, and replace the filter in time to ensure the air quality and the normal operation of the equipment.
2. Replacement method
- When replacing the filter, you should first turn off the power of the air disinfector or ventilation system, and then remove the old filter and install the new filter in the correct way.
- When installing a new filter, pay attention to checking whether the filter model and specifications are correct, whether the installation direction is correct, and whether the seal is good. After the installation is completed, check whether the filter is installed firmly and whether there is any air leakage.
In short, the correct maintenance and use method can extend the service life of the folding air filter, improve its filtering effect, and provide a guarantee for the normal operation of the air disinfector or ventilation system.
