What is the service life of a pleated air filter?

What is the service life of a pleated air filter?

The service life of a pleated air filter is affected by many factors and there is no fixed unified time. The following is a general situation:
1. Primary efficiency pleated air filter:
 Generally speaking, if the air quality of the use environment is good, the frequency of use is normal and the maintenance is proper, its service life is about 1-3 months. However, if the air quality of the use environment is poor, such as in industrial plants, construction sites, and other dusty places, or the frequency of use is very high, its service life may be shortened to less than 1 month or even shorter.
2. Medium efficiency pleated air filter:
 Under normal use environment and use frequency, the service life of medium efficiency pleated air filters is usually 3-6 months. However, if the primary filter at the front end does not play a good pre-filtration role, increasing the filtering burden of the medium efficiency filter, or if there are more harmful gases, oil smoke, and other special pollutants in the use environment, its service life may be shortened accordingly.
3. High-efficiency pleated air filter:
- High-efficiency pleated air filters have higher filtration efficiency and relatively longer service life. Under ideal conditions of use, the service life can reach more than 1 year. However, if the use environment has extremely high requirements for air quality, such as in clean rooms in electronic chip manufacturing, biomedicine, and other industries, it may be necessary to test and replace high-efficiency folding air filters more frequently to ensure that the air quality meets production requirements.
It should be noted that the above time is for reference only, and the actual service life needs to be comprehensively judged based on the specific use environment, maintenance conditions, and other factors. It is recommended to regularly check the resistance, filtration effect, and other indicators of the folding air filter. When the performance of the filter is significantly reduced or cannot meet the use requirements, replace the filter in time.
