Overview: Columbus Industries (CI) manufactures performance-engineered aluminum air filters designed for various applications, including kitchen ventilation and electronic equipment protection. These filters are constructed from layers of aluminum mesh with differing densities, enhancing filtration efficiency while maintaining low airflow resistance.

Specifications: The filters consist of multiple layers of aluminum mesh, with the number of layers tailored to specific applications. They are available in various shapes and sizes, including circular, rectangular, domed, and flat configurations. The filters are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to maintain, typically requiring only mild detergent and warm water for cleaning.

Performance and Efficiency: The baffle-like surfaces of the mesh direct air to impurity-trapping surfaces, increasing the holding capacity and efficiency of the filters. For applications involving less tacky impurities, a specially compounded adhesive coating is applied to enhance dirt and dust retention.

Applications: CI aluminum filters are suitable for a wide range of applications, including kitchen exhaust systems, electronic equipment ventilation, air conditioning systems, and more. They also provide radio frequency interference (RFI) shielding when used in electronic equipment housings.

Product Variants: CI offers several types of filters, including Type 62, 82, and 102, with varying numbers of inner and outer layers. The FITS® (Fit It To Size) system allows for custom-sized filters using bonded layers of aluminum mesh available in rolls or sheets.

Advantages: The all-aluminum construction offers strength, rigidity, and a long lifespan. The filters are designed for easy handling and maintenance, with pre-engineered frames available for quick assembly and delivery.
