Product catalog summary
Introduction
United Air Specialists (UAS) specializes in high-quality industrial filtration solutions, featuring ProTura® Nanofiber technology. This technology enhances the efficiency and energy savings of dust collectors, offering superior performance and value.
Specifications and Technology
ProTura® Nanofiber technology involves a fine web-like coating of fibers on the filter media surface, improving initial efficiency, air cleanliness, and energy savings. It captures submicron particles, reduces emissions, and extends filter life by enhancing dust cake release.
Performance and Efficiency
ProTura® Nanofiber filters achieve a MERV 15 rating, indicating high efficiency in capturing particles between 0.3 to 1.0 microns. They offer low pressure drop, reducing energy costs and extending filter life, outperforming commodity filters in efficiency and energy savings.
MERV Ratings and Dust Collector Performance
MERV ratings indicate filter efficiency based on particle size removal. Effective surface-loading capacity minimizes total emissions, with ProTura® Nanofiber filters balancing high efficiency and low pressure drop.
Filter Media Options
UAS offers various filter media options, including:
  • ProTura® Nanofiber: High efficiency for fine dusts.
  • ProTura® Nanofiber Fire Retardant: Flame retardant for applications with sparks.
  • ProTura® Nanofiber Wide Pleat: Wide pleat spacing for fibrous particles.
  • Cellulose/Polyester Blend Fire Retardant: Enhanced performance for coarse particulates.
  • Spunbond Polyester: High-strength, moisture-resistant media.
  • Thermally-fused Spunbond Polyester with ePTFE Membrane: Ultra-high efficiency and excellent particle release.
Applications
These filters are suitable for industries such as abrasive blasting, chemical processing, and food processing, designed to handle various dust types and environmental conditions.
Advantages Over Commodity Filters
ProTura Nanofiber filters offer:
  • Efficiency: MERV 15 rating, up to 50% more efficient on submicron particles than MERV 13 nanofibers.
  • Durability: Finer fibers are more durable and adhere better to the media substrate.
  • Cost Savings: Longer filter life and reduced cleaning cycles lead to savings in filter replacement and compressed air usage.
  • Energy Savings: Reduced pressure build-up decreases energy requirements.
  • Cleaner Air: Enhanced efficiency and fewer cleaning cycles result in lower emissions and a healthier environment.
Manufacturing and Quality Assurance
UAS uses state-of-the-art production processes and advanced research facilities to ensure high-quality cartridge filters, supporting continuous innovation and quality assurance.
Global Presence and Support
UAS has a global presence with offices in China, Germany, the UK, and the USA, providing customer support and expertise in air quality solutions.
Conclusion
UAS's ProTura Nanofiber filters offer significant advantages in efficiency, cost savings, and environmental impact, making them a trusted provider of industrial filtration solutions.

Replacement Cartridge Filters for Dust Collectors-6

Surface loading excels over depth loading UAS ProTura® Nanofiber filters feature an ultra-thin surface layer of synthetic fibers so extremely fine, they are measured in nanometers, or fractions of a micron. The layer provides excellent surface-loading capabilities due to the nano-size interfiber pores that make up their web-like surface coating. ProTura Nanofiber, therefore, acts as a shield to prevent submicron sized particles from entering and becoming embedded within the filter’s substrate media. As a result, dust particles are easily released from the surface layer while the media substrate...
