What is ISO 16890-2- Air filters for general ventilation about?
ISO 16890 discusses air filters for general ventilation. ISO 16890-2 is the second part of the ISO 16890 multi-series and discusses the measurement of fractional efficiency and airflow resistance.
ISO 16890-2 specifies the aerosol production, the test equipment, and the test methods used for measuring fractional efficiency and airflow resistance of air filters for general ventilation.
The test method described in ISO 16890-2 of ISO 16890 is applicable for airflow rates between 0,25 m3/s (900 m3/h, 530 ft3/min) and 1,5 m3/s (5 400 m3/h, 3 178 ft3/min), referring to a test rig with a nominal face area of 610 mm × 610 mm (24,0-inch × 24,0 inch). It is intended for use in conjunction with ISO 16890-1, ISO 16890-3, and ISO 16890-4.
Who is ISO 16890-2 - Air filters for general ventilation for?
ISO 16890-2 on air filters for general ventilation is useful for:
- Air Filter manufacturers
- Quality control personnel
- Air filter suppliers
Why should you use ISO 16890-2 - Air filters for general ventilation?
Air filters for general ventilation are widely used in heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning applications of buildings. In this application, air filters significantly influence the indoor air quality and, hence, the health of people, by reducing the concentration of particulate matter.
The ISO 16890 series describes the equipment, materials, technical specifications, requirements, Qualifications, and procedures to produce the laboratory performance data and efficiency classification based upon the measured fractional efficiency converted into a particulate matter efficiency (ePM) reporting system.
ISO 16890-2 provides you with a test method for measuring fractional efficiency and airflow resistance of air filters for general ventilation and guides you about aerosol production.
ISO 16890-2 guides you with the test requirements that include test device requirements, test materials, and test rig requirements. ISO 16890-2 also guides you with the data reduction, calculations, and reporting results.
ISO 16890-2 helps you in improving the efficiency of your air filters for general ventilation.
