HEPA Filtration

What is HEPA?        
HEPA Filters were developed by the Atomic Energy Commission during World War II to remove radio active dust from their plant exhaust. HEPA Filters (HIGH EFFICIENCY PARTICULATE ARRESTANCE) are now the primary filtration systems for electronic clean room assembly, isolation wards, surgical theaters, bioengineering, pharmaceutical processing, and any application where maximum reduction or removal of sub micron particulate is required.

99.97% free of particulates        
HEPA filtered air is 99.97% free of all particulate down to 0.3 microns (including bacteria, fungal and other opportunistic micro biological). Because of this, HEPA is rapidly coming into many medical applications such as isolation of patients under treatment involving immunological isolation, care for burn victims, orthopedic surgery, etc.

Efficiency        
The HEPA filter maintains its efficiency over it's two (2) to five (5) years of life. It is 99.97% efficient by particle count down to 0.3 micron, which is 1/75,000 of an inch, or 1/300 the diameter of the human hair. It becomes more efficient both above and below the 0.3 micron particle size.        

Maintenance        
HEPA does not require any cleaning or maintenance to maintain this efficiency. Because all respirable particulate including bacteria, fungi and other minute airborne contaminants are trapped in the HEPA filter, the use of HEPA  filtration, when properly applied, will significantly eliminate or reduce the deleterious health effects of airborne contaminants on the respiratory system.
