Two proprietary scales are used to rate sub-HEPA air filters. The Home Depot scale is known as filter performance rating (FPR), and is reduced from a 1–10 scale to only 5, 7, 9, and 10. It measures ability to capture large particles, small particles, and weight change over the lifetime of the filter. [2]
The paddle wheel sensor consists of a freely rotating wheel/impeller with embedded magnets which are perpendicular to the flow and will rotate when inserted in the flowing medium. As the magnets in the blades spin past the sensor, the paddle wheel meter generates a frequency and voltage signal which is proportional to the flow rate.
We put the best air purifiers from Lenovo, Honeywell, Winix, and more to the test to see which held up best (and actually purified the air for you). See what our product scientist has to say.
MAF sensor in a 2006-2015 automotive diesel engine. A mass (air) flow sensor (MAF) is a sensor used to determine the mass flow rate of air entering a fuel-injected internal combustion engine. The air mass information is necessary for the engine control unit (ECU) to balance and deliver the correct fuel mass to the engine. Air changes its ...
HEPA filters are designed to arrest very fine particles effectively, but they do not filter out gasses and odor molecules. Circumstances requiring filtration of volatile organic compounds, chemical vapors, or cigarette, pet or flatulence odors call for the use of an activated carbon (charcoal) or other type of filter instead of or in addition to a HEPA filter.

A rate sensor is a sensor that measures a rate (or rate of change). It may refer to: Angular rate sensor. Rate gyro; Yaw-rate sensor; Heart rate sensor; Breath rate ...
The rate of filtration affects the rate of clogging with high filter rates causing faster build up. Pilot tests demonstrate that the higher the filter rate the lower the filter area whilst increasing filter rate reduces the time to breakthrough, reduces the time to head loss (increases head loss) and results in shorter runs and lower optimum ...
The first part of the filter's classification indicates the series using the letters N, R, or P to indicate the filter's resistance to filtration efficiency degradation when exposed to oil-based or oil-like aerosols (e.g., lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.). [17] Definitions and intended use for each series is indicated below. [18]
