Poly Sorb Carbon Filter

Poly-Sorb® Activated Carbon Pleated Filters

Poly Sorb Carbon Filter

Poly-Sorb® Activated Carbon Pleated Filters are an excellent economical choice for molecular air filtration applications. Each filter utilizes a technologically advanced media that incorporates activated carbon combined with non-woven polyester to provide odor and particulate capture. The activated carbon filter targets applications where odor removal and moderate molecular filtration is desired.

These high-performance Poly-Sorb® Activated Carbon filters maintain the perfect balance of effectively and efficiently capturing and removing odors, pollutants and particulates using your HVAC system with excellent air flow.

The Poly-Sorb® Activated Carbon Pleated Filter utilizes a geometrically formed pleat pack. Each pleat pack is further strengthened with expanded metal backer. The pack is then sealed into a heavy-duty, moisture-resistant kraft board frame. The design and construction process combines to produce the best all around carbon performance.

The activated carbon used in the Poly-Sorb® is a coconut shell material with an activity level of 60% or more when tested with carbon tetrachloride. The pleated filter is made with synthetic media that is chemically enriched with 200 grams/sq. meter of activated carbon.
