AFC 132 QC HEPA Production Quality-Control Test System
Automated production quality-control system for integral efficiency and leakage testing of small HEPA filter elements that cannot be scanned, with approximately 30-second cycles and pass/fail evaluation.
Model Overview
| Model | System role | Primary measurements | Standards / application fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| AFC 132 QC HEPA | Automated small-HEPA production test system | Integral filtration efficiency, pressure drop and leakage-related pass/fail evaluation | Production quality control for non-scannable small HEPA elements |
Key Features
Fast production cycle
Supply, measurement and result evaluation are designed for approximately 30-second test cycles.
Integral efficiency method
Determines integral efficiency for filter geometries that cannot be scanned reliably.
Configurable pass/fail criteria
Nominal efficiency targets can be configured for different HEPA product classes.
Low aerosol loading
The particle-counting method minimises test-aerosol loading compared with visual oil-thread procedures.
Exchangeable adapters
Customer-specific filter adapters support different small-element geometries.
High automation
The compact system is designed for 24/7 production use with limited operator interaction.
