OVERVIEW

The Side Access air filter housing is a permanent housing designed to specifically
accommodate ASHRAE rated air filters. Filter efficiencies range anywhere from
30-90% by ASHRAE test method.

This is the reference housing or customized depth housing is manufactured
with galvanized steel- optional 304L stainless steel and is intermittently welded
together. All seams are silicone caulked for airtight seal.

The unit is a one-piece construction with filter track extrusion permitting a 2”, 4”
prefilter track and a 1” final filter header track. Each unit is custom manufactured
to meet specific end user requirements.

APPLICATION

PGM’s Side Access filter housing is designed for and not limited to the following
applications:
Air Handlers
Industrial Plants
HVAC Systems
General Filtration Applications

PERFORMANCE

The Side Access housing accommodates different types and efficiencies of
air filters. See individual filter ASHRAE rating standards to determine specific
efficiency. The recommended system static pressure range for the housing is
+/- 3” to +/-5” W.G.

Positive tension door locks make filter servicing easy. Airtight gaskets properly
located inside the door ensures a positive seal. When the housing is fully loaded
and the door sealed properly, the housing efficiency is approximately to that of
the filters.
