The 100% high-impact polystyrene frame is incinerable for clean disposal, and the lightweight construction is designed to drop directly into side-access housings or front-load holding frames as a replacement for heavier 12″ competitive high-efficiency filters and bag filters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen MicroMAX PL6 is specified\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6-inch filter slots and AHU housings\u003c\/strong\u003e — built-for-purpose form factor for systems sized to 6″ depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplacing 12″ rigid cell or bag filters\u003c\/strong\u003e — reduces filter weight, freight cost, and storage footprint without giving up media area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSide-access commercial AHUs\u003c\/strong\u003e — the 13\/16″ peripheral header is built specifically for side-loaded installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisposal-sensitive facilities\u003c\/strong\u003e — 100% polystyrene frame is fully incinerable, no metal separation required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable-air-volume (VAV) commercial HVAC\u003c\/strong\u003e — rigid construction maintains performance under airflow swings; rated to 125% of face velocity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHospitals, pharmaceutical, and lab facilities\u003c\/strong\u003e — proven media reliability in critical IAQ environments; antimicrobial-treated media available as a factory option\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign and construction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedia:\u003c\/strong\u003e Micro fiberglass paper, dual-density (coarse upstream, fine downstream)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water-repellent formulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePleat separators:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thermoplastic glue beads (consistent pleat spacing, aerodynamic airflow)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% high-impact polystyrene (lightweight, rigid, incinerable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedia-pack-to-frame seal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid polyurethane (eliminates bypass)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeader:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single 13\/16″ peripheral header on the air-entering side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extended-surface minipleat, 6″ depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEfficiency rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e MERV 14 per ASHRAE 52.2-2007\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum operating temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 175°F \/ 82°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum face velocity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 125% of rated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended final pressure drop:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5″ w.g.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum burst pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.0″ w.g.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListings:\u003c\/strong\u003e UL Classified per UL Standard 900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePleat orientation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Width and height are interchangeable; pleats can be installed in either direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 filters per case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat MERV 14 captures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVery high-efficiency filtration capturing most sub-micron particles including smoke, bacteria, and many viruses.
