Test System for production control of filter elements (e.g. exhaust filter, HEPA filter)
For the purpose of 100% inspection of the integral filter separation efficiency during production, especially for exhaust filters and HEPA filters used in vacuum cleaners and mobile air cleaners.
Production control demands for short test cycles while using robust, compact, service-reduced and safe technologies. A test cycle includes therefore the supply, the analytical characterisation and the re-moval of the test specimen. Due to its measurement concept and high degree of automatisation, the system enables reliable testing with measurement times of 30 s.
To ensure a full traceability, determined test data can be integrated directly into in-house databases by combining the filter test system with techniques for test specimen identification (e.g., bar code or QR code scanner).
Applications
production control of integral separation efficiency of exhaust particle filters (GPF, DPF)
quality control of HEPA filters or filter cartridges of e.g. industrial vacuum systems
research and development on any small air filter elements
Standards
This system meets the requirements of:
(1) GB/T 14295-2019 – Air filters.
(2) GB/T 13554-2020 – High-efficiency air filters.
(3) GB/T 6165-2021 – HEPA filter performance testing: efficiency and resistance.
(4) ISO 29463-4 – High-efficiency air filter performance.
(5) ISO 16890 – Air filter performance standard.
(6) EN 1822 – HEPA and ULPA filter performance testing.
(7) ISO 5011 – Engine air intake filter testing.
Principle
A defined volumetric flow rate is sucked by a controlled blower from the environment through a HEPA inlet filter, the test duct and a safety filter. The test duct is composed of three functional sections, i.e., sections for i) the generation and characterisation of the test aerosol (upstream aerosol), ii) the incorporation of the test specimen (specimen adapter) and iii) the characterisation of the downstream aerosol.

Operation Instructions
System Startup:
- Ensure all devices are operational (aerosol generator, particle counters, fans).
- Calibrate aerosol measurement instruments and configure test parameters.
Testing Process:
- Start the test; the system automatically generates aerosol and measures separation efficiency and pressure drop.
Data Recording and Reporting:
- The system software generates and stores test reports, including separation efficiency, pressure drop, and relevant quality data.
Experimental Procedure
Preparation Stage:
- Verify all instruments and devices are ready and calibrated.
- Install the filter element in the custom adapter and confirm settings.
Testing Stage:
- Automated measurement of aerosol concentration, particle filtration efficiency, and pressure drop occurs.
Result Analysis and Reporting:
- Reports are automatically generated, including key metrics and compliance with production quality standards.
Maintenance Information
Regularly check aerosol generators, particle counters, and sensors.
Ensure software and database connections are functioning properly.
Maintain clean ducts and adapters to guarantee measurement accuracy.
