HEPA/ULPA Filters In-process Testing

EN 1822 Autoscan Test Rig. (TOPAS)

➢ All Ast-2 panel filter, TM modules filters, RSC, RSR filters.

➢ Test filters with PSL (Polystyrene Latex, 0.14 µm).

➢ Limitation of machine, minimum filter is 305mm X 305mm. Airflow must be
above 150 CMH.

Process flow

Pleating Assembly PU Cleaning EN 1822 Gasket Packing

EN 1822 Autoscan Test Rig. (Testing Procedures)

➢ Feed filter into test rig.

➢ Set filter information and test parameter, e.g. filter size, classification and air
flow.

➢ Run system. Scanning probes will move along filter surface area to detect
leaking.

➢ System provide the filter test result once scan completed.

EN1822 Test Report

➢ Pressure drop.

o Follow catalogue specification,
or as per customer requirement.

➢ EN 1822-4

o Leakage test. To confirm the
filter element either no leakage
(PASSED) or leakage (FAIL).

➢ EN 1822-5

o Integral efficiency test.
Determining the efficiency &
classification of filter element.

Leak Repair Procedure Leakage
Found
➢ Visual Smoke Test
Water Based Glue
o Use polyfunctional alcohol as
the challenge aerosol to
detect any leak from filters
with projected light.

o Repair leakage with water
based glue, which will
became transparent after
cured.

o Repair criteria according to
EN 1822-4. (8.5.4).
