Vacuum cleaner filter efficiency test equipment
Category：Filter Cartridge Filtration Tester
Introduction
Application
This testing equipment is designed for evaluating the filtration efficiency of vacuum cleaners, air purifiers, and industrial filtration systems. It is suitable for:
Quality control during production
Laboratory research on filter performance
Performance testing of HEPA and ULPA filters
Comparative evaluation of different dust types and particle sizes
The system measures upstream and downstream particle concentrations to determine the dust separation efficiency accurately. It is ideal for scenarios requiring standardized, repeatable testing of filter media and complete devices.
Standards Compliance
The equipment is designed to comply with international and industry standards:
ASTM F1977 – Standard test method for initial fractional filtration efficiency of vacuum cleaner systems
ASTM F3150 – HEPA filtration system performance for residential and commercial vacuum cleaners
