• Fan horsepower accounts for approximately 40% of the total energy
costs of HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) systems.
• Historically, high efficiency air filtration has been achieved by using
a highly restrictive filter media, which both increased the cost of
filtration as well as the energy required to push the air through the
restrictive media.
• Dynamic technology eliminates the need for highly restrictive media
by using an actively-polarized technology to create binding sites for
sub-micron particles, reducing the bhp required and saving energy.
• Cost-savings are typically realized when replacing 85-95% efficient
filters.
How Dynamic Works
Passive mechanisms - because there is a media, there is passive collection
Polarization and electrostatic attractionpolarized fibers collect polarized and charged particles
charged center screen collects polarized and charged particles
Agglomeration- Natural process (Brownian Motion) greatly
accelerated by the field inside the air cleaner. Polarized particles
attract each other and charged particles to form clusters that are
more easily captured.

In addition to energy savings…
• Increased efficiency in sub-micron particle removal
• >98% at 0.5 micron, single pass
• Independently tested – ASHRAE 52.2
• Superior dust-loading
• 7-10X dust loading capacity of a cartridge filter
• Extends maintenance intervals
• Reduces landfill content
• Can reduce volatile organic compounds (odors) in
ambient air streams, often eliminating costly carbon
which also adds to energy costs
