CLEAN AIR TECHNOLOGY FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS
Air filtration helps university leaders and facility managers create environments that promote learning. IAQ requirements change from classroom to cafeteria to laboratory — and every decision needs to balance air quality and the cost of energy and maintenance. That’s why AAF technology is inside so many facilities for higher education. Reliable energy-efficient systems make it easier to create a comfortable, productive learning environment and help protect the health and well-being of students, faculty and staff.

INDUSTRY-LEADING PRODUCTS
Sensor360®
The Sensor360 technology platform demonstrates the effectiveness of a building’s filtration system by monitoring particulate levels. The sensors measure particulate concentration in both unfiltered air and indoor air, and communicate values to a mobile/ tablet/ computer app. Facility managers receive instant notifications with actionable insights. This enables them to optimize air filtration, identify issues early and take targeted action to improve indoor air quality.
VariCel® VXL
The VariCel VXL is the highest-performing and longest-lasting box filter in the HVAC filter line. This filter was developed to offer the lowest cost of ownership thanks to its unique combination of features. The V-bank design and dual-density fiberglass media provide excellent performance under difficult operating conditions.
BioCel® VXL
The BioCel VXL is the highest-performing HVAC MERV 16 filter for surgical and critical applications and the best choice to meet sustainability and decarbonization goals. It combines near-HEPA level filtration of fine airborne contaminants and small particles with a low total cost of ownership.
PREpleat® M13
The PREpleat M13 pleated filter is significantly more efficient at capturing small particles than standard MERV 8 pleated filters. The improved efficiency and low airflow resistance make it possible to upgrade Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) while supporting compliance with LEED and CDC guidelines.
MEGApleat® M9
The MEGApleat M9 filter is the longest-lasting and strongest pleated prefilter available. Its service life is 3 to 4 times longer than standard pleated filters. The low initial resistance and high dust-holding capacity help reduce energy use to lower operating costs.
DriPak® GX
The DriPak GX bag filter was designed to maximize filter life and reduce energy use. It uses microfine fiberglass media in a proprietary tapered-pocket design. Choose it for pre- or final filtration in central air handling systems as well as prefiltration for cleanrooms.
AstroPure™
The AstroPure air purification system offers a portable, plug-and-play solution for improving indoor air quality in healthcare facilities, classrooms and other spaces. Its advanced interface allows control over cleanliness, noise and airflow while the EC motor helps conserve energy.
MEGAcel® II
The MEGAcel II mini-pleat eFRM media HEPA filter is designed to help increase cleanroom uptime and reduce risks associated with pharmaceutical manufacturing. In addition to its durability, high particulate filtration efficiency and lowest pressure drop, the MEGAcel II eFRM is the industry’s first and only eFRM media compatible with polyalphaolefin (PAO) for HVAC validation.
MEGAcel® I
The MEGAcel I eFRM is our highest performing HEPA filter. It’s designed to be an industry leader, made with AAF’s expanded FluoroResin Membrane (eFRM) media and innovative tapered aluminum separator design. These filters help optimize system efficiency and integrity while minimizing operational expenses in the most demanding applications.
INDUSTRY-LEADING BENEFITS
Helps reduce contaminants that spread viruses
Attendance and concentration are the basics of academic success. AAF filtration systems help protect the spread of airborne pollutants that can impact the health of students and staff. VariCel VXL filters provide a high level of filtration — even in humid environments — with a double layer of filter media to increase the potential of removing the particles that can spread colds and flu. The AstroPure portable air purification system makes it simple to adjust air filtration and comfort as room occupancy changes.
Helps control energy usage
School administrators may find they’re spending more on energy to run their schools than on computers and teaching materials. MEGApleat M9 filters are designed to help colleges and universities maintain air quality while controlling energy usage. Their low impact on airflow can help control total operating costs in older buildings, and new school construction needs sustainable solutions that combine energy efficiency and system durability. That’s why energy-efficient PREpleat M13 filters allow long-lasting prefiltration to extend the life of a system.
