Precision Pak
Spun Glass or Synthetic Media Bag Filters
Bulletin PB1100-0606
General
Astr Frames are riveted together to form a bank
and may be installed for upstream or downstream
service. K-Trac Filter Framing Modules are
especially suitable for medium to large built-up filter
banks. Smaller systems and systems with minimum
upstream access space are best served using
Sureseal Side Access Housings.
Precision Pak extended surface bag filters are
designed for use in most commercial or industrial
HVAC systems where medium to high efficiency fil-
tration is required. Precision Pak filters are available
in two media types: lofted fiberglass and micro-fine
synthetic media with average efficiency ranges of
55%, 65%, 85%, and 95% per ASHRAE Standard
52.1 test methods. Offered MERV 10-15 according
to ASHRAE Std. 52.2. Operating face velocities up
to 625 fpm are available for all models. Precision
Pak filters in depths up to 22" are suited for variable
air volume systems. Filters with greater depth are
not recommended.
Physical Data
Media: Lofted fiberglass or micro-fine synthetic
Media Backer: Non-woven polyester
Precision Pak filters are UL 900 Class 2 listed as a
standard and are also available in UL Class I in both
synthetic and glass media.

Modules, Sureseal Side Access Housings, or in
similar existing hardware.
Actual Header Face Size: Nominal size less
5/8" (e.g., a nominal 24" x 24" filter header is
actually 23-3/8" x 23-3/8")

Notes:
1. PD represents clean pressure drop in inches w.g. for synthetic media filters.
2. The recommended final pressure drop for all models is 1.0 inch w.g.
3. Gross media area is approximately 7% more than the net area listed.
4. Values shown may be averages or estimates typical of products styles.

Application Guidelines
Precision Pak filters should be
installed with pockets vertical
wherever possible. It is acceptable
to install 24" x 12" face size filters
with pockets horizontal if necessary
to meet the size requirements of
the filter banks.
Gasketed Headers
Precision Pak filters installed in
Flanders K-Trac Filter Framing
Modules or Sureseal Side Access
Housings require polyfoam gaskets
on opposite header sides to
prevent air bypass. To specify
Precision Pak filters with gasketed headers, add suffix “SA” (side access), “GU” (upstream), “GD” (downstream)
and “GS” (sides) to the model number.
Prefilters
Properly selected bag filters without prefilters will generally require change out annually in typical HVAC
applications. Because of the frequent maintenance expense and increase in fan kW input using prefilters,
they are often recommended with 85% and 95% efficient Precision Pak final filters. However, the energy
cost to operate a prefilter seldom warrants their use with 55% or 65% filters.
