THE MAGIC IS IN THE MEDIA

Camfils Megalam EnerGuard utilises the best features of all HEPA media types. EnerGuard incorporates the long life properties of glass fiber with the low energy consumption of membrane media to ensure optimal performance.

UNIQUE FILTER MEDIA DEVELOPED AFTER YEARS OF CONTINUOUS RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT

Camfil’s EnerGuard media is resistant to damage during handling and operation while still providing the efficiencies required to maintain ISO cleanroom class levels.

FITS ALL EXISTING CONFIGURATIONS

Immediately substitutable into existing filter configurations, requiring no changes of other filter components or materials, installation or testing and validation processes, or HVAC and filter equipment.

What Makes EnerGuard the Only Choice ...

Robust construction

Filter failure rate at installation close to 0%.

The robust nature of the filter significantly reduces the chances of product failure and expensive cleanroom downtime. Filters safeguarded from damage during transportation, installation, handling and filter service translate to cleanroom operating profits.

Long Service Life

Service life is consistent with glass fiber filters; 2-3 times the life of membrane media when periodically aerosol challenged. Depth-loading media increases the effective area of particle capture to maintain consistent low pressure drop and increases the period between filter replacements.

Energy Cost Savings

Savings of 30% to 50% vs traditional glass fiber filters.

Camfil’s new EnerGuard filter is specifically designed and tested to ensure the lowest possible energy consumption.

Process Safety

Certified for Life Sciences and Food & Beverage industries.

When you see the ProSafe symbol you can be sure the filter materials and testing meet stringent requirements for safety, traceability and control. See page 6 for more information about ProSafe.

PROTECT OPERATIONS

Complete range of efficiencies to suit all current operations.

Available in H13, H14 and U15 efficiencies.

Specific grades developed for the individual demands of Life Science and Microelectronic industries.

Development

Innovation is something we strive towards everyday.

Megalam EnerGuard utilised the R&D capabilities Camfil has to offer around the world, to bring our customers the latest innovation in HEPA filtration.

MEGALAM ENERGUARD TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP

ENERGUARD DURABILITY, HANDLING FORGIVENESS FOR MORE OPERATION EFFICIENCY

Protect your process, product, profits and people from inadvertent filter damage. Megalam EnerGuard filters offer outstanding robustness to reduce the risk of airborne particulate leakage from tears, punctures and rips in the filter media which is common from mishandling during installation and validation.

Typically 3% to 20% of glass fiber media filters are replaced at installation due to inappropriate handling. Megalam EnerGuard will not only eliminate the expense of replacement filters and reduce the need for spares, but most importantly will reduce cleanroom downtime while waiting for re-installation and re-validation.

MEGALAM ENERGUARD VS ALTERNATIVES

THE HOLISTIC TCO APPROACH

When talking about the Total Cost of Ownership of a filter its our view that you should not only look at the filter and
replacement cost but also the energy cost as well as the related labour and disposal costs. The Megalam EnerGuard
offers the lowest TCO of any HEPA panel filter on the market.

TCO SAVINGS UP TO 40%

TCO refers to the Total Cost of Ownership associated with your filter during a set lifetime. Not only does TCO account for your filter cost but incorporates: filter replacement costs, energy costs, labour costs and disposal costs. The Megalam EnerGuard can achieve 30% savings against glass fiber and 40% against membrane media.

PROSAFE MEANS PROCESS SAFETY — YOUR PROCESS

The life sciences industry faces tough demands in achieving clean air. Be careful choosing an air filter. The filter must protect your products from particulate contamination, and must prevent undesirable materials from entering into your process.

When you see the ProSafe symbol, you know the filter has been made with qualified materials that offer the maximum process safety. There is full material and process traceability and control.

Designed for process safety.
Every filter is scanned and leak tested at the factory.
Thorough qualification and testing of all raw materials.
ISO 846 approved (for microbial inertness).
VDI6022 approved for moisture and corrosion resistance in hygienic HVAC applications.
Chemical inertness to all common cleaning agents.
Formaldehyde, phthalate, and bisphenol A (BPA)-free materials.
