About this F7 Rigid Bag Filter Compact Cassette

The rigid bag filter is a V‑shaped wedge air filter, available in F7 filtration grade and housed in a durable hard plastic case. Rigid bag filters offer high dust holding capacity, low pressure drop and energy efficiency. This compact design allows the filter to replace standard synthetic bag filters or panel filters, and reduces labour costs due to less frequent filter changes.

  • Moisture-resistant microfine glass fibre filter media
  • Longer service life with lowest total cost of ownership (TCO)
  • Energy efficient design with lightweight, rigid filter construction
  • Ideal for supply, exhaust and recirculation applications
  • Low pressure drop with high dust holding capacity

Rigid Bag Construction

Rigid bag filters are cassette‑style cartridge filters containing individual 24 mm deep microfine glass fibre media packs, arranged in a V‑shaped formation and secured with polyurethane adhesive. The V‑bank layout provides a high media surface area while maintaining a low pressure drop. The media packs are housed within a lightweight, rigid plastic case that delivers high durability, long service life, and full corrosion resistance.

Rigid Bag Filter Usage and Applications

Rigid bag filters are suitable for retrofitting in place of ordinary bag filters and for installation in most HVAC, HEVAC and Air Handling Unit (AHU) applications. They are frequently used in general air‑conditioning systems where space is limited, in systems handling large air volumes, and as pre‑filtration for higher‑efficiency filters.

Technical Information

Rigid bag filters deliver significantly higher performance than traditional bag filters, with measurable gains in arrestance, fine particle efficiency, dust holding capacity, pressure drop stability and service life. Their rigid V‑bank construction prevents the under‑inflation and turbulence issues that can affect conventional pocket bags in low or variable airflow conditions, allowing them to maintain consistent efficiency. The microfine glass fibre media packs provide a large, stable surface area, resulting in low initial resistance and high airflow capacity, while the robust plastic housing ensures long‑term durability and corrosion free operation. The microfine glass‑fibre media is inherently moisture‑resistant, eliminating any risk of paper‑media deterioration while providing stable filtration performance and high burst‑pressure protection even under demanding airflow or humidity conditions.
