Tie your filter classification back to the pore structure that produces it

Mean flow pore, bubble point and full distribution on HEPA, cabin and HVAC filter media.

Model: MPA-100 Micropore · Industry: Air Filtration

Technology principle

An efficiency test reports what a medium did on the day it was tested. Pore size distribution reports why it did it, and whether the next roll will behave the same way. Media producers who track both catch a drift in fibre diameter or calendering pressure while it is still a process adjustment, instead of discovering it as a failed classification on finished product.

Applications

  • HEPA and ULPA media QC
  • Automotive cabin and engine air
  • HVAC panel and pocket media
  • Roll-to-roll uniformity

Key capabilities

  • Lightweight, compact and ergonomically engineered, the M19 Micropore Analyzer (MPA-100) pairs a 15" capacitive touchscreen with enhanced pressure- and flow-control hardware, so operators run a full air filtration test sequence with minimal training and markedly shorter cycle times. Available in aluminum or stainless-steel variants, it ships with real-time remote support, USB connectivity and remote-control automation. Domestic manufacturing in India and the USA keeps maintenance cost and downtime low, and a 2-year extended warranty is available.
  • Modern, low-training user interface
  • Lightweight and portable chassis
  • IP65 rated · GAMP 5 compliant
  • Three secure user levels — Operator, Supervisor and Administrator
  • Versatile connectivity — USB, Ethernet and Wireless LAN
  • Flexible reporting — built-in thermal printer or network / PDF / CSV export

Frequently asked questions

Does this replace our efficiency testing?

No, and it should not. Efficiency testing measures what is captured; porometry measures the structure that captures it. They answer different questions, and the structural measurement is what lets you control a process rather than inspect its output. M19 builds a separate Particulate Filtration Efficiency Analyzer for the efficiency side.

How many positions across a roll should we sample?

That depends on your web width and how your classification is specified. Our application team will work it out with you against your own specification rather than quoting a generic number.
