    European Normalisation Standards Recognise The Following Filter Classes

    Uploaded by

    David Martin
    The document outlines 17 European filter classes from G1 to U17 that are defined by their particulate retention performance levels and particulate size thresholds. The classes include primary filters, secondary filters, semi-HEPA filters, HEPA filters, and ULPA filters. Each class is specified by its minimum particulate retention percentage, whether the performance test uses average or minimum values, the particulate size it approaches 100% retention of, and the test standard used.
