Technical Data

Clean-Link supplies V-bank HEPA filters for high-airflow HVAC systems, industrial ventilation, data centers, laboratories, pharmaceutical facilities, cleanroom-related HVAC systems, commercial buildings, and OEM equipment.

V-bank construction uses multiple mini-pleat media packs arranged in a V-shaped configuration. This design increases media area within a compact filter footprint and can help balance high filtration efficiency, airflow capacity, pressure drop, and service life.

Clean-Link can support H13 and H14 project requirements, rigid frame configurations, custom dimensions, gasket options, airflow and pressure drop review, and OEM or project-based V-bank HEPA filter supply.

What Is a V-Bank HEPA Filter?

A V-bank HEPA filter uses multiple mini-pleat filter packs arranged in a V-shaped configuration inside a rigid frame.

This design increases the effective media area without requiring a much larger filter face.

The larger media area can help support:

Higher airflow
Lower media face velocity
Pressure drop optimization
High-efficiency filtration
Compact installation
Longer service potential under suitable loading conditions

The actual performance depends on filter dimensions, media area, efficiency class, pleat geometry, rated airflow, and system conditions.

Why Use V-Bank Construction?

High Media Area in a Compact Footprint

The main advantage of V-bank construction is that multiple media packs can be installed within one rigid filter frame.

This creates more filtration surface area than a flat filter of similar face dimensions.

Higher media area can help reduce the velocity through the media and support better airflow handling.

Suitable for High Airflow

V-bank filters are often used in systems where a large amount of air must pass through a limited filter face area.

Typical high-airflow applications include:

Large commercial AHUs
Industrial ventilation systems
Data center HVAC
Laboratory ventilation
Critical building ventilation
OEM air handling equipment

The actual rated airflow should always be confirmed from the filter specification rather than assumed from the V-bank structure alone.

Pressure Drop Optimization

A V-bank HEPA filter can provide more media area than some conventional flat or compact filter formats.

This can help optimize pressure drop for the required airflow.

However, V-bank does not automatically mean “low pressure drop.”

Actual resistance depends on:

Media area
Efficiency class
Filter depth
Number of media packs
Pleat geometry
Rated airflow
Face velocity
Filter loading

Clean-Link can review airflow and pressure drop requirements for project-based V-bank HEPA filters.

V-Bank HEPA vs Mini-Pleat HEPA Filters

V-bank HEPA filters usually use mini-pleat media packs, but the overall filter construction is different from a conventional single-pack mini-pleat HEPA filter.

Feature	V-Bank HEPA Filter	Standard Mini-Pleat HEPA Filter
Media pack arrangement	Multiple packs in V configuration	Single flat or compact pack
Media area	High within compact footprint	High within compact depth
Typical airflow	Often suited to higher airflow	Depends on face area and design
Filter structure	Rigid multi-pack frame	Flat or compact frame
Typical applications	Large AHUs, industrial HVAC, data centers	Cleanrooms, terminal units, HVAC
Installation depth	Usually deeper than flat mini-pleat	Often more compact
Pressure drop	Depends on media area and airflow	Depends on media area and airflow

Neither construction is automatically better.

The right choice depends on system airflow, available depth, filter bank design, efficiency requirement, pressure drop target, and replacement strategy.

H13 and H14 V-Bank HEPA Filters

Clean-Link can support H13 and H14 V-bank HEPA filter projects depending on the application and confirmed specification.

Efficiency should be selected together with:

Rated airflow
Initial pressure drop
Final pressure drop
Fan capability
Filter bank dimensions
Prefiltration
Operating hours
Dust concentration
Sealing
Testing requirements

For high-efficiency filter classification and testing, ISO 29463 provides relevant technical context.

Frame and Construction Options

V-bank HEPA filters require rigid frames to support multiple media packs.

Depending on project needs, Clean-Link can support different configurations.

Possible options may include:

Plastic composite frame
Galvanized steel frame
Aluminum frame
Custom rigid frame
Header frame
Box-style configuration

Frame selection should consider:

Filter weight
Installation method
Housing design
Mechanical strength
Corrosion exposure
Temperature
Gasket requirements
Replacement handling

Gasket and Sealing Options

Proper sealing is important for HEPA filter performance.

Clean-Link can support gasket options such as:

Upstream gasket
Downstream gasket
Full-face gasket
Custom gasket location
Foam gasket
EPDM gasket where applicable

The gasket should match the housing compression surface and installation direction.

A high-efficiency filter can still lose system performance if air bypass occurs around the frame.

Airflow and Pressure Drop

V-bank filters are often selected specifically because the system needs to handle higher airflow in a limited filter area.

Important parameters include:

Factor	Why It Matters
Rated airflow	Defines air volume per filter
Face velocity	Influences resistance and loading
Initial pressure drop	Shows resistance when new
Final pressure drop	Supports replacement planning
Media area	Helps determine airflow handling
Number of V packs	Affects total filter area and structure
Filter depth	Affects installation compatibility
Fan capability	Determines whether the system can handle resistance
Prefiltration	Helps protect the HEPA stage
Dust load	Affects filter life and pressure rise

For high-airflow projects, Clean-Link can review the filter specification together with system air volume and available installation space.

V-Bank HEPA Filters for Data Centers

Data centers often require high airflow to support cooling systems and protect sensitive equipment from airborne contamination.

V-bank filters may be suitable where:

Air volumes are high
Filter space is limited
Low system resistance is important
Fine particle control is required
Long replacement intervals are preferred

The actual filter class and system configuration should be selected according to the HVAC design, outdoor air quality, recirculation strategy, and equipment protection goals.

Industrial V-Bank HEPA Filter Applications

V-bank HEPA filters can also be used in industrial systems that require high-efficiency filtration with higher airflow capacity.

Typical applications include:

Manufacturing plants
Pharmaceutical facilities
Biotechnology facilities
Laboratories
Electronics manufacturing
Industrial HVAC
Process ventilation
Commercial buildings
Data centers
OEM equipment
High-airflow air handling units

For industrial systems, particle load and upstream filtration should also be considered.

Prefiltration Before V-Bank HEPA Filters

HEPA filters should generally not be used as the only filtration stage in dusty environments.

Upstream filtration can help reduce coarse and medium particle load before air reaches the V-bank HEPA filter.

A staged arrangement may include:

Prefilter
Medium-efficiency panel or pocket filter
V-bank HEPA filter

This can help:

Reduce HEPA loading
Slow pressure drop increase
Support longer service life
Protect the high-efficiency stage
Improve maintenance planning

Standard and Custom V-Bank HEPA Filter Sizes

Clean-Link can support standard and custom V-bank HEPA filter dimensions.

Custom requirements may include:

Length
Width
Depth
Number of V packs
H13 / H14 requirement
Frame material
Header structure
Gasket location
Rated airflow
Pressure drop target
OEM packaging
Labeling
Drawing-based production

For replacement projects, actual dimensions should be confirmed whenever possible.

Replacement V-Bank HEPA Filters

Replacing an existing V-bank HEPA filter requires more than matching the external dimensions.

Buyers should confirm:

Requirement	What to Check
Dimensions	Actual length × width × depth
Efficiency	H13, H14 or current requirement
Airflow	Rated airflow per filter
Pressure drop	Existing data if available
Frame	Material and structure
Number of V packs	Helps match filter construction
Gasket	Position and material
Header	Box or header configuration
Application	HVAC, data center, industrial, laboratory
Quantity	Current and repeat demand
