Notes:
1. Height and Width Code: The first numeral represents the number of 24 in. x 24 in. filters high or wide.
If 24 in. x 12 in. filters are also used in the height or width, the second numeral is “5”.
2. Dimensions are based on using nominal size 24 in. x 24 in. and 24 in. x 12 in. filters. Select filters from capacity chart fo
2 in. disposable filters; 2 in. or 4 in. PrePleat filters; 6 in. RAH Rigid- Air; or 4 in. PrecisionCell mini pleat filters.
3. For capacities other than those shown, ratio the face velocities.
4. Maximum recommended velocities:
2 in. disposable filters: 300 fpm 2 in. pleated filters: 500 fpm
4 in. pleated filters: 625 fpm 4 in. PrecisionCell filters: 625 fpm
6 in. Rigid-Air and PrecisionCell filters: See applicable capacity chart.

Model Number Development

Surepleat housing for both 2 in. prefilters and 4 in.
SP 2/4 -- 20H 35W X
PrecisionCell final filters, 2 filters high and 3-1/2 filters wide.
The letter X indicates that special features are required.

Type of housing, which in this case is Surepleat (SP)

Type of filter track: 1 for 1” track (6” RAH or PrecisionCell single
header filters 2 (for 2” track for 2” filters) or 4 (for 4” track for 4”
filters or 2/4 (combination 2”track for prefilters and 4” track for
Precisioncell final filters
Height and Width code: The first numeral of each section represents the
number of 24”x24” filters high or wide. If a 24”x12” filter is used to com-
plete the height or width, the second numeral of section will be “5”.
For special features or sizes, end with the suffix “X” and describe them.

(1) Filters/Weight: Top letter/number combination indicates the number of and nominal face size of filters required to fill the
unit. “A” stands for nominal 24” x 24” filter. “C stands for nominal 24” x 12” filter. Bottom number indicates the approximate
weight of the housing EMPTY. Add approximately 2 pounds per 2 inch depth filter; 5 pounds per 4” depth filter; and 12
pounds per 6” depth filter to determine approximate weight when loaded with filters.
• Standard housing depth is 12”
