ULPA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ULPA is an acronym for "ultra low penetration air".

An ULPA filter (theoretically) can remove from the air at least 99.999% of dust, pollen, mold, bacteria and any airborne particles with a size of 120 nanometres or larger. A number of Recommended Practices have been written on testing these filters including IEST-RP-CC001: HEPA and ULPA Filters, IEST-RP-CC007: Testing ULPA Filters, IEST-RP-CC022: Testing HEPA and ULPA Filter Media, and IEST-RP-CC034: HEPA and ULPA Filter Leak Tests.[1]
