PrecisionCell II M and MSH
Extended Surface Mini Pleat Filters
in "C" Channel Metal Frame
Extended Surface Mini Pleat Filters
in Metal Frame with Single 13/16" Header
Bulletin PB1006-1106
PrecisionCell II 4 inch deep in M and MSH designs
are designed to be operated at 500 FPM. Both M
and MSH Model PrecisionCell II's are offered in all
standard sizes. Special sizes are not available.
All PrecisionCell II models utilize state of the art
minipleat technology which uses media separators
made from thermoplastic glue beads to allow preci-
sion spacing between the moisture-resistant
microfine fiberglass media. The adjacent polymer
bead separators cure into durable, hard strips sep-
arating the media folds thereby creating a rigid
pack assembly which maintains excellent pleat
spacing continuity over the life of the filter.
Both PrecisionCell II metal-framed models are
bonded and sealed into a corrosion-resistant, metal
frame with an expanded metal face grille on the
downstream side to prevent media pack oscillation
or blowout. Both metal framed models are the ideal
choice where HVAC Systems pull in 100% humid
outside air such as Hospitals.
General:
PrecisionCell II extended surface minipleat filters
now offer the end user high efficiency filtration per-
formance in minimal media pack depths of 4 inch-
es deep in 60-65% (MERV 11), 80-85% (MERV
13), and 90-95% (MERV 14-15), and are available
in a corrosion resistant metal frame (M) for box
style or optional metal frame with a single 13/16"
header (MSH).
Due to the rigid minipleat technology in combina-
tion with the metal frame design, PrecisionCell II's
are the ideal choice for use in existing and new
installations where space is limited or where
upgrading filter efficiency levels are required in
existing units. Variable air volume systems, turbu-
lent airflow, or high humidity applications where
conventional filters fail, are good choices for
upgrading to PrecisionCell II's in metal frame con-
figurations.
Important Features
• High Efficiency Filtration in minimal, space-saving
design.
• This unique shallow-depth pack compacts up to 2
times the media area found in conventional 12
inch deep filters.
• 3-to-1 ratio in shipping, storage, handling and dis-
posal costs over conventional 12" deep cells
• Excellent choice for upgrading older systems at a
fraction of the cost.

Notes
1. PD represents clean pressure drop in inches w.g. Recommended final pressure drop for all models
is 1.5 inch w.g.
2. Actual filter face size of 24” x 24” and 24” x 12” is 5/8” undercut on height and width. All other sizes
are 1/2” undercut on height and width. Actual filter depth is 3-3/4”
3. Efficiency is average and is based on ASHRAE Standard 52.1 and 52.2 test methods.
4. Performance tolerances conform to Section 7.4 of ARI Standard 850.
5. Perfmormance values shown in this publication may be averages or estimates intended to generally represent product
styles. Always contact factory for latest actual test data on specific Flanders Precisionaire models.
Prefilters
VAV Systems
Prefilters are always a wise choice for the protec-
tion of minipleat filters no matter what the efficiency
or brand. The closely-spaced pleats are subject to
face-loading (bridging) by lint and coarse particles,
thus reducing their usual long life. A minimum 25-
30% ASHRAE efficiency pleated panel filter such
as the Flanders Precisionaire Prepleat 40 is recom-
mended.
Filter banks should be sized so that the face veloc-
ity at maximum design conditions is 625 fpm or
less. PrecisionCell II filters may be applied at any
capacity between 0 and 625 fpm. Operating a filter
bank at reduced flow will greatly increase expected
filter life.
Save Storage Space and Shipping Costs
Using the 24” x 24” size as an example, a carton of
four PrecisionCell II 4” filters has a volume of 5.3
cubic feet and a weight of 26 lbs. Compare this to
four 12” deep rigid separator-type filters packed in
four cartons with a total volume of 16 cubic feet and
total weight of 80 lbs.
Save In-Line Space
Compare the airway lengths of 22” PrecisionPak
bag filters and 12” Rigid-Air filter to a 4”
PrecisionCell filter when they are installed with 2”
prefilters.

Application Guidelines
PrecisionCell II filters should be selected for
new installations with 24” H x 24” W and 24”
H x 12” W face sizes. These are the most
widely used and stocked sizes. This allows
for 12” increments in height and width of the
filter bank and insures that replacement car-
tridges will be readily available.
PrecisionCell II filters should be installed with
the pleats vertical wherever possible. It is
permissible to install 24” H x 12” W face size
filters with pleats horizontal if necessary to
meet the size requirements of the filter bank.

PrecisionCell II filters are ideal as prefilters
for Alpha Cell HEPA filters. Their light weight
and 4” depth make them an excellent choice
24 - (23-3/8”) tall
for installation in the optional Prefilter Frame Assembly for the Alpha Cell HEPA Filter Holding Frame or in
Surelock Side Access HEPA Housings.
Specify the Surelock housing with an optional 4” wide prefilter track for the PrecisionCell II filters, in lieu of
the 2” wide prefilter track for pleated panel filters. We recommend the selection of 80-85% PrecisionCell II
filters as HEPA prefilters.
