Filter Cloth Air Permeability Units and Conversion Guide

Air permeability of filter cloth refers to the volume of gas that can pass through a unit area of fabric under specific temperature and pressure conditions within a given time. It is one of the key performance parameters of filter cloth, directly affecting filtration efficiency, cake formation rate, and equipment stability.

In addition to air permeability, other important parameters include chemical resistance (acid and alkali resistance), temperature resistance, tensile strength, thickness, weight per unit area, and fiber density.

Common Air Permeability Units

Different regions and industries use different measurement standards:

· China: L/m²/s, commonly tested at 200 Pa (L/m²/s @ 200 Pa)

· Europe: L/dm²/min, tested at 200 Pa with a test area of 20 cm²

· USA: CFM (cubic feet per minute), tested at 125 Pa with a test area of 38 cm²

Due to differences in testing standards, unit conversion is necessary when comparing data across regions.


Common Conversion Relationships

· 1 mm/s = 0.197 cfm

· 1 L/dm²/min = 1.67 mm/s

· 1 cm³/cm²/s = 10 mm/s

· 1 L/m²/s = 1.00 mm/s = 0.197 cfm

· 1 m³/m²/min = 16.7 mm/s

· 1 m³/m²/h=0.278mm/s

Understanding these conversions helps improve technical communication and supports accurate filter cloth selection.
