Designed to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient and sustainable HVAC solutions, the Opakfil ES+ offers enhanced performance, extended operational life, and significant environmental benefits.

Building on the success of the original Opakfil ES, the Opakfil ES+ features an increased filter depth, resulting in a larger amount of filtration media. This enhancement leads to a higher dust holding capacity, allowing the filter to last up to 50% longer in HVAC systems. The extended lifespan not only reduces maintenance frequency but also minimizes waste and labor costs, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership.

The filter achieves a 62% reduction in energy consumption compared to the industry average and a 24% reduction compared to other A/A+ rated compact filters. This remarkable performance is attributed to its low pressure drop and aerodynamic radial design, which optimise airflow and reduce energy usage.

The Opakfil ES+ is available in ePM1 and ePM2.5 efficiencies, in accordance with ISO 16890 standards, ensuring high indoor air quality across various applications. Its moulded frame, constructed from recycled plastic, underscores Camfil's commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices.

"The Opakfil ES+ represents a significant advancement in the performance of compact HVAC filters," said Arcangel Minguez, EMEA Product Manager at Camfil. "By enhancing the filter's depth and media capacity, we've created a product that not only delivers superior performance but also aligns with our customers' sustainability goals by reducing energy consumption and waste."
