Dynamic Air High Efficiency Air Filtration

Designed to meet the rigorous requirements of green buildings, data centers, hospitals, pharmaceutical and clean manufacturing, the Dynamic V8 Air Filtration System couples maximum effectiveness with unparalleled energy and operational savings.

The Dynamic V8, offering MERV 15 performance, utilizes both the principles of existing Dynamic products as well as several important technological advances to create a system that is a quantum leap over the current state of the art. It offers property owners dramatic savings when using the Dynamic V8 in place of 4″ MERV 13 filters in either flat or angled filter racks. On average, it takes at least 32 changes of MERV 13 filters before the first change is needed for the Dynamic V8 – without pre-filters.

Maximum Energy Savings

Superior loading also flattens the drop curve to save over 1″ of static pressure. This means big energy savings and the potential for smaller fan selection. Energy costs are a major concern for facility managers and are, at current rates, typically 80-85% of the cost of filtration, far outweighing the initial filter cost. A MERV 14 cartridge filter array with pre-filters will consume three times more energy than a Dynamic V8.

Green Design and LEED

The Dynamic V8 is completely consistent with the goals of LEED and Green Design. It does more with less: better IAQ with less energy, less time, and less waste. It is the choice for LEED projects and is installed throughout the LEED Platinum renovation of ASHRAE Headquarters and in numerous projects around the world. Whether you are seeking LEED certification or simply designing with Green principles in mind, the Dynamic V8 provides the highest level of performance with the minimum environmental footprint.

Activated Carbon System

State-of-the-art carbon technology gives Dynamic Activated Carbon panels many advantages over pellet-based systems. Dynamic Activated Carbon systems remove target contaminants without the energy cost penalty, supplying purified air more efficiently.

Dynamic Activated Carbon systems can be used in:

• Specialty Applications: such as museums, archives, hospitals, labs, and clean manufacturing.
• Problem Applications: to address issues such as entrainment of kitchen fumes or engine exhaust fumes.
• General Applications: cleaning the air of gas phase contaminants in commercial buildings or for reduced outdoor air applications.
• Industrial Applications: including pulp and paper, petrochemical plants and refineries, as well as municipal and private waste water treatment plants.

Outstanding Performance

Carbon effectiveness and longevity are functions of weight and contact time. More weight means more capacity for odor removal and a longer service life. One gram of activated carbon has 10,000 square feet of internal surface area. One pound of activated carbon has a surface area equal to about 125 acres.

The media life for a Dynamic Activated Carbon Matrix is predictable, based on the contaminants of concern and their concentration levels. In addition, the media can be engineered on a job-by-job basis to meet specific performance requirements such as static pressure drop, maximum face velocity, and residence time. Common target contaminants include hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, and other acid gases and odors.

Dynamic Activated Carbon delivers an 80–90% upstream/downstream removal.

Designed for permanent mounting in commercial air handling systems, Dynamic 1″ and 2″ V-Banks offer a high-efficiency and cost-effective alternative to bulky bag and cartridge filters. Dynamic V-Banks offer improved filtration, odor reduction, lower energy costs and less maintenance, and can often be used with or without pre-filters.

New Construction

Lower static pressure corresponds directly to lower brake horsepower, which drives fan energy. With Dynamic Air Cleaners, and using the prescriptive option under section 6.5.3 of ASHRAE 90.1, engineers can reduce energy and provide every customer with a payback worth investing in.

Retrofits

A building’s total operating costs can be reduced by 15% or more when conventional filters are replaced with Dynamic Air Cleaners. HVAC costs made up of utilities, maintenance, labor, purchasing, receiving, storage, disposal and replacement typically account for 75% of a building’s operating costs.  Dynamic Air Cleaners can make a significant impact.

2″ Tandem Polarized Media Electronic Air Cleaners

For commercial installations where it’s desirable to run air cleaners in series, Dynamic 2″ Tandem Air Cleaners can be wired to a single power supply or control panel (control panels are available as optional accessories). 2″ Dynamic Air Cleaners slide directly into 2″ filter tracks in most packaged rooftops and air handlers.

2″ Polarized Media Electronic Air Cleaners

Designed to fit most commercial applications, 2″ Dynamic Air Cleaners are available in 2” individual panels that wire to a single power supply or a control panel (control panels are available as optional accessories). The air cleaners slide directly into 2″ filter tracks in most self-contained package rooftop units or configured into “Super V” V-Bank Systems.

Each 2″ Dynamic Air Cleaner uses two one-piece replacement media pads with a patented activated-charcoal carbon center screens for maximum effectiveness and odor control.

Additionally Dynamic Air Cleaners can be used to clean outdoor ventilation air coming into conditioned spaces such as:

• Schools for school bus exhaust fumes
• Hospitals for heliport and ambulance parking fumes
• Airports and air traffic control facilities for jet engine exhaust fumes
• Rail and bus stations for diesel engine exhaust fumes
• Metropolitan offices for vehicle exhaust fumes

Effective against resistant pathogens such as Anthrax and viruses

There is no question that UVC (Ultraviolet light of the 250-260mm wavelength) is a powerful germicide. Given sufficient intensity, UVC will inactivate pathogens on a surface. But since the intensity depends on contact time and proximity to the light, the question has been how to effectively apply UVC to pathogens moving at 500 fpm through the ducts in an HVAC system. UVC lamps by themselves cannot guarantee sufficient intensity to kill organisms as they move by in the airstream. And while high-efficiency passive filters may capture pathogens, UVC cannot penetrate the dense media, allowing them to remain active.

For those applications where biological inactivation is important, high-output UVC and a polarized glass media are combined to provide a catch, hold, kill solution. The key for UVC to be effective is contact time and proximity. The Dynamic system captures the biologicals in the airstream on essentially a translucent surface. A scanning parabolic reflector focuses a sterilizing beam of UVC that sweeps the media again and again, to provide the necessary contact time. A cowling keeps the lamp clean and the UVC contained. This is a far more efficient system with less potential for collateral exposure than one that bathes an entire coil or duct section with UVC.

Packaged Air Purification

The RS-2 air purification system includes two 1″ Dynamic Air Cleaners in a V-Bank configuration to increase filter face area for more effective air cleaning at lower air velocity. Available cased in 1400 and 2400 cfm models.

The RS-3 also includes two 1″ Dynamic Air Cleaners in a cased V-Bank configuration with the addition of a Dynamic Sterile Sweep UVC system to provide concentrated UVC light across the surface of the air cleaners.

Finally, the RS-4 Air Purification System includes a 1″ Dynamic Air Cleaner, a high-intensity UVC lamp, and an activated carbon matrix module to collect odors and gas phase contaminants. This offers the most effective means of controlling all three elements of indoor air pollution: particulates, biological microbes, and gas-phase odors/VOCs. The RS-4 is available in a 1400 cfm model.
