Ansaugfiltersysteme von Rotationsmaschinen - Prüfverfahren - Teil 1: Statische Filterelemente (ISO/DIS 29461-1:2020)

ISO 29461 legt Prüfverfahren für die Ermittlung der Leistung von Partikelluftfiltern für den Einsatz in Ansaugfiltersystemen für Rotationsmaschinen, z. B. stationäre Gasturbinen, Kompressoren und andere stationäre Verbrennungskraftmaschinen, fest. Dies gilt für Luftfilter mit einem Wirkungsgrad von 85 % oder mehr für die MPPS (EPA- und HEPA-Filter), die nach ISO 29463 Teil 1 bis 5 geprüft werden, und Filter mit einem geringeren Wirkungsgrad, deren Prüfung nach ISO 16890 Teil 1 bis 4 erfolgt. Die in der Normenreihe ISO 16890 und der Normenreihe ISO 29463 beschriebenen Verfahren werden durch diesen Teil von ISO 29461 angewendet und auf Luftfilter erweitert, die mit Durchflussraten im Bereich von 0,24 m3/s (850 m3/h, 500 ft3/min) bis 2,36 m3/s (8 500 m3/h, 5 000 ft3/min) betrieben werden.
Dieser Teil von ISO 29461 bezieht sich auf statische (Barriere-) Filtersysteme, kann aber auch unter geeigneten Umständen auf andere Filtertypen und Systeme angewendet werden, z. B. um den Ausgangswirkungsgrad von reinigbaren und Oberflächenfiltern zu bewerten.
Die nach diesem Teil der ISO 29461 Norm für die Leistung ermittelten Ergebnisse können nicht unmittelbar zur quantitativen Vorhersage der Leistung bezogen auf Wirkungsgrad und Lebensdauer für den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall des Filters verwendet werden. Andere Faktoren, die sich auf die Leistung auswirken und berücksichtigt werden müssen, werden in den Anhängen beschrieben.

Introduction

In rotating machinery applications, the filtering systems, typically a set of filter elements arranged in

a suitable manner, are an important part of the whole turbine/compressor system. The development

of turbine machinery used for energy production or others has led to more sophisticated equipment

and therefore the importance of good protection of these systems has become more important in the

recent years. It is known that particulate contamination can deteriorate a turbine power system quite

substantially if not taken care of.

This event is often described as “erosion”, “fouling” and “hot corrosion” where salt and other corrosive

particles are known as potential problems. Other particulate matters may also cause significant

reduction of efficiency of the systems. It is important to understand that air filter devices in such systems

are located in various environmental conditions. The range of climate and particulate contamination is

very wide, ranging from deserts to humid rain forests to arctic environments. The requirements on

these filter systems are obviously different depending on where they will be operating.

ISO 29461 has based the performance of the air intake filter systems not only upon heavy dust

collection but also particulate efficiency in a size range that is considered to be the problematic area for

these applications. Both ultra-fine and fine particles, as well as larger particles, should be considered

when evaluating turbine fouling. In typical outdoor air, ultra-fine and fine particles in the size range

from 0,01 μm to 1 μm contribute to > 99 % of the number concentration and to > 90 % of the surface

contamination. The majority of the mass normally comes from larger particles (>1,0 μm).

Turbo-machinery filters comprise a wide range of products from filters for very coarse particles to

filters for very fine, sub-micron particles. The range of products varies from depth to surface loading

systems, which can be regenerated e.g. by pulse cleaning. The filters and the systems have to withstand

a wide temperature and humidity range, very low to very high dust concentration and mechanical

stress. The shape of products existing today can be of many different types and have different functions

such as droplet separators, coalescing products, filter pads, metal filters, inertial filters, filter cells,

bag filters, panel-type, cleanable and depth loading filter cartridges and pleated media surface filter

elements.

ISO 29461 series of standards will provide a way to compare these products in a similar way and

define what criteria are important for air filter intake systems for rotary machinery performance

protection. The performance of products in this broad range must be compared in a good manner.

Comparing different filters and filter types must be done with respect to the operating conditions they

finally will be used in. For instance, if a filter or a filter system is meant to operate in an extreme, very

dusty environment, the real particulate efficiency of such a filter cannot be predicted because the dust

loading of the filter plays an important role. A further part of ISO 29461 will address the performance

of cleanable and surface loading filters. Filters in turbo-machinery applications can also face very harsh

operating conditions such as high air flow rates or water and salt ingress. Further parts of ISO 29461

will address the performance of filters under such harsh conditions.

DRAFT INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO/DIS 29461-1:2020(E)
Air intake filter systems for rotary machinery — Test
methods —
Part 1:
Static filter elements
1 Scope

ISO 29461 specifies methods and procedures for determining the performance of particulate air filters

used in air intake filter systems for rotary machinery such as stationary gas turbines, compressors and

other stationary internal combustion engines. It applies to air filters with an efficiency of 85 % or more

for the MPPS (EPA and HEPA filters) which are tested according to ISO 29463 part 1 to 5 and filters with

a lower efficiency which are tested according to ISO 16890 part 1 to 4. The procedures described in

both, the ISO 16890 series and the ISO 29463 series, are applied and extended by this part of ISO 29461

3 3 3

to air filters which operate at flow rates within the range 0,24 m /s (850 m /h, 500 ft /min) up to

3 3 3
2,36 m /s (8500 m /h, 5000 ft /min).

This part of ISO 29461 refers to static (barrier) filter systems but can also be applied to other filter

types and systems in appropriate circumstances, for example to evaluate the initial efficiency of

cleanable and surface loading filters.

The performance results obtained in accordance with this part of ISO 29461 cannot be quantitatively

applied (by themselves) to predict performance in service with regard to efficiency and lifetime. Other

factors influencing performance to be taken into account are described in the annexes.

5 General requirements

Static filter systems normally use multiple stages of coarse, fine and optional also EPA or HEPA filter

elements to protect the machinery. The scope of this part of ISO 29461 includes methods for performance

testing of individual filter elements. It does not include methods for the direct measurement of

the performance of entire systems as installed in service except in cases where they can meet the

qualification criteria for the test assembly.
6 Testing and classification of filter efficiencies

Filters with an efficiency of 85 % or more for the MPPS (EPA and HEPA filters) are tested according to

ISO 29463 part 1 to 5, while filters with a lower efficiency are tested according to ISO 16890 part 1 to 4.

Filters are classified in Groups and Classes based on their efficiency as defined in Table 1.

Note: For the classification of ISO ePM and ISO ePM filters only the ePM values are used.

1 2,5 x, min

HEPA filters (class T13) have to be individually tested and their efficiency determined at MPPS according

to 29463-5. Filters shall be individually leak tested according to ISO 29463-4 where, in addition to the

reference leak scan method, four alternate methods for leak testing are allowed. For HEPA filters with

geometries which do not allow a scan testing, like e.g. cartridges or V-bank filters, the oil thread test

method or one of the other suitable (non-scanning) methods described in ISO 29463-4 can be applied.

Alternate norms used for leak testing should be clearly identified on the filter and certifications.

In order to extent the volume flow rate and the range of filter geometries (e.g. cylindrical filters)

deviations and extensions to the test rig defined by ISO 16890-2 and ISO 29463-5, respectively, are

described below.
