FILTER PERFORMANCE
The airflow capacity data published in the “Blower Perfor- mance” table listed above represents blower performance WITHOUT filters. To determine the approximate blower per- formance of the system, apply the filter drop value for the fil- ter being used or select an appropriate value from the “Filter Performance” table shown.
NOTE: The filter pressure drop values in the “Filter Perfor- mance” table shown are typical values for the type of filter listed and should only be used as a guideline. Actual pres- sure drop ratings for each filter type vary between filter manu- facturer.

APPLYING FILTER PRESSURE DROP TO DETERMINE SYSTEM AIRFLOW
To determine the approximate airflow of the unit with a filter in place, follow the steps below:
1.Select the filter type.
2.Determine the External System Static Pressure (ESP) without the filter.
UNIT CLEARANCES TO COMBUSTIBLES
3.Select a filter pressure drop from the table based upon the number of return air openings or return air opening size and add to the ESP from Step 2 to determine the total system static.
If total system static matches a ESP value in the airflow table (i.e. 0.20, 0.60, etc,) the system airflow corresponds to the intersection of the ESP column and Model/Blower Speed row.
