6 Viledon High-efficiency filtration for industry Industrial air filtration, human protection, system solutions & services and liquid filtration Industrial filtration is very complex and highly challenging. It takes a successful combination of know-how, innovative strength and technical and scientific resources to create future-proof system solutions. And the Viledon brand does just that. The spectrum, performance and quality of the Viledon filter program are tailored to the complex requirements of very diverse applications ranging from top-quality, application-tailored media to the sophisticated final product. We have divided the wide-ranging spectrum of Viledon products and services into four core areas: industrial air filtration, human protection, system solutions & services and liquid filtration.» Industrial air filtration Viledon stands for clean air with holistically conceived, futureoriented complete system solutions, general HVAC jobs, ventilation of machines and processes and cleanroom technology. Contamination control Contamination control is designed to ensure optimum HVAC solutions for man, machine and processes. Typical applications in intake, exhaust and recirculating air filtration for HVAC equipment include offices, computer rooms and switchboards. In this field, Viledon pocket filters and Viledon NanoPleat cassette filters produce excellent performance. A modern alternative to these classic particle filters are combination filters like the Viledon DuoPleat apart from particle filtration, these filters also remove unpleasant odors. The highest standards of air purity and a fully germ-free environment are required in cleanrooms. Optimum air filtration ensures the reliable collection of germs and particles particularly in the pharmaceutical industry when manufacturing medicines or in the chemical industry for producing active substances. Furthermore, the contamination of neighboring zones through air-borne particles or germs must be prevented. Viledon HEPA / ULPA filters are invaluable in this context. NanoPleat cassette filters DuoPleat cassette filters Surface treatment Viledon filter products are state of the art for surface treatment technology. Installed in ceiling filters or for intake, exhaust or recirculating air filtration in paint shops and paint spray booths, these filters guarantee practically 100 % arrestance of particles that could cause damage to the painted surface. Viledon Compact pocket filters effectively collect the main dust content at the prefilter stage. Viledon MaxiPleat cassette filters ensure effective paint mist arrestance, particularly in modern recirculating air plants at paint shops. Adhesive-coated Viledon ceiling filter mats function as a safety filter to prevent potentially damaging dust HEPA / ULPA filters Compact pocket filters and fiber particles from penetrating into the paint spray zone, thereby ensuring a mirror-smooth finish. Viledon HT high-temperature filters are invaluable for efficient and reliable filtration in paint drying booths.

Turbomachinery Particle soiling in the intake air is an important factor affecting the operation and efficiency of gas turbines and turbocompressors.

Thanks to our comprehensive know-how, we can develop customized dust removal concepts for environmental protection, workplace safety, system protection or product recovery.

7 Turbomachinery Particle soiling in the intake air is an important factor affecting the operation and efficiency of gas turbines and turbocompressors. Viledon air filters prevent any damage to the blading or any dust encrustations and fouling on the blades themselves. Viledon offers various solutions to suit different applications: MaxiPleat filters and Compact pocket filters as well as depth-loading or surface-loading filter cartridges are popular choices for on- and offshore applications. Emission control The right choice of filter or filter combination is crucially important for the effectiveness of any dust removal system. Thanks to our comprehensive know-how, we can develop customized dust removal concepts for environmental protection, workplace safety, system protection or product recovery. Based on an analysis of existing dust removal problems and processes, we custom design Viledon filter media plus products which can be varied in terms of their structural shape, overall height, nominal diameter and pleat geometry. So there is plenty of scope for solving almost every collection problem.» Human protection MaxiPleat cassette filters Depth-loading filter cartridges Filter media for respiratory masks Thanks to high technical standards and a production process protected by world-wide patents, our classified filter media for respiratory masks ensure the highest possible reliability combined with easy processing. Secondary filters for vacuum cleaners Our high-quality motor protection and exhaust filters are used as secondary filters downstream from the dust bag and prolong the service life of a vacuum cleaner. Filters for room air cleaners We develop and produce coarse filters, fine dust filters, high-grade HEPA filter cassettes and activated carbon filters for room air cleaners. Custom filtration solutions With our profound knowledge of materials and processes and the expertise of our applications engineers, and by working in close cooperation with our customers, we can tailor filtration solutions to customers' specific requirements.

Viledon eee.sy Today s economic and environmental mega-trends call for massive improvements in the efficient use of existing energy sources. Viledon eee.sy stands for energy-efficiency-enhancement system. This is a turnkey system for enhancing the energy efficiency of intake air systems for turbines and compressors. Freudenberg Filtration Technologies provides its customers with a system suited to modern industrial-scale applications. Viledon academy The Viledon academy gives our customers access to the latest developments in the world of filtration and to state-of-the-art knowledge. Training courses and technical tours provide practical experience and theoretical background know-how on developing, testing and manufacturing filtration solutions and on all aspects of filtration, ventilation, hygiene technology and maintenance. Filter testing Our filters are put through their paces in our Filter Testing Department using state-of-the-art test rig technologies. Besides the usual tests in accordance with national and international standards, each filter is also subjected to our own specific tests conducted under much more rigorous conditions. These special tests are developed by our test engineers to check compliance with the specific requirements of very diverse applications. They include exposing the filters to atmospheric dusts, soot and synthetic fine dusts under intensified flow and moisture conditions or higher dust concentrations, tests conducted under extreme climate conditions and many, many more. To supplement these laboratory tests, the filters are also tested under real conditions, and only then is the development of a new filter regarded as concluded. This performance data provides valuable knowledge that also forms the basis of our continuous product development and optimum customer service.

Coolant and lubricant filtration: cooltexx Freudenberg offers Viledon cooltexx nonwovens for the filtration of coolants and lubricants in a wide range of application-specific types for all vacuum, pressure and gravity belt filter systems, in all the typical roll widths and lengths. In terms of filter fineness, fiber type and structure, Viledon filter media are matched to the machining processes involved, the materials concerned and the various process fluids including emulsions and oils, as well as washing, phosphating and coagulation baths. Oil and fuel filtration: pluratexx The innovative Viledon pluratexx oil filter media represent a quantum leap in engine oil filtration for modern, high-performance engines. In terms of service life and efficiency, these fully synthetic materials clearly outperform the cellulose papers traditionally used in oil and fuel filters. Smaller filters can be used at the same time as extending service intervals. Pluratexx, which is made from 100 % thermally bonded polyester fibers, offers greater resistance to aggressive high-performance motor oils than conventional filter materials. Pool and spa filtration: hydrotexx Especially for the North American market, we offer Viledon hydrotexx filter media for pools and spas. Thanks to its innovative two-component fiber structure, hydrotexx ensures outstanding filtration performance. While the pure polyester core provides stability and durability, the outer layer consists of a special polyester polymer cross-linked to produce a firm fabric. Viledon hydrotexx is resistant to all the detergents used at pools and spas.
