Advantages:
Nordic’s customer is a reseller, and their customer was buying filters directly from a manufacturer who did not properly analyze the dust and operating conditions; they just sold them the cheapest filter.
Working with our resale partner, we evaluated the operating conditions and determined that a filter with stronger spun bond media would hold better in this application.
They ordered and since then there have not been any problems and the filters are holding up just fine.
