In Canada: Darling Brothers, Ltd., Montreal, Quebec Mt PRODUCTS: The American Air Filter Company, Inc. manu factures a complete line of Air Filtering Equipment including Electronic Air Filters, Automatic SelfCleaning Filters, Viscous Unit Filters, and Dry Process Filters to be used for the removal of dust, soot, smoke, dirt, bacteria and other foreign matter from the air. Because air filtration has proved to be the economical, practical and efficient method of cleaning the air, the modern air filter is now considered an absolute neces sity in building ventilation or air con ditioning, in the maintenance of health and persona! efficiency, protection of interiors and furnishings and valuable merchandise and equipment. Shown here are but a few American Air Filter products in most general use. The American Air Filter Company is recognized as an authority on dust problems and their satisfactory solution. Products offered embody the knowledge accumulated from twenty- five years of intensive research devoted exclusively to the study of dust problems and the development of air clean ing apparatus; the experience gained from designing, building and applying thous ands of air filters; are backed by ample technical and financial resources; and may be relied upon as the most modern equip ment in their field of service. THREE TYPES OF ELECTRONIC AIR FILTERS For more than ten years, research and experimentation with electronic air filtra tion have been in progress by AAF engi neers. Today's complete line includes the self cleaning Electro-Matic introduced in 1939, the washable Electro-Cell with re movable collector plates, and the ElectroAirmat with the replacable Airmat paper medium. Here for the first time is high efficiency air cleaning in three types of electronic filters to meet any requirements for super clean air. Electro-Matte Self-Cleaning Elec tronic Filter--The Electro-Matic filter is a self cleaning electric precipitator combining the most advanced principles of electronic air cleaning with notable improvements in construction details and method of operation. The self-cleaning feature is an exclusive advantage of the Electro-Matic filter. It eliminates the necessity of shutting down the filter for manual cleaning, minimizes the need for personal atten tion and permits continuous high-efficiency operation. It also allows the ElectroMatic filter to be built in standardized self-contained sections; easy to install and with all exposed parts of the filter casing electrically grounded for the protection of operating personnel.

A choice of wash ing collector plate assemblies while in place, or removing assemblies for individual cleaning. Installation is sim plified because filter is built in vertical sections rather than assembled of small units. Parts to be lifted and aligned are light in weight and elec trical connections simplified. Write for Bulletin No. 252. Eiectro-Airmat Elec-' tronic Filter--The applica tion of an electrostatic charge to a dielectric filtering ma terial is an exclusive AAF research development which began early in 1934. Airmat paper is composed of a num ber of plys of porous tissue like cellulose sheets. When electrically charged the plys tend- to separate and each individual fibre becomes a collecting electrode which at tracts and holds the dust and smoke particles. Ease and convenience of maintenance is a desired advantage of the. Eiectro-Airmat. Requires neither water nor sewer con nections for cleaning, nor spraying with oil to maintain its efficiency. When Airmat paper has accumulated its Electro-A IRMA T Filler Electro-CELL Filler American Multi-Duty Self-Cleaning Filler dust load it is removed and replaced with clean material by means of a ` mechanical loader. In case of power fail ure, filter media provides best mechanical air filtration known. Send for Bulletin No. 253.
