WALTON AIR FILTERS High Dust Removal Efficiency--Low Air Resistance--Long Life
Walton air filters operate on the im pingement principle, using an entirely new filter medium--expanded fibre. Large, uniformly distributed area holds large quantities of dust yet cleans effectively, with low air restriction. Air flowing through the filter impinges against more than 30,000 tiny baffles per sq ft, de positing dust, and changing direction 21 times.
To prevent clogging and insure uniform deposit of dust, the filter is made in three sections--at the inlet, coarse open mesh; middle and outlet sections progressively finer mesh; in each section a sticky com pound is applied in progressive amount. Progressive mesh and progressive sticki ness reduce clogging and insure high holding capacity. Exposed surfaces are free from excess stickiness--clean to handle.
The sticky compound will not drip or volatilize at high temperatures, nor gum at low temperatures, and is odorless. ,
Walton air filters have been used success fully on warm air furnaces, ventilating and air conditioning systems, automobile air conditioning, industrial . dust collectors and wherever a filter is required for re moving dust and pollen from the air.
Diagrammatic cross section of Walton filter. Three sections with progressively finer mesh and Progressive stickiness. Large dust particles ore trapped' by the coarse section, finer particles by the finer mesh--deposited uniformly throughout
the filter.
HIGH DUST REMOVAL EFFICIENCY
The Walton filter maintains high clean ing efficiency for all common dust sizes. Because of its controlled mechanical con struction, blow holes do not form and pass dirty air.
'Efficiency of the filter actually increases as it becomes laden with dust. Dust particles deposited on the baffle surfaces absorb the sticky compound, and, in turn, retain additional dust particles. Vibration cannot settle or pack the filter and thus reduce its efficiency. Particles cannot N,break off and blow into the air stream.
WALTON AIR FILTER STANDARDS
Walton air filters are made in five standard sizes to fit most commonly used frames, special sizes for special requirements, and to standard or special specifications.

Somers Washable Air Filter
All Welded Vee Type
These filters eliminate the necessity, replacement.
Somers Hair Glass Filters provide everything required in an efficient air cleaning system. Consider these features: High rating for dust, soot and bacteria separation. Require no adhesive, coating or impregnation. Indestructible in normal
service. Minimum Low Pressure Drop. Odorless and non-absorptive. Fireproof;
Washable; Do not rot nor disintegrate; Permanent..
Somers Hair Glass Filters consist of a hot galvanized frame holding galvanized
wire doth packed with hair-spun glass strands. The glass strands are flexible, do not break up and cannot be drawn into air stream.
Hair-Glass, being chemically inert, has no facility of absorption; it cannot rust and lasts indefinitely in service. Water either hot or cold may be used to clean
it, without impairing its efficiency, expense and the inconvenience of periodic
