Pro-source PRO16292 Pleated Air Filter Merv 14 24x12x12

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PRO16292 is a MERV 14 pleated cartridge air filter designed for commercial and industrial air handling systems where high-efficiency particulate capture is required. Built on a galvanized steel frame with wet-laid microfiber paper media, this filter delivers 500 CFM maximum airflow at a final resistance of 1.5 inches w.g. Nominal dimensions are 24 x 12 x 12 inches, with actual dimensions of 23.5 x 11.5 x 12.5 inches. Licensed HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors typically specify this filter for applications that must meet ASHRAE or building code requirements for elevated filtration efficiency.

This cartridge filter suits commercial rooftop units, air handling units (AHUs), and large residential or light-commercial systems that accommodate a 12-inch-deep filter bank. At MERV 14, it captures fine particulate including combustion particles, lead dust, and certain bacteria-carrying particles. The integrated galvanized steel frame provides structural rigidity across a broad operating temperature range, rated to 200 degrees F, making it appropriate for both standard comfort-cooling systems and higher-temperature process-air applications. It ships with a package quantity of 1 and carries a minimum order quantity of 2 units.

Key Features

• MERV 14 filtration efficiency for high-particulate capture in commercial and industrial environments
• Wet-laid microfiber paper media provides consistent airflow resistance across the rated face velocity range
• Galvanized steel integrated frame maintains filter shape and seal integrity under high static pressure
• Rated to 200 degrees F maximum operating temperature
• Initial resistance ranges from 0.25 inches w.g. at 250 FPM to 0.78 inches w.g. at 625 FPM
• UL 900 listed for fire safety compliance in occupied buildings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement cartridge filter for air handling units and filter housings that accept a nominal 24 x 12 x 12 inch deep-loading cartridge configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician following applicable mechanical codes. Power down and lock out the air handling unit before removing the existing filter to prevent media damage and unfiltered bypass. Verify the housing accepts a nominal 12-inch-deep cartridge and confirm airflow direction arrows on the frame align with system airflow before seating the filter. Do not compress or cut the media to fit an undersized housing.
