Air Cleaner Fine Test Dust (ACFTD)

Test dust for undertaking the multipass test according to ISO 4572. The quantities of the individual particle sizes are defined. In this way a consistent contamination basis for all multipass tests is ensured.

However, as ACFTD is sand of varying grain size, its effect on the filtering result cannot be applied directly to contamination with debris, which has different geometric shapes.
