3.2 The filters shall be approved and Listed by Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc. Class 1 when tested according to U. L. Standard 900 and CAN 4-S111.
4.0 BID ATTACHMENTS
4.1 One (1) ASHRAE 52.2 test report from an independent, commercially operated test lab. The supplier shall grant permission to the test lab which conducts the ASHRAE tests to verbally verify the test results to the purchaser on request.
5.0 PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS
5.1 Filter Construction
The filter shall consist of the 2 layers of synthetic media, heat sealed around the entire periphery of the internal wire support, and in the center to contain the support.
5.2 Filter Media
The filter shall be composed of 2 distinct layers of high loft polyester filter media. The combination of media will form a graded density filter with the most open media on the air entering side transitioning to denser media on the air leaving side. Both layers of media to be white in color. The air leaving side of the filter must be clearly printed to indicate the downstream side of the filter.
5.3 Filter Adhesive
A coating of filter adhesive must be applied between the two layers of filter media. The filter adhesive must be formulated from food grade products, including the base oil, refined from an agricultural crop. A Material Safety Data Sheet must be supplied with the filter showing that the adhesive is non-toxic and non-hazardous. No chlorinated paraffin, polybutene, or petroleum based adhesives are allowed.
5.4 Internal Wire Ring Support
The internal wire support frame shall be made of 9 gauge bright basic steel, and shall have cross wire supports.
6.0 PACKAGING AND IDENTIFICATION
Packaging shall provide adequate protection against damage or deterioration during shipment and allow complete identification of both the filters and the shipping container.
6.1 Package Markings
6.1.1 The name or tradename of the product
6.1.2 The nominal size of the filter
6.1.3 Name of Manufacturer
7.0 APPROVED INTERNATIONAL QUALITY SYSTEM
7.1 The manufacturer shall have implemented, or be in process of implementing, an approved international quality system based on ISO 9000 at the facility manufacturing this product.
7.1.1 If manufacturer has implemented an approved international quality system, the manufacturer shall make available documentation showing third party certification of same.
7.1.2 If manufacturer is in process of implementing an approved international quality system, manufacturer shall submit evidence illustrating progress towards compliance. Evidence is defined as a timetable for implementation plus one or more operating procedures.
7.2 If requested, manufacturer shall make available their procedures describing the monitoring of their Approved Vendors List (AVL).
7.3 If requested, manufacturer shall make available a copy of their Corporate Quality Manual.
7.4 Manufacturer shall provide evidence of a corporate quality policy which must be signed by an officer of the company.
