Automobiles - Cabin air filter - Part 1: Test for particulate filtration
1 Scope
This part of GB/T 32085 specifies the test for particulate (including dust, pollen, etc.) filtration of automobile cabin air filters.
It is applicable to automobile cabin air filters with flow rate of 150m3/h ~ 680m3/h.

ΔPA
pressure loss on both sides of a new filter or filter element, expressed in pascals (Pa)
3.4
final pressure loss
ΔPE
pressure loss on both sides of a filter or filter element after the dust addition procedure is completed, expressed in pascals (Pa)
3.5
filtration area
A
surface area of a filter or filter element for the purpose of filtration, expressed in square metres, m2
3.6
fractional efficiency
Ef(x)
ability to remove particles of a specified size
3.7

4 Test conditions and test materials
4.1 Test conditions
4.1.1 Air condition
The temperature and relative humidity of air entering the air filter shall be (23±3)℃ and (50±2)% respectively. The above temperature and humidity shall be maintained during the whole process of testing the dust-holding capacity G of the filter. See Table D.2 for the summary of test conditions.
