Product overview
What it is and where it fits.
The AR206 P-Cell is a compact 4-inch (95 mm) deep mini-pleat panel filter for the medium-efficiency stage of air handling units, paint-booth intakes and prefiltration ahead of HEPA filters. Its pleats are held by adhesive beads rather than aluminium separators.
Water-resistant, dual-density glass-fibre paper and synthetic media options are described, with dust-spot efficiency grades of 60–65%, 80–85% and 90–95% (MERV 11, 13 and 14 in the catalogue).

Construction & performance
Compact format
A 4-inch (95 mm) deep mini-pleat filter for air handling units, paint-booth intake and prefiltration ahead of high-efficiency filters. A 24 × 24 in (595 × 595 mm) filter is rated at 3,400 m³/h (2,000 CFM).
Media & frames
The catalogue describes water-resistant, dual-density glass fiber paper and synthetic media options. Pleats are adhesive-supported without aluminum separators. Cardboard and metal frames are available.
Efficiency options
Dust-spot efficiency grades: 60–65%, 80–85% and 90–95% under the catalogue’s ASHRAE 52.1-1992 reference.
Selection guide
How to choose.
Upgrade without changing the housing
A P-Cell fits the same 4-inch slot as a pleated panel filter while offering much higher efficiency grades.
Pick the grade by position
Use 90–95% ahead of HEPA filters; 60–65% or 80–85% for general supply air.

Common questions.
What is a P-Cell filter?+
A compact mini-pleat panel filter, typically 4 inches deep, that gives medium-to-high efficiency in the space of a standard panel filter.
P-Cell or pocket filter?+
Both serve the medium-efficiency stage. A P-Cell is rigid and only 95 mm deep; a pocket filter needs a deeper housing but usually holds more dust.
