Beta Ratio Efficiency Converter
Two data sheets can print the same micron figure on different bases. Convert every beta ratio or capture efficiency to the same scale before you compare cartridges, using efficiency = (β − 1) ÷ β.

Reference Values
| Beta ratio (β) | Capture efficiency | Particles passing per 1,000 upstream |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 50% | 500 |
| 10 | 90% | 100 |
| 75 | 98.67% | 13.3 |
| 200 | 99.5% | 5 |
| 1000 | 99.9% | 1 |
A beta ratio is only meaningful with its particle size and test method. If one supplier quotes β at 5 µm and another at 10 µm, the numbers do not compare, so ask for both at the same size.
Send Us the Figures You Are Comparing
We state the rating basis of each ECOFILTRONE™ pleated series at order release and can review a competing data sheet against the same scale.
