Please provide more information.

What kind of blower?

How much air is it designed to move?

At what static pressure?

What is the purpose of the blower?

Why do you think you need a filter?

I can help you if you can tell me more.

Dear

Assuming that the blower is taking ambient air from an environment where also people are present, the air is not dust laden. (Otherwise, the intake must be moved to a cleaner place)

Any coarse non woven filter material will do, with a calculated filter air velocity

of approx. 1 m/sec.

Intake pressure drop not more than 10-20 mmWC.

Any intake under pressure reduces the air mass flow of the blower.

1m/s is very large velocity.

Thank you for your link. I have found several suppliers.

Right, the pressure drop will influence the intake volume.
