Spanish term or phrase: filtro poliédrico
Hi,

I'd appreciate if you could help me with this term.

Context:
"Chasis portante en acero galvanizado con capacidad para poner un prefiltro G3 (50mm) y el filtro poliédrico F5."

I think it's something like this but can't find it in English. http://www.airtradecentre.com/ES/ES/documentation/G01.070.1-...

Thanks :)

mini pleat filter


Explanation:
En la referencia está el nombre en español y una marca Erispol (el mismo tipo de filtro que el de tu link), y en el documento pdf ese mismo filtro (Erispol) en inglés. Como está la foto en todos los links se ve que es el mismo tipo de filtro. Espero te sirva.

Robert, I would go for "polyhedral filters". As Joel noted below, the references for Multifarious are not trustworthy. I cannot tell you for sure this is already used in industry, since the links I found are mostly for patents, which leads me to believe this is a relatively new product in the market.

Asker: Hi, thanks, these are the same hits I got from google, could you please confirm that these are actually used in the industry, because they could also just be bad/literal translations.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
neutral  Joel Schaefer: Polyhedral is the obvious choice, but where did you get multifarious? Multifarious is not used with singular nouns. Also, the first two references are from non-native speaker sources and the third is meaningless.

  ->  Multifarious was a ProZ enter for Poliédrico. It's likely not adequate, you're tight.
