How many CFM does this filter reduce the airflow?

You need to get a Can filter or a Phresh filter these suck well the one I had did!

I have not noticed any decrease in airflow, but I have not done any measurements. I'm sure Aprilaire could answer that question.

I have not experienced a noticeable drop in water pressure with this filter

I have a fairly powerful unit so I did not have a problem with the filter. It is pretty dense so it will reduce some of the airflow. But on the positive side, its easy to keep clean and reuse.

My recollection from reading the spec's is 135 CFM, but this is probably without the end piece nozzle and maybe even without the snout. These parts increase the velocity MPH out the end but reduce the airflow (Cubic Feet per Minute) due to higher pressure at the fan from the flow restriction.

Whatever place you put it, be sure it is secure. It should also complement air flow for dust collection and heat or ac sources? My concern is also access to changing the filters as they clog? It's an odd size filter. I'm considering making a pre filter frame to use cheaper filters from the box store. Good luck, be safe!

Dont know the CFM, but the fan is fairly quiet. Keeps the master bedroom ventilated at night without keeping me awake. Sorry not more details.

A 10" filter will have a flow-rate of 2 gpm, or less, and will decrease with use.

it can reduce it using the dupont wfpfc9001 filter cartridge. about $13.00 bucks

I haven't noticed any decrease in air flow. The upgrade kit and new filters make a tremendous difference in the air quality of my house - especially the allergens. Very clean.

I think a 600 CFM is a little too small. Personally I would look at a 700 or 750 CFM.

It's hard to tell because there are metal fittings on both ends, but the exterior diameter exceeds 1 1/2 inches. I've never had an issue with airflow. Sometimes I slurp up something too big and get a clog, but it's easy to unclog by putting the reverse end into the wall outlet. Once I had to take my old one outdoors and flush it out with a garden hose to unclog it. But mostly, the flow is fine for normal household use (including a dog!). I wouldn't try to use it as a shop vac on wood shavings, small hardware, etc.

Well, you want filters because you don't want dust going INTO your computer. You could use it for outtake but there's no benefits and yes, it will restrict air flow, but not that much.

Full measurement of the entire filter is about 140mm x 140mm outer measurement, with an effective 130mm x 130mm of filter, 10mm of magnet on all sides. The magnet will cover a slight portion of the fan, but I don't think it would significantly hinder performance. I use this filter, and honestly the dust it catches greatly outweighs the size of the frame.

I found this 1000 MPR rating to be a good compromise with my system. The higher rated version of this brand did indeed provide too much resistance and cut my air flow down way too much. Yes I would love to filter out every micro of airborne crud but I had to find a compromise between filter ability and air flow. This worked well for me. Hopefully it will for you too!

The nameplate does not mention CFM. I have had one for five years and it works well. The type and condition of your filter(s) will affect CFM

I think the flow rate will depend a lot on which filter you install inside it. I have used a 50 micron and a 30 micron filter and couldnt tell any difference in either one. My flow rate is not noticably diffe rent than it was before I installed the unit.
