AiroClean420 50XL Commercial Air Sanitation Unit - 120 Volt Questions & Answers
Does AiroClean420 produce any Emissions?
No – there are no by-products (No Ozone, Hydro-Peroxides, or any other Emission) that are released from the bio-reactor.
Is AiroClean420 a solution for Infestation Prevention and what types of airborne contaminates will the system eliminate?
Yes, AiroClean420 air sanitizers are a customer proven solution for Infestation Prevention as they completely destroy airborne fungal diseases, like; Powdery Mildew, Downy Mildew, Gray Mold/Botrytis, Blight, Bacteria, Viruses, Odors, and VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) like Ethylene Gas.
How does AiroClean420 work?
The patented technology utilizes Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) to destroy harmful airborne microbes. A NASA Developed photocatalyst (incorporating TiO2) is used in the AiroClean420 air sanitizing systems. When this material is irradiated with the photons, from the proprietary UV lights, hydroxyl radicals are formed, which oxidize (reduce to trace elements of carbon dioxide and water) fungal diseases such as Powdery Mildew, Downy Mildew, Gray Mold/Botrytis, Blight, Bacteria, Viruses, Odors, and VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds) adsorbed on the catalyst surface. AiroClean420 air sanitization systems produce no ozone and are not a filtering system.
Is AiroClean420 Safe?
Yes – AiroClean420 is listed as an FDA (Food and Drug Administration) Class II Medical Device as well as being CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) approved. Thus, AiroClean420 is completely user friendly and environmentally safe.
How long has AiroClean420 been in commercial usage and what types of industries are utilizing AiroClean420 to improve and protect their Indoor Air Quality?
AiroClean420 first gained commercial acceptance within the Food and Beverage Industries during 2002. Since then thousands of units have been successfully placed in Perishable Cold Storage rooms, Food Processors, Wineries, Food Banks, Retail Supermarkets, Distribution Centers, Bakeries, Clean Rooms, Labs, Health Care, US Military, Residential Applications
Does the AiroClean420 system emit any light while turned on?
No – the unit does not emit any light. Additionally, the small On/Off Power Indicator light is a safe green glow.
What makes this Photocatalytic Oxidation technology different than others on the market?
Other attempts at using Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) coated materials that claim oxidation or pathogen destruction have proven ineffective because of slow oxidation efficiency. The intended catalysts in these cases are either not photocatalytically active and/or delaminate (or split into thin layers) easily. The patented AiroClean420 technology utilizes a nano particle science to make a titanium oxide membrane that is photocatalytically active, which also binds to the applied surface(s) without delaminating. Nanotechnology comprises technological developments on the nanometer scale, usually 0.1 to 100 nm, or ten thousand times smaller than the width of a human hair.
Is AiroClean420 Energy Efficient?
Yes, AiroClean420 was designed to be extremely energy efficient. In fact, our model uses less than 2 amps of power (at 110 volts).
What maintenance is required?
The only maintenance required is annual replacement of the proprietary UV lamps.
Where are the AiroClean420 Systems installed?
The systems should be suspended from the ceiling (same level as your lights) equal distance and in the center of the room.
