Description
Air purification is a key component in improving air quality indoors. There are many benefits to having good air quality including increased student engagement, improved well-being for allergy and asthma sufferers and reducing the transmission of viruses, including COVID-19. The virus spreads through aerosolized particles that tend to hang in the air unless they are blown away or removed; air purifiers can do both.
To prevent the spread of airborne viruses indoors, the air should be refreshed five to six times per hour, however, over half of existing school and building ventilation systems are outdated and achieve less than that. Placing portable air purifiers in these spaces helps reduce the amount of airborne contaminants, including viruses by refreshing and purifying the air as it passes through its filters. Unit measures: 18" W x 10.5" D x 22" H.
Features:
• Effective - Removes at least 99.97% of airborne contaminants in one pass with dual True HEPA filters and circulates the air of an average classroom* 5.2 times per hour.
• Safe and easy-to use - Includes a child safety lock, timer and five fan speeds to adjust to the environment. The filters are easy to replace when needed.
• Quiet - The purifier has a decibel level of approximately 44dB, which is the same level as a normal conversation and blends into the environment like white noise.
Technical features and specs:
• Dual True HEPA filters that capture at least 99.97% of particles measuring 0.3 microns
• Also removes common allergens from the air (dust, pollen, mold, bacteria)
• Lab tested for HEPA efficacy using smoke which represents the smallest of particles
• The unit’s air changes per hour (ACH) is 5.2 times* in a room approximately 750 sq ft
• The clean air delivery rate (CADR) is 365 cubic feet per minute (CFM) which means every minute, 365 cubic feet of air is purified
• Approximately 44dB (normal conversation noise level)
• ETL listed to UL 507 standard (pending)
Functional and user-friendly features:
• Four fan speeds
• Timer
• Child safety lock
• Indicator to prompt filter replacement
• Dual HEPA filters (filter lifetime is 1600 hours or approximately 1 year of use in a school setting)
• Four casters
*The Portable True HEPA Air Purifier is designed for an average classroom that is 750 sq ft, with ceilings at 8 ft height. Fan speed, ceiling height, age of HVAC and other ventilation are all variables that affect total air changes per hour (ACH). To achieve optimum air purification for your room size, please contact your Copernicus representative to calculate the right number of units for your space. You will need to provide the room size and ceiling height.
