Electronic Air Cleaner - Electrify the Air You Breathe
The range of electronic commercial air purifiers and home air purifiers available today are self-contained electronic units, ideal for bars, restaurants, bingo halls, homes or any other indoor air space where cigarette smoke is a cause for concern. Electronic air cleaner technology works on the principle of electrostatic attraction, which is the attraction of positively charged airborne particles to the negatively charged air filter.
Unless air is passed through an electronic air filter, minuscule airborne particles inhaled during respiration could disrupt the functioning of cells within the human body. These airborne particles are so microscopic that they can easily bypass the body’s immune systems. Slowly but surely, we suffocate ourselves by remaining cocooned in well-insulated confined indoor spaces, which are not refreshed with outdoor healthy air. Therefore, the next time you are in a smoky disco or bar, remember that unless the air is being purified by some kind of air cleaner, you are damaging your health.
There are two types of electronic air purifiers. Both systems electrically charge particles and attract them to a collection material. The standard electronic air filter will collect charged particles on a grid or metal plate designed to attract those particles. Most electronic cleaners can obtain 95% efficiency or more on various particles when the collection plates and ionizing wires are clean, but they can lose some efficiency as they collect dirt. A newer technology in electronic air purifiers is called electronically enhanced media. It combines elements of both electronic and media air purifiers. Particles are electrically charged and then collected by the massive air cleaning media of a traditional high efficiency cleaner. The replacement of the media is simple and there are no plates to clean, efficiency is maintained throughout the media’s life. Electronically enhanced media air cleaners are 99% effective in the removal of numerous particle categories. Electronic air cleaning units generally have warranties of one to five years.
