FLOOR-Level - Filtration & UVG Irradiation of Air

Refers to filtration and irradiation of localised, of internal space air with small volume autonomous units placed on the floor, – whether it is in separate rooms, or groups of units arranged in open plan area according to manufacturer’s instructions.

Why? The virus is airborne by attachment.

Dynamic, local area, Recirculating Filtration will:

a. Remove a large part of the airborne molecules (especially the larger size, heavy ones) at Low level (0.20 to 1.5m), within the surrounding local area, by retaining them on the filters of the system.

b. Inactivate the viruses by altering their RNA so that they are no longer able to multiply.

How? The air is drawn in through low level grills placed on the local unit, and treated by passing through filters and UVGI lamps, it is then extracted back into the space (either from the unit top or the unit sides).

The filtering unit is composed of a series of filters, one of which is a HEPA filter able to stop molecules down to a 1 micron, and a set of UVGI ( = Ultra Violet Germicidal Irradiation ) lamps, which inactivate the viruses on any molecules that were not stopped by the filters.

Action? Install Local, floor standing, ductless unit/units, according to area coverage recommended by manufacturer.

Advantages:

• Able to treat low level areas providing better treatment of the air that the customer or the personnel is moving or working in.

• Very small to zero installation costs.

• Small maintenance cost.

• Does not obstruct / stop business flow for installation

• Does not require high level ceilings

Disadvantages:

• Air flow can be obstructed by furniture or decorative features.

• Needs more than one unit to cover all spaces and angles.

• Takes up valuable floor space.

• Can create uncomfortable air drafts.

• Possibility of accident
