Aerosols: how dangerous is it to go out for a meal? 3D study from Heinsberg shows the imminent danger with and without TAC V+ air purification
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
It has been suspected for some time, but has now been confirmed by numerous virologists: the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is not only transmitted through droplet infection, but actually in large part via inhaled aerosols. These particles, which are ejected when breathing and speaking, are tiny and, due to their light weight, float invisibly in the room air for up to several hours.

Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
Air purifiers are currently in demand as never before. They filter house dust, pollen, mould spores or bacteria from indoor air. In times of corona, many of these devices are also offered as a wonder weapon against the corona virus. Or they advertise air performance that could only be achieved without any filter at all. With this in mind, below we give you an overview of what to consider when buying an air purifier.

During the coronavirus pandemic, dangerous untruths, recommendations and superficial knowledge spread like wildfire on social media. For example, air conditioning units are branded as “virus spinners”, while fans are advertised as offering protection against infectious aerosols in the air – regardless of whether the window is open or closed. Which of these statements is true? What do you need to know about air conditioning units and fans in connection to the coronavirus? Let us explain below.
Air purifier TAC V+ creates safe visiting zones with protection against infection in nursing homes

The extent of the risk of infection with corona virus is currently still evident in nursing and retirement homes that are particularly in need of protection. Only a few days after the general lifting of the ban on visiting nursing homes, 31 people in a Düsseldorf nursing home are now infected with the corona virus. In another senior citizens’ home in Langerwehe (Düren district), 33 residents and 19 employees have tested positive for the virus in recent weeks. Other cities are currently testing the residents of their homes across the board, as random tests also revealed symptom-free infections in the beginning. Renewed bans on visits have been imposed, and there are now also stricter hygiene rules and protective measures for the nursing staff.

Book stores and libraries are open again. After seemingly endless weeks, bookworms can finally borrow books again and stock up on new reading material. Unfortunately, visitors will often have to wait longer for new and coveted books, DVDs or other loan media, as these are “quarantined” by corona.

Virologists and dental associations are in agreement: very small infectious particles (so-called aerosols with a size of approx. 0.3 – 0.4 μm) present in indoor air are one of the main causes for the rapid spread of the coronavirus. In his recommendations for dealing with the corona pandemic in schools or comparable institutions, Prof. Dr. med. Dieter Köhler writes: “Corona viruses are mainly transmitted via respiration; coughing and sneezing are less significant as compared to bacterial infections”.
It was in the air: numerous worshippers are infected with the coronavirus during a service. Mass infection promotes call for air purifiers in public areasIt was in the air: numerous worshippers are infected with the coronavirus during a service.

A new case of infection in Frankfurt shows how the importance of air purifiers in houses of worship and prayer. Despite the fulfilment of all requirements, a mass infection occurred after a church service. Experts are therefore increasingly demanding: only a permanent virus air purifier can protect against the inhalation of viral aerosols, which are expelled into the room, especially during loud prayer and singing, and these can remain in the air for hours. The new TAC V+ high-frequency air purifier from Trotec obviously completes insufficient hygiene concepts by providing effective protection against the risk of infection via indoor air. The air purifier quickly and effectively filters infectious aerosols from the air in the room – before they can enter the body via the respiratory tract.
Corona outbreak after a visit to a restaurant: Trotec explains why current hygiene concepts are probably inadequate – and provides novel infection protection
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
The importance of permanent air purifiers in restaurants is shown by the first corona outbreak shortly after many restaurants reopened. Only a permanent viral air purifier protects against the inhalation of viral aerosols, which are emitted into the room when speaking and can remain in the air for hours. The new TAC V+ high-frequency air purifier from Trotec completes insufficient hygiene measures with effective protection against the risk of infection via indoor air. The new type of air purifier filters infectious aerosols quickly and effectively from indoor air – before they are inhaled by employees or customers.
