Now it is even more dangerous because even more infectious mutants of coronavirus are attacking us. But behind this bad news, there are two good news: according to studies by leading virologists, the current vaccines also protect from mutants of coronavirus. And secondly, this even more insidious variant does not fly through the air sporadically, but is always trapped in the air in larger droplets, i.e. In the form of aerosols. And as a result become an easy target for the air washer AW 20 S, which is finally available again …
The next few months, before the corona vaccine gradually promises general protection, will once again be really dangerous for us all. This is because we breathe in around 8,000 litres of air every day – approx. 80 % of which is indoors. And even in one cubic centimetre of air, there are up to 50,000 particles such as fine dust and pollen, and also bacteria or aerosol particles contaminated with influenza (flu) and corona viruses. The air washer AW 20 S is a valuable, additional shield protecting us against these health-threatening particles. Because thanks to the combined air washing including humidification plus double HEPA filtration, it frees the air of these tiny airborne particles down to a size of 0,3 µm. It is important to know that when we breathe, we emit tiny droplets measuring up to about 1 µm, whereas when we cough, the aerosols are ten times larger, measuring up to 10 µm. This means that viruses, bacteria, pollen, mite excrement, fungal spores and dust are an easy target for our air washer and it achieves a separation efficiency of 97.97 %!
Air humidification and HEPA filtration – both provide efficient protection against aerosols
Latest research results show how important high air humidity is for combating insidious, infectious aerosols. If the relative humidity of the room air is below 40 percent, the particles released by infected persons absorb less water, remain lighter, fly further through the room and are more likely to be inhaled by healthy people. In addition, when the air is dry, our nasal mucous membranes also become drier, allowing viruses and other harmful matter to pass more easily. The intelligent combination sensor of the air washer AW 20 S prevents this effect of having excessively dry room air: in addition to relative humidity, it also permanently detects the particle load in the room air and automatically controls the automatic mode for perfectly humidifies and purified air. Furthermore, the 3-1 comfort device has a lot more to offer in terms of maximum air purification efficiency …
Here’s how it works
The air washer AW 20 S offers health protection through improved indoor air quality in rooms of up to 55 m² or 138 m³. In contrast to conventional air purifiers, which additionally dry out the already dry heated air during colder seasons, the AW 20 S simultaneously cleans and humidifies the air in a hygienically flawless manner. Particles contained in the air it draws in are bound with a film of water and washed off by a rotating humidifier disk in the 9-litre water tank. The three-stage high-performance filter technology with two high-quality HEPA filters (99.97 % separation efficiency) additionally frees the air from tiny suspended particles, viruses, bacteria, pollen, mite excrement, fungal spores and dust, down to a particle size of 0.3 µ. The multi-level air hygiene system is rounded off by plasma ionisation to eliminate unpleasant tobacco, food or animal odours.
Triple operating principle of air washing: cleaning, humidification, odour neutralization
The combination of three air purification processes and multi-stage filtration through pre-filters and HEPA filters make the air washer AW 20 S the undisputed leader in its equipment class.
1. Cleaning process: coarse particle filter and air washing
The unit guides the room air it draws in through a pre-filter for coarse dirt, then past a rotating humidifier disc, where water molecules are absorbed, while dirt particles such as pollen or dust stick to the disc and are washed off in the water tank. The water molecules are absorbed via self-regulating cold evaporation, ensuring optimal air humidity values.
2. Cleaning process: double HEPA filtering
By using two HEPA filters, airborne viruses, bacteria, fungi, mould spores, pollen, dust and other pollutants are removed from the room air with a separation efficiency of 99.97 %.
3. Cleaning process: plasma ionisation
With plasma ionisation, which can be switched on as required, a further cleaning cycle starts according to the natural principle of nature. Similar to a “cleansing storm”, both positive ions (hydrogen) and negative ions (oxygen) are generated and blown into the room with the air which has been purified and humidified by the HEPA filters. The bioactive bundling of the ions in the ambient air, forming what are known as cluster ions, causes water to be extracted from the pollutants in the ambient air. This eliminates pollutants and odours contained in the room air.
Your advantages at a glance – the air washer AW 20 S …
- impresses as a 3-in-1 combination device with the functions humidifier, HEPA air purifier and odour eliminator (plasma ionisation)
- keeps the room air optimally humidified and reliably cleans it from viruses, bacteria, house dust, pollen, mould spores, mite residues, animal hair and odours
- has a switchable HEPA filter with 97.97 % separation efficiency
- can be used for air purification all year round thanks to a humidification function that can be switched on and off separately
- has a sensor-controlled automatic mode – an intelligent sensor measures the air quality and humidity for automatic control
- shows the current room air quality via a 3-step colour signal on the display
- has numerous other practical comfort functions such as whisper-quiet night operation, 9 different operating modes or variable fan control for adapting the room to suit requirements.
- scores points with its large water reservoir for long, maintenance-free operations. In addition, the device can be easily dismantled and cleaned quickly. This also makes regular filter changes easy.
