In order to counter the escalating risk of infection from corona viruses, temporary quarantine stations or makeshift hospitals are currently being set up everywhere in gymnasiums or barracks: whether for people entering from high-risk areas at the national borders, in asylum seekers’ and refugees’ accommodation or in individual communities, in order to enforce quarantine regulations by force and to relieve the burden on hospitals, outpatient clinics or general practitioners. As a result, it is precisely these facilities that become hotspots for a possible virus infection. A professional air humidification of 50 % effectively reduces this risk.
Scientific studies show that up to 3 hours of coughed up viruses remain in the room air. But further studies also show that a humidity level of over 40% kills coughing up flu, cold or corona viruses within minutes. Trotec’s professional humidifiers generate a relative humidity that is healthy for humans within a corridor of 40 to 60 percent – thus limiting the survivability of viruses within the quarantine stations and significantly reducing the risk of infection.
Professional air humidification reduces the risk of infection and contagion
In the case of Influenza Viruses it was already established years ago that at an air humidity of up to 23 percent, about three quarters of the virus particles coughed up are still infectious after at least one hour. From about 43 percent humidity, the proportion of infectious particles shrinks to only about a fifth, because the absorbed water content makes them heavier and they sink to the ground faster. So the more humid the air, the worse off the viruses are!
The hygrostat-controlled Trotec humidifiers ensure optimally regulated humidity and purified room air. The units require little maintenance during operation and are attractively priced. The most important criteria for the appropriate device are the room size in combination with humidification performance.
The hygrostat-controlled large-capacity humidifier B 400 puts an end to excessively dry room air in large rooms, such as gymnasiums, sports facilities or exhibition halls. With a high evaporation capacity of 60 l/24h, the mobile B 400 pane humidifier is recommended for almost limitless air optimisation of heavily frequented areas up to 360 m² or 900 m³. If this is not sufficient, several units can be set up simultaneously at different locations in the room.
For both low-maintenance and safe continuous operation, the B 400 evaporation humidifier has a large 32-litre water tank with level indicator and status light, an optional fixed water connection (which makes manual refilling of the water tank unnecessary) and a low-noise 2-stage fan with automatic switch-off when the target value is reached. In this way, the individually desired room climate can be optimally adjusted. Thanks to the variable outlet grilles and the supplied wall spacer, it is guaranteed that the air blown out circulates optimally in the room. The infinitely variable hygrostat control humidifies the room to the preset target value and switches the unit off when the target value is reached until it is necessary to humidify the room again.
