With the current COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most important aspects is the health and well-being of our medical professionals and all persons exposed to the virus, at risk to their own personal safety and that of their families. It is also vital to take appropriate measures in de-escalation and spaces that will inevitably have an influx of people. Therefore, air disinfection appears as an essential aspect when resuming our life in society.
COVID-19 is transmitted through droplets produced by coughing and sneezing, combined with the large number of patients they interact with, current HVAC particulate air filtration systems in hospitals and other care facilities are in danger of being overwhelmed with the bioburden. This makes supplemental air filtration all the more important to protect patients and the healthcare personnel who care for them.
Thanks to the same engineering principles used to design airborne particulate filtration in cleanrooms, FILTR, a Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions company, offers the help you need.
Utilizing a patented Ultra-HEPA design, FILTR Revolution features 99.95% removal efficiency of all particles, such as mold spores, smoke particles and/or viruses . FILTR's bipolar ionization option expands its prevention solutions with ozone-free negative ions. Thus, it eliminates airborne and surface pathogens, providing air disinfection and creating a safer environment for everyone.
In addition, the new FILTR Revolution has an integrated particulate detector (PM2.5) that detects and records increased counts. It also integrates a sensor package that includes temperature, humidity and VOC data for complete room monitoring. In this way, all data is stored in the cloud and can be viewed through the FILTR mobile app.
Main characteristics:
- Flow rate up to 700 CFM / 1189 m3/h.
- Incorporates HEPA cleanroom filters for particle sizes down to 0.01 micron - removes bacteria, viruses and microbes.
- Removes harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the air thanks to its carbon filter.
- Integrated sensors provide real-time environmental data status for PM 2.5, VOC, temperature and humidity.
- Metal casing and wheels for easy handling.
- Different mounting options: air inlet or outlet for rooms with positive or negative pressure.
It is the perfect solution for keeping patients safe and protecting medical professionals from exposure. Also for places where there must be an influx of people. Ultimately, FILTR is the solution to complement the safety of ALL involved and, as a result, the care system can continue unhindered.
