FILTER MEDIA

There are three stages of filtration in the AMAIRCARE Air Filtration System. Air is drawn into the top of the unit through the duct opening above the front compartment and is exhausted through the duct opening above the rear fan compartment. The three stages of filtration are as follows:

STAGE 1: As air enters the air treatment system it first passes through 3/16” thick activated carbon impregnated non-woven polyester pre-filter. This first stage of fil- tration removes the larger particles of dust and adsorbs[JPS1]* gaseous contami- nants.

STAGE 2: After passing through the pre-filter, the air then moves through a high efficiency particulate removal filter. The “HEPA” (High Efficiency Particulate Arrestance) filter media is laser tested to remove 99.97% of the particles in the air stream down to a size of 0.3 microns. Particles of concern which are normally in this size range include pollen, household dust, cigarette smoke, bacteria, animal dander, molds, etc.

STAGE 3: The clean air stream then passes through a 1/2” inner blanket of activat- ed carbon impregnated non-woven polyester filter material. This final stage of fil- tering adsorbs additional gaseous contaminants such as odors and toxic fumes.

SERVICE LIFE

The useful service life of the filter media in the AMAIRCARE Air Filtration System is directly related to the volume of air passed through the system and the amount of contaminants in the air. In a typical residential application, the Stage 1 and Stage 3 filter media should be replaced every three to six months. The Stage 2 HEPA filter should retain peak performance for a period of two to five years, again, depending on the amount of particulate in the air and the maintenance of the Stage 1 pre-filter.

The Americair series, including the models 4000V, 8500, 10000, 6500, and 5000V, represents a significant advancement in air purification technology. Designed for commercial and industrial applications, these units are engineered to enhance indoor air quality while ensuring maximum efficiency and user convenience.

One of the standout features across these models is the use of advanced HEPA filtration system. HEPA filters are designed to capture at least 99.97% of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, smoke, and other allergens, down to 0.3 microns in size. This capability is crucial for environments that demand stringent air quality standards, such as hospitals, schools, and offices.

The Americair 4000V model is tailored for smaller spaces, yet it packs a powerful punch with a CADR (Clean Air Delivery Rate) that ensures rapid air cleaning. It's particularly suited for rooms up to 400 square feet, making it ideal for small businesses and home offices. The user-friendly interface allows for easy adjustments, and the lightweight design ensures portability.

Moving up in capacity, the Americair 5000V and 6500 models cater to medium-sized rooms, providing enhanced CADR levels. These units incorporate smart technology, allowing for app connectivity, enabling users to monitor air quality in real time and receive notifications for filter changes.

The Americair 8500 and 10000 models are designed for larger spaces such as auditoriums and open-plan offices. With high-performance motors and multi-stage filtration systems, these models not only purify the air but also circulate it efficiently. Additionally, they come equipped with UV-C light technology, which works to eliminate germs and bacteria, enhancing health safety in populated areas.

All models feature energy-efficient designs, ensuring they consume less power while maintaining high performance levels. Noise reduction technology is also integrated, making these units operate quietly, an essential factor for environments requiring minimal disruption.

In conclusion, the Americair series stands out with its combination of powerful filtration, energy efficiency, and user-friendly technology. Whether for a small office or a large industrial space, these models provide versatile solutions for improving indoor air quality, promoting a healthier environment for all.
