PROPERTIES OF YOUR NEW AIR PURIFIER AG+ AIR-
PROTECT
The GASTROBACK Air Purifier AG+ AirProtect will actively help to protect your
health and well-being by removing many harmful pollutants, unpleasant odours, a
lot of allergens and infective micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses, spores of mould)
from the air in your living rooms. For this, the appliance uses 3 different filter units:
NOTE
PM2.5 denotes dust with the particle size between 0.01 µm and 2.5 µm.
•
Pre-filter:
catches most of the coarse parts of the dust (e.g. fine hairs, fibres,
dandruffs). You may clean the pre-filter via a vacuum cleaner and replace it,
when the other filter units need replacement.
•
High efficiency silver ion filter:
This HEPA filter meats the European Norms
concerning the removal of very small particles (e.g. smoke). Only little amounts
of fine PM2.5 particles penetrate this type of filter, although the capacity of this
filter is high.
Via an additional silver ion coating of the filter surfaces, more than 99% of micro-
organisms are destroyed within 30 minutes. This effect has been proved in tests
even for the human corona virus.
•
Nano cristalline filter:
This filter is made of non-toxic natural minerals. The
nano cristalline surface removes harmful gases and vapours: formaldehyde (e.g.
from furniture, home fabrics, electrical devices and adhesives), benzene, other
solvents and ammonia (e.g. from paints, coatings, and cleaners) as well as
unpleasant odours.
The finely textured surface removes even smallest particles.
Due to the particular physico-chemical properties of the nanocrystalline surface,
the particles react with air to harmless gases, when the filter is exposed to sun-
light. This is the basis of the cleaning method for this filter unit.
Furthermore, 2 additional sterilisation systems can be activated for destroying any
mikro-organisms that penetrated the filter units:
• UV disinfection: Mikro-organisms are killed via intense UV radiation.
• Plasma disinfection: The plasma chamber generates highly reactive particles
from normal compounds of the air. Via this particles, mikro-organisms are destro-
yed and therefore no longer infective.
