Note:
Electrostatic
precipitators
aim
at
removing
particles,
which
are
responsible
for
a
proportion
of
total
odour
discharges.
However,
gas
odour
particles
remain
in
the
exhaust
downstream
from
the
filters.
AOM
recommends
the
use
of
AOM
Ozone
Generators
to
inject
ozone
into
the
exhaust
downstream
from
the
ESP
unit
in
order
to
mitigate
the
remaining
odour.
The
overall
AOM
system
has
been
independently
tested
as
per
the
requirements
of
AS1668.2
‐
2012
and
allows
for
the
determination
of
“deemed
airflow
rates”
and
the
definition
of
engineered
kitchen
exhaust
discharge
solutions.
5.1.2
Based
on
the
different
components,
the
EAN
ESP
unit
functions
as
follows
‐
The
prefilter
acts
as
a
barrier
for
large
grease
and
other
particle
material
from
entering
into
the
electrostatic
filter.
‐
The
electrostatic
cells
which
function
as
follows:
o
High
Voltage
13
kV
tungsten
ionising
wires
which
are
spring
mounted
within
an
aluminium
frame
distribute
an
electrical
charge
to
particle
matter.
o
Equally
spaced
low
voltage
collection
plates
attract
the
charged
particles.
The
particles
slide
down
the
plates
into
the
tray
below.
‐
The
electrostatic
cells
receive
high
voltage
from
the
EAN
ESP
unit
through
the
connection
insulators
located
within
the
unit
door.
The
connection
between
the
cell
and
the
insulator
is
done
using
connecting
springs
located
on
the
ESP
cell.
The
connection
between
the
cells
within
the
unit
is
done
using
connecting
plates
and
springs
located
on
the
ESP
cells.
‐
A
removable
grease
tray
collects
grease
and
particle
matter
that
slides
down
the
aluminium
plates.
‐
The
EAN
ESP
unit
door
is
equipped
with:
o
Lock
and
door
handle
to
open
the
door
and
access
the
unit
electronics
o
Voltmeter
indicating
the
voltage
received
by
the
unit
o
Amperemeter
indicating
the
consumed
amperage
of
the
unit
(see
below
for
the
recommended
amperage
values)
o
ON/OFF
switch
and
indicator
lights:
Green
LED
light
indicates
unit
is
on,
RED
LED
light
indicates
that
the
unit
requires
cleaning
and
/
or
servicing
o
In
built
cooling
fan:
ensures
that
the
electronics
remain
at
a
constant
temperature

CERTIFICATION
AND
TESTING
6.1.1
Electrostatic
filters
are
and
proven
and
widely
used
filtration
method
for
kitchen
exhaust.
ASHRAE
Systems
&
Equipment
1996
testing
results
concluded
that
"Electronic
air
cleaners
can
be
highly
efficient
filters
using
electrostatic
precipitation
to
remove
and
collect
particulate
contaminates
such
as
dusts,
smoke,
and
pollen.
The
designation
electronic
air
cleaner
denotes
a
precipitator
for
HVAC
air
filtration.
This
type
of
air
cleaner
can
remove
and
collect
contaminates
with
an
average
efficiencies
up
to
98%,
when
tested
in
accordance
with
ASHRAE
Standard
52.1.
6.1.2
The
AOM
FILTRAIR
system
is
currently
the
only
system
on
the
market
that
has
been
tested
and
certified
by
a
recognised
Australian
agency
to
filter
commercial
kitchen
exhaust.
The
University
of
Sydney
carried
out
efficiency
testing
on
a
Type
4
cooking
exhaust
as
per
AS1668.2
‐
2012
:
High
grease,
medium
heat
producing
equipment
such
as
countertop
barbecues
and
gas
fired
deep
fat
fryers
(certificate
available
on
request).
6.1.3
Tests
were
also
carried
out
on
a
double
pass
setup
(two
electrostatic
filters
in
series)
and
results
were
situated
out
of
the
testing
protocol
range
(range
was
between
0.5
‐
900
micron).
These
independent
testing
results
place
AOM
Australia
at
the
forefront
of
kitchen
exhaust
filtration
in
Australia
and
New
Zealand.
No
other
kitchen
exhaust
hood
on
the
market
is
able
to
independently
certify
a
filtration
efficiency
specific
to
kitchen
exhaust
airflows.
6.1.4
The
laboratory
test
results
have
been
confirmed
by
in
‐
situ
tests.
Independent
test
were
carried
out
during
high
volume
cooking
sessions
(lunch)
at
a
heavy
type
4
cooking
tenancy
(gas
chargrilling
of
steaks,
meat,
burgers,
bacon).
