About the Negative Air Machine/Air Scrubber
The OptiClean™ is a portable solution primarily designed to help
convert normal hospital rooms into Airborne Infectious Isolation Rooms
(AIIR). Designed to ASHRAE’s Standard 170 for Ventilation of Health
Care Facilities, the OptiClean™ uses highly efficient filters and a heavy
duty, yet quiet, motor to remove contaminated air from the room. The
resulting negative air pressure, or “vacuum effect,” helps limit the spread
of air-based contaminants into surrounding areas.
If negative pressure is not required, such as in an open-air temporary
hospital, a business location or home, the machine can be used as an air
“scrubber,” pulling air in, removing many contaminants, and discharging
cleaner air back into the room.
The OptiClean™ negative air machine/scrubber features:
• 99.97% efficient long-life HEPA filter removes particles as small as
0.3 microns
• Standard MERV 7 or higher pre-filter
• Minimum 200 CFM and Maximum 1500 CFM
• Meets or exceeds ASHRAE Standard 170: Ventilation of Health Care
Facilities
• Vertical design for smaller footprint compared to many competitors,
and can be mounted and operated horizontally when necessary
• Portable and adaptable to nearly any location
• Heavy duty locking casters for easy and smooth transport
• HEPA filter rack and sealing design meet air leakage requirement
• Red lighted indicator to alert user when filters are overloaded
(generally means pre-filter requires replacement)
• Green ON/OFF switch illuminates to verify when running
• 3-speed selector switch on 006 and 015 size models for various air
flow ranges
• 10-foot long power cord with strain relief
• 115V
