AIR PURIFIERS

A New Formula

for Clean Air…

TiO

2

+ UV = PCO

Photocatalytic Oxidization ( PCO )

Developed and used in space technology laboratories for both air and water purification,
the Photocatalytic Oxidation (PCO) process is simple and elegant.

A metal surface coated with a metal oxide is irradiated with UV light
to produce hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions.

The hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions break the molecular bonds of chemicals
they come into contact with and slice them into smaller compounds, that are further broken
down until only carbon dioxide and water vapor are left.

The specific type of metal oxide coating used is critical. Titanium dioxide (TiO

2

)

has proven to be the most effective, efficiently breaking down a wide range
of chemicals without producing harmful byproducts (such as ozone).

For maximum efficiency, the process requires a sufficient surface area of reflective
metal coated with a metal oxide to be positioned at a critical distance from the UV lamp
while still allowing a good flow of air to bring the airborne chemicals into contact
with the resulting hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions.

The Airpura TitanClean

Reflector

The TitanClean

Reflector provides a premium amount of TiO

2

coated surface area (115% of the width of the UV lamp).

The angled reflector design maximizes the range of
photo-catalytic oxidation within the filter chamber.

The UV germicidal lamp maintains 98% of its antigen
and pathogen destruction effect due to the interior
position of the TitanClean

reflector.

The location of the TitanClean

reflector and the UV light

in the center of the filter chamber allows them
to work in concert with the HEPA filter.

Particulate pollution is stopped by the HEPA filter before reaching
the reflector. This keeps the coated surface cleaner and more effective.
Contact time of airborne chemicals is increased as they slow down
passing through the HEPA. The diffusion of the germicidal dosage
from the UV lamp is enhanced in the confined chamber.

Available in the new Airpura P600 model or retrofitted to an existing UV unit

The TitanClean

reflector is offered as an integral part of the new P600 range of High Efficiency Air Purifiers

from Airpura featuring a choice of HEPA and Carbon filtration or as an add on to your existing UV600 model.
