Airpura R600 Air Purifier 18lb Carbon, 2" Metal Cap HEPA

Airpura HEPA particulate removal air purifier controls dust, dust mites, pollen, dander and all airborne particulates to eliminate allergy triggers

Allergies and asthma are a major cause of illness and disability, affecting allergic people from infants to seniors. Because allergies are cumulative, building in allergic symptom severity with each successive exposure to particulate matter, minimizing exposure to all particulate allergens is vital for all allergic individuals. Common indoor particulate matter that triggers allergic symptoms include:

• Dust - Dust has long been the bane of meticulous housekeepers, and now there is another reason to banish it from the home. According to researchers, wheezing during the first year of life is more common in infants whose homes have high levels of bacterial endotoxin, an airway irritant that can be present in common house dust. HEPA filters are designed to remove dust as small as .3 microns, and do so quickly (Turned on HIGH, an Airpura can completely remove all particulate in a 2000 square foot area in 30 minutes.).
• Airborne Pollen Allergy - Pollen allergies and asthma symptoms triggered by trees, grass, plants and flowers that enter through windows and doors are quickly removed from the air with a HEPA filter.

Eliminating Allergens Is the Best Solution for Allergy and Asthma Sufferers

• Visible particles constitute only about 10% of indoor air.
• Smaller, "respirable" particles remain suspended in the air virtually indefinitely - until breathed into your lungs.
• The average person breathes in about 16,000 quarts of air per day. Each quart contains some 70,000 visible and invisible particles. That's over a billion particles per day that our lungs have to filter out!
• 100% of all respiratory ailments and disease are triggered by inhaled particulate. 100%.

Unique Features of Airpura

• All metal housing ensures no plastic vapors are emitted.
• Motor located out of the air flow. Most air cleaners blow the clean air over the motor and pick up impurities.
• Electrical parts in a sealed chamber out of the airflow, which increases safety and prevents off-gassing.
• Pressure sealed filter chamber prevents leakage of polluted air around filters.
• Felt gaskets seal the filter chamber to maximize filtration with no rubber off-gassing found with other filters.
• Clean modern appearance fits in any decor.
• Low noise level (at 6 feet) 28.1db on low, 62.3db on high (560 CFM)
• Simple and direct unimpeded internal airflow avoids the air turbulence, inefficiency and noise associated with more convoluted air cleaners.

Airpura R600 Technical Specifications

• Room Size: Effective for up to 2000 sq ft., depending on pollution levels.
• Air Flow:  560 CFM, more CFM than any other portable unit available. Recycles the air every 30 minutes on high.
• Fan/Motor: Permanent split capacitor, backward curved motorized impeller
• Watts: 120 on high, 40 on low
• Voltage Options: 115 volts or 220 volts
• Dimensions: 23" height, 15" diameter
• Weight: 45 lbs total weight
• Sound Level: 28.1db on low (at 6 feet), 62.3db on high (560cfm), (Room level 25.1db)
• Housing / Finish: Powder coat steel body, 4 easy roll casters
• Odor / Chemical Control: The Carbon Block has two microsuppress filters surrounding the carbon bed to contain the carbon within the filter and help inhibit the growth of microbials on the carbon filter. The regular carbon filter is 100% coconut shell. If VOCs, formaldehyde or ammonia are your main pollution, choose the V600 instead because it comes with a super carbon designed specifically for those problems.
• 2” Metal Capped HEPA Filter: Developed by the atomic energy commission to filter radio active particles as small as 0.3 microns. True HEPA 40 sq ft: Warm rolled to prevent cracking, 10 pleats per square inch maximizes filtration (other systems only use 6-8 folds). Spacers to make sure every fold filters. Traps particulate up to .3 microns. The metal capped HEPA filter removes the possibility of any plastic vapors from non-metal caps. The closed end on the HEPA cylinder completely seals the particle filtration process, eliminating the possibility of by-pass by particle-bearing air. Replace HEPA filter roughly every 5 years.
• Pre-filter: 570 sq in x 1" deep, can be vacuumed from the exterior of the unit and should be changed every 12 months, depending on use.
• Wall Mount Options: Suspension brackets are available for vertical or horizontal mounting on a wall or column.
• ETL Certification: Conforms to ANSI/UL 507 CSA C22.2 no 113
• Warranty: 5 year parts and 10 years labor.
