Air Disinfection Evaluation, The Most Comprehensive Evaluation!
At a time when haze was in full swing, air purifiers were gaining a lot of popularity among consumers. This is because haze is a pollution visible to the naked eye, so people attach great importance to it. In fact, apart from haze, there are many health killers hidden in our daily home environment that we can’t see, the most likely to make us sick is bacteria.
According to the data, adults breathe at a calm rate of 12-20 times per minute, while children breathe at about 20 times per minute. During these 30,000 breaths per day, bacteria and other air pollutants are constantly invading our bodies and endangering the health of our families. To address this issue, we have selected a air disinfector randomly for evaluation.Here are the results of this air steriliser evaluation
Sterilization Function Of Air Sterilizer Evaluation
Air Steriliser ≠ Air Purifier
Modified air disinfectors look very similar to air purifiers, so some people may confuse them with air purifiers, but air disinfectors are not the same as air purifiers.
For air sterilisers, the requirements are more stringent, both in terms of qualification and for the product itself. One is the need for the Chinese Health and Welfare Commission to review and record, the second is the need for the manufacturer to obtain a licence, and the third is the requirement for the performance of the machine, with testing standards based on the Technical Specification for Disinfection and the need to do more than 2 experiments on the product.
In terms of working principle, this air steriliser effectively filters indoor bacteria, PM2.5, formaldehyde and other harmful substances through its internal pre-filter, integrated dust collection and deodorisation filter, waterwheel humidification filter and plasma generator, purifying and sterilising indoor air layer by layer and outputting very clean and hygienic air.
Uncovering the front panel , the first stage of filtration is a pre-filter that filters out large volumes of contaminants such as dust and hair, while extending the life of the dust collection filter.
After removing the pre-filter, you can see the integrated dust collection and deodorisation filter of this air steriliser. The seemingly simple filter actually contains multiple purification technologies.
To combat a wide range of harmful bacteria in the air, a lysozyme coating and a catechotoxin coating are incorporated into the integrated dust collection and deodorisation filter. The bio-lysozyme technology powerfully lyses the cell walls of disease-causing bacteria by hydrolysis, lysing the bacteria, while the chain catechu toxin binds and locks the captured virus, rendering it inactive.
In addition to this, the air disinfector has a built-in plasma generator which actively inhibits the activity of planktonic and attached bacteria by producing a highly ionised gas cloud. In addition, the filter has an H13-grade filter material, which also has a certain filtering effect on bacteria. These four germ elimination technologies are combined to create an air disinfector with excellent disinfection and germ elimination effects.
Powerful germ removal by the numbers
According to the report of the testing institute, this air disinfector has a removal rate of more than 99%* of the bacteria and can effectively remove 10 types of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus albicans, Serratia marcescens, Streptococcus haemolyticus, H1N1, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Aspergillus niger.
(*Bacterial toxicity removal rate of 99% or more refers to the inhibition rate for the above 10 kinds of bacteria and toxins, the data are measured by a third-party testing agency under specific laboratory conditions, the actual use may change depending on the use of different environments )
According to a test report on the natural airborne bacteria elimination rate by the Institute of Microbiology in Guangzhou, China, the air disinfector was switched on for field experiments in a non-laboratory environment with non-constant humidity and temperature, and its elimination rate of naturally occurring bacteria in the air was measured to be ≥90%, and the test conclusion was qualified.
This shows that this air disinfector has a very good germ removal capability even in the actual environment, and shows the high standards and requirements of Panasonic for air disinfector products.
PM2.5, formaldehyde all in one
This disinfector is equipped with a H13-rated HEPA filter, which not only intercepts harmful dust and bacteria, but is also a good fighter against PM2.5, with a high standard filter efficiency of 99.97% for particles from 0.3μm to 0.5μm.
The test found that when a small piece of tobacco pad was lit in the bedroom, generating a large amount of particulate matter, the initial PM2.5 concentration in the room was 251μg/m3 according to the PM2.5 monitor that comes with this air sanitiser, which was then switched on to the rapid speed setting of this air sanitiser.
After about 30 minutes of purification, the indoor PM2.5 concentration has been reduced to 11μg/m3 and the air quality has reached an excellent level.
This air steriliser also has a carbon free deodorising layer in the dust collection and deodorising integrated filter for the adsorption of formaldehyde.
According to reports from third-party monitoring agencies, this air disinfector also has a relatively good ability to remove formaldehyde, making it very useful for families moving to a new home or those with formaldehyde pollution.
Allergens, odors
Allergens and odours are also “enemies” of health and comfort at home. Thanks to its multi-filter technology, this air disinfector effectively reduces the 7 most common allergens in life, including pollen, cat allergens, dog allergens, dust mites, mould, bacteria and cigarettes.
For allergy-prone people or families with babies or pets, it creates a safe, healthy and comfortable air environment.
Not only a disinfector, but also a humidifier
This air steriliser has a humidifying function, which is used when the side tank is filled with water to humidify the air while purifying and removing germs.
However, unlike ordinary humidifiers, this air sanitiser does not use ultrasonic humidification, but rather vapourisation humidification. Ultrasonic humidification has large water vapour particles that are easy carriers of bacteria, which contradicts the point of the disinfector itself. The water vapour particles of vapour humidification are much smaller than the size of bacteria and are less likely to become a vector for bacteria.
Unique waterwheel type humidification filter with three-dimensional weaving, can effectively filter water impurities, to achieve uniform humidification throughout the house
In a real-life test, it took 10 minutes to raise the humidity level in the room from 59% to 70%
Noise And Power Performance Of Air Sterilizer Evaluation
In addition to the core functions, noise and power consumption have a significant impact on the consumer’s experience.
We measured the noise performance of this air disinfector at 25dB ambient noise level in low, medium and high speed.
By the numbers, this air steriliser was very quiet and barely perceptible in the low and medium gears, and relatively noisy in the rapid gears.
In terms of power consumption, we also tested the steady running power in all three gears.
As you can see, the air steriliser is still only about 47w even on the rapid speed setting, so you don’t have to worry about power consumption even when it’s on for a long time.
Appearance Design Of Air Sterilizer Evaluation
Japanese products have always been very refined and pay attention to quality details, as is the case with this air steriliser, which has a very good sense of quality and detailing throughout.
Most of the space in front of this air steriliser is taken up by a large white panel, which is also where the air inlet is located. To make the design less monotonous and more visually balanced, as well as functional, the engineers have included a large display indication area on the right side.
At the top of the display, the PM2.5 index and air humidity of the room can be obtained in real time, while at the bottom there are various indicators that allow the user to visually check the working status of the disinfector and reminders to change the filters, etc.
The lower indicator can be coloured depending on the air condition, blue for clean, purple for a little dirty and red for dirty.
The top of this disinfector has an air outlet and an operating panel with buttons for timer, PM2.5 mode, disinfection mode, airflow adjustment and on/off operation.
The colour scheme is white and champagne gold, not too bright, but versatile enough to suit a warm home style.
Summary Of Evaluation Of Air Sterilizer
It’s autumn, and when we talk about autumn, we all think about the crispness and weather, but with the big difference in temperature between day and night, the body’s resistance is relatively low, making it more susceptible to bacteria and viruses, especially if you have children at home. This disinfector has been tested and found to be effective in removing hidden germs from the home and reducing the chance of harmful bacteria, making it a good choice for families who are conscious of their health.
