Further information

PM2.5

Fine dust is also known as PM2.5. This refers to the size of the dust particles, half of

which at PM2.5 are particles with a diameter of 2.5µm and a smaller proportion of larger

particles and a larger proportion of smaller particles.

The size of the fine dust is usually less than that of a bacterium and can therefore not be

seen with the naked eye.

Filter system:

Prefilter

The main filter has a pre-filter cover. This is a relatively wide-meshed filter which catches

the coarsest particles from the air flowing through it. This process additionally protects

the HEPA filter element from these particles and thus increases the service life of the

HEPA filter.

HEPA Filter

In order to remove even the smallest particles, the room air flows through a HEPA filter

during the cleaning process, which absorbs pollen, fine dust and spores among other

things.

Activated charcoal filter

In the next step, the air now freed of solids is filtered through an activated carbon filter.

processed. In this working process odours and toxins are absorbed. Here

granulated activated carbon, as this has a high degree of efficiency and a large

total surface area.

Photocatalytic filter

With the help of this filter odours and bacteria can be fought effectively. Organic

compounds are broken down by means of the photocatalytic effect produced by

irradiation with UV light. Oxygen atoms are attached to organic compounds and gradually

broken down into H2O and

CO2.

Ultraviolet light

Besides the activation of the photocatalysis filter, the ultraviolet radiation has a

disinfecting effect. Thus bacteria and viruses are killed by the irradiation with UV light.

Ionizer

In the last step, the air that finally flows out of the device is mixed with a small amount

of negatively charged ions. These ions are deposited in the room air on the smallest

particles

and charge them statically. The charged particles then tend to accumulate with other

particles and form larger clusters which can then be more easily absorbed by the filter

medium.

EN-11 www.comedes.com

Notes on air cleaning for cigarette smoke

Cigarette smoke consists of numerous complex chemical compounds. For the air purifier,

it is essentially divided into solid components of smoke and gaseous components of

smoke. The solid smoke particles are filtered out by the HEPA filter. The gaseous

components are absorbed by the activated carbon filter.

• The device should be placed as close as possible to the smoke source.

• The unit should not be placed on the floor (for smokers it is recommended to place it

on a table).

• Depending on how many cigarettes are smoked, the service life of the filter is

shortened.

Information on air cleaning in case of problems with pollen

The air purifier is able to filter all common pollen from the air. These remain in the HEPA

filter. We recommend the creation of a refuge so that the device can develop its full effect

and significantly reduce the pollen concentration,

that contains the air purifier. The device can only remove airborne allergens. But not

allergens that have already deposited on beds, walls, furniture, etc.. Therefore

Please note the following information:

• Carry out a basic cleaning of the room before using the device.

• Do not use dust cloths for cleaning, but a damp cloth.

• Vacuum upholstered furniture at least once a week. Use a vacuum cleaner suitable for

allergy sufferers.

• Wipe the room wet at least once a week.

• Depending on the size and design of the room, let the unit run at levels 1-4 during

the day. Place the device on a table. Don't put it on the floor.

• Turn off the device for sleeping.

• Set the fan speed to 5 during ventilation. The best time to air the rooms is between

6:00 and 8:00 in the morning in cities or from 19:00 in rural areas.

Information on air cleaning in case of problems with house dust

House dust is usually produced by mites, which can be found in upholstered furniture,

cushions, blankets and

Mattresses live. The house dust remains there for the time being. The air purifier can

only remove house dust

out of the air. Therefore, it is recommended to turn off sources of house dust before you

an air purifier.

• Cover mattresses allergen-proof (Encasing).

• Cover pillow and duvet allergen-tight.

• Wash pillows and duvets frequently.

• Replace older mattresses.

• Use vacuum cleaner with fine filter.

• Vacuum mattresses monthly.

• Avoid dust traps in the bedroom.

• Do not place indoor plants in the bedroom.

This product must not be disposed of with household waste. This air purifier

must be disposed of at a recycling point for electronic and electrical

equipment.
