As an expert in air purification technology, I have seen firsthand the importance of using high-quality filters to ensure clean and safe air. One type of filter that stands out above the rest is the medical grade HEPA filter. These filters are considered the most effective method of filtering air, with the ability to remove up to 99.995% of particles down to 0.1 microns. This makes them a crucial component in maintaining healthy indoor air quality. HEPA stands for High Efficiency Particulate Air, and true HEPA filters are rated H10 to H12. However, when it comes to medical grade filters, they are classified as H13 filters.
This means they are even more efficient at capturing particles, making them ideal for medical settings where clean air is essential for patient health. When you have a Sans air purifier in your indoor area, you can rest assured that the air you breathe is safe, clean, and pure. This is because the Sans air purifier uses a medical grade HEPA 13 filter, which works in conjunction with three other layers of air purification technology. Additionally, a pre-filter can be included in the configuration to help remove larger particles and extend the lifespan of the HEPA filter. It's important to note that not all HEPA filters are created equal. When looking for air purifiers and filters, it's crucial to consider the level of efficiency of the HEPA filter.
The Sans air purifier is equipped with a medical-grade HEPA 13 filter, which has been tested to remove at least 99.97% of particles of 0.3 microns in diameter and 99.95% of particles of 0.1 microns in diameter. But what exactly does this mean? According to Department of Energy standards, a HEPA filter must remove at least 99.97% of particles from the air that are 0.3 micrometers in diameter, also known as microns. This includes particles such as dust, pollen, pet dander, and even some bacteria and viruses. With a medical grade HEPA filter, you can trust that these harmful particles will be effectively removed from the air you breathe. One common misconception about HEPA filters is that they only capture particles that are equal to or larger than 0.3 microns. However, diffusion occurs in a HEPA filter when gas molecules smaller than 0.1 microns collide with each other and are delayed in their passage through the filter.
This means that even smaller particles can be captured by a medical grade HEPA filter. At Sans, we take pride in providing top-of-the-line air purification technology to our customers. That's why all of our ISO-Aire models are equipped with a medical grade HEPA 13 filter, as well as two additional levels of air purification technology: ozone-free bipolar ionization and UVC germicidal. These additional layers work together with the HEPA filter to provide the cleanest and purest air possible.
