nir-vana innovation network

Czech company, founded in 1991 has a long term experience in designing control systems of special medical devices, has developed an air purifier based on patented technology and protected design. The purifier is intended for use in homes, offices and hotels. The SME wants to enter new markets with the device and therefore seeks cooperation based on distribution services agreement.

The purifier control unit design is based on experience with medical device control and allows a wide range of settings depending on the environment of use while maintaining maximum friendliness for user. The electric motor delivers sufficient power and fan blades with low air resistance ensure almost noiseless operation. Construction of the device is based on the use of wood and steel and contains a minimum of plastic parts, therefore, common pollution from plastic parts is reduced to minimum.

The purifier filter unit uses a proprietary combination of three types of filters - robust pellet carbon filter, the HEPA filter (High Efficiency Particulate Air) and the pre-filter for HEPA filter. That combination removes from the air up to 99% of solid impurities larger than 1 micron. In addition, the solution also catches up 20% more of gaseous pollutants, in comparison to competitors.

Thanks to robust filters the device has a high absorption capacity and 5 years´ filter exchange cycles in comparison to competitive solutions which normally achieve 1-2 year exchange cycles.

Compared to other types of air purifiers in which the individual parts are difficult to access, the offered air purifier is modular-based, thus control unit, motor unit and filter unit are easy to service and exchange.

Advantages & innovations

- Easy operation of the device, easy maintenance and service - Steel and wood construction with minimum of plastic parts = minimal pollution by gaseous pollutants (e.g. formaldehyde) - 20% higher effectiveness in catching gaseous pollutants - High-quality pre-filter for the absorption of larger solid impurities (e.g. visible dust, textile fibres, dandruff) increases the efficiency and service life of other filters of the air purifier. - Thanks to robust filters with high absorption capacity, 5 years filter exchange cycles are achieved against normal 1-2 year cycles.
