BSG TECHNOLOGY – PHOTOPLASMA™

The PURIZONE is an excellent tool designed to eliminate unpleasant odours at their source whilst cleaning and freshening the air.

When properly used, the PURIZONE significantly reduces bacteria and other harmful micro-organisms in the air and on surfaces. The Mini Powerzone® does not just mask odour with chemicals or perfumes; it actually destroys the odours leaving a cleaner, more pleasant environment.

BSG’s advanced Photoplasma™ technology is designed to sustainably enhance indoor environments. It goes beyond conventional cleaning methods by harnessing combination of negative ions, hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen, ultraviolet light and ozone.

The elements of Photoplasma™ quickly and actively break down the structure of contaminants by a chain of reactions. Eventually the contaminants are decomposed and converted to harmless molecules such as carbon dioxide and water vapour.

In essence, BSG’s Photoplasma™ advanced technology brings the holistic benefits of the outdoors, where nature’s cleansing mechanisms thrive, directly into our indoor spaces. It ensures a sustainably enhanced, healthier, and more refreshing living environment.

Q3. CAN THE PURIZONE UNIT BE USED IN A PERMANENTLY OCCUPIED SPACE?

A3: Yes, as the unit has various settings and can be switched on and off, usage of the device is fully controlled by the user. In addition, the levels of Ozone produced by the lamp are below the specified EU Regulations (Article EH40: Workplace Exposure Limits).

Q4. HOW DO I KNOW WHEN TO REPLACE THE LAMP?

A4: The Photoplasma™ lamp installed in the PURIZONE unit has a life span of 9000hrs. As the PURIZONE unit can be turned on & off / used as required, the replacement period for the lamp should be calculated by determining the average time the unit is used per day. Care Home Example – – if the PR Unit is switched on during the period that the reception team are in the office, calculate the average for the year = 12 hours per day x 365 days = 4,380 hrs – It can be estimated that the lamp should be replaced after 2 years
