CAMFIL IAQ ANALYSIS

MONITORS AND MEASURES YOUR AIR QUALITY IN REAL-TIME
IAQ stands for Indoor Air Quality and is a measurement of the quality of indoor air. As an additional option for your CamCleaner system, you can choose Camfil IAQ Analysis, which provides a direct picture of the air quality in your rooms.
We monitor the air quality and all measurements are saved in an IAQ database containing millions of measurement values and benchmarks for the indoor environment and air quality.
As a customer, you have the option to view the analysis in real-time at the time of measuring, and all measurements can easily be compared with one another. A calibrated particle counter can be used to examine the number of particles in the air. By subscribing to this service, you, as our customer, will always have a particle counter on the location that is connected to a computer monitoring the indoor environment.
When an abnormal particle distribution is identified, or in cases of other suspected problems, we perform an analysis with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with an associated X-ray analysis system (EDAX). As required, the quantity, weight, and structure of the particles are analyzed, as well as the chemical composition of the air and element content. We have more than 10 years of experience in these analyses. We also work together with many of the world’s leading laboratories for further analysis. Our IAQ reports are based on the following standards for air classification: SS EN, SS EN ISO, and IEST.

WHY HEPA FILTRATION?

HEPA filters are part of the category of so-called “absolute filters”, the term is justified by the fact that filters have a high filtering efficiency. The City H air purifier is equipped with two HEPA H14 filters. HEPA H14 filters have an efficiency of 99.995% calculated on the size of MPPS.
At Camfil, each filter is tested according to EN1822 to certify the filter efficiency before they are shipped.

What are MPPS and its link to viruses?
The efficiency of HEPA filters is measured in MPPS (most penetrating particle size), which is the particle size that is most likely to navigate its way through a filter that represents the lowest efficiency of the filter. MPPS is generally between 0.1 and 0.25 microns. This means that a filter in class H14 allows for a passage of 0.005% of the particles of 0.1 microns.
For smaller or larger particles, the performance of that filter is even better. HEPA filters are also used in operating rooms, analysis labs, high containment laboratories (BSL3/BSL4), and pharmaceutical industries.
