Why KENT Eternal Air Purifier
We at KENT have always believed that clean and healthy life is a right of
every individual. This ethos is what made us to embark on the journey to
develop innovative solutions for cleaning water, fruits, vegetable, and air.
With the use of innovative technology and supported by a competent service
network, we have been able to create a brand that has become a synonym for
well-being and health.
Continuing with the tradition, we now present the KENT Eternal Air Purifier,
with state-of-the-art HEPA Technology to provide clean and particle-free air.
We all know that with every passing day, the air quality is worsening. Perhaps
what we are not aware of is that the air inside the house is more polluted as
compared to the air outside. This high concentration of pollutants especially
dust particles has an adverse effect on our health.
Bacteria, dust, pollen, odors, hazardous gases (e.g., formaldehyde, benzene,
etc.), soot, second-hand smoke, etc. are amongst the most common indoor
pollutants. These pollutants have a high shelf life up to 240 hours in some
cases. Inhaling these pollutants can lead to major complications like asthma,
flu, and other respiratory diseases. On day to day basis, a city dweller
spends almost 90% of the time indoors (either in the office or at home), which
means, the quality of indoor air is critical to one’s health.
We sincerely hope that Kent Eternal Air Purifier will bring you and your
family good health.

HEPA Filters
A HEPA (HEPA stands for high-efficiency particulate arrestor) is a type of
mechanical air filter, which removes 99.97% of particles of size less than 0.3
microns (a micron is one-millionth of a meter) in diameter from the air passed
through it.
HEPA uses three different mechanisms (Impact, Interception, and diffusion) to
catch and trap particles as they pass through in the air.
These three mechanisms allow HEPA filters to catch and trap carcinogens
particles larger than 0.3-micron size like dust mites, mold spores, pollen,
pet dander, and tobacco smoke.
These carcinogenic particles are highly injurious to health and are known to
cause a variety of health hazards like allergy, asthma, and lung cancer. These
particles cannot be removed by the normal filters available in the market.
Filtration Process
Setting up the Air Purifier
Your KENT Eternal Air Purifier is equipped with two filters for effective and
efficient air filtration. Acting as a line of defense, each filter performs a
customized role.
Filter 1 : Antibacterial HEPA Filter
Antibacterial HEPA filter not only removes suspended particles (SPN) PM2.5
from the air but also purifies PM 0.3 quite effectively. It also removes
bacteria passing via the compound filter.
Filter 2: Activated Carbon Filter
The filter has been specially designed in a honeycomb layout which offers
better gas dynamics, compared to a traditional filter. This unique design has
lower volume density at the same time its surface area is larger. This allows
for a higher adsorption efficiency and a smaller drag coefficient. It
effectively adsorbs formaldehyde as well as other volatile organic compounds
(benzene, xylene, diene and odor, etc.)
Installing Filters
The two filters used in KENT Eternal Air Purifier are shipped in a sealed
form. Before starting the purifier for the first time, make sure all the
plastic packing bags covering filters are completely removed.

Hold the handle on the back cover and gently pull to open. Remove it and keep it aside (Refer the adjoining figure).
-

or replacing of the filter. Not adhering to proper procedures may impair the
performance of the appliance.
Cleaning of Activated Carbon Filter
- Clean Activated Carbon Filter once in a month with a soft brush.
- Do not rinse/wash with water.
- Put the filter in a place with sufficient sunlight and good ventilation for 2-3 hours. Then clean both sides of the filter with the vacuum cleaner (using brush or crevice nozzle) to remove the dust on the surface.
- Regular cleaning and maintenance would extend the life of filter components.
- When the filter replacement indicator is on, replace it with new filters within 2 weeks’ time.
Note: Do not wash Activated Carbon Filter and Antibacterial HEPA Filter.
Precautions

-
Do not stick fingers or any other objects into the air outlet.
-
When using pesticides, turn off the appliance to prevent any chemical from being sucked in. The chemicals may accumulate in the machine and generate hazardous
pungent substances under certain circumstances. -

-
Do not block the air intake and outlet, which may otherwise reduce the machine’s cleaning capacity (the indoor air may not be cleaned thoroughly) and result in machine
breakdown. -
