If the humidity is over 60% Relative Humidity we recommend using a dehumidifier to reduce the humidity.
Information on Indoor Pollutants:
VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) – VOC’s come from motor vehicle exhausts, gasoline vapour, pollutants such as
formaldehyde, ammonia and many other common and chemical solvents - like paints and glues or can be a byproduct of mould growth. VOC’s cause irritation to the eyes and or nose as well as causing headaches, nausea, and
even potential damage to the central nervous system. Pressed wood furniture, newly decorated rooms, paint and
cleaning solvents are common sources of VOC’s.
MOLD / FUNGUS – These can affect our respiratory system and cause allergic reactions, like a runny nose, eye and
throat irritation, headaches, fatigue and aggravation of asthma. Other indoor pollutants include - bacteria, viruses,
dust mites and pollen, etc.
Emissions from electronic office equipment – Many studies, including those from EPA and the University of
California Berkeley, have reported that emissions from office equipment like, computers and printers etc. include
VOC’s, ultra-fine particles and ozone.
These emissions have been proven to have a negative effect on the health of many people.
Using HEPA and Carbon Activated filters, Plasma Ionization, VOC Filter, TIO2 photocatalyst and UV light.
An effective HEPA filter is absolutely necessary to remove particles, even at a microscopic level; it ensures that
the particles are not spread. Plasma Ioniser will sterilise the air and reduce bacterial growth.
UV light dramatically improve Indoor Air Quality by destroying airborne bio-contaminants such as viruses and
bacteria which may be a leading cause infections and discomfort. Ultraviolet air treatment systems have been
used for more than 50 years in hospitals and various other healthcare industries but with the advent of small
high-efficiency UV Lamps now the technology finds place in the domestic environment.
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is achieved when you combine UV light rays with a TiO2 (titanium oxide)
coated filter. Your ElectriQ air purifier features an advanced VOC Filter coated with TiO2 filter. This process of
photo catalytic oxidation creates hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions, which are highly reactive electrons
which will react with other elements in the air such as bacteria and especially VOCs. Once bound together, the
chemical reaction takes place between the super-charged particle and the pollutant, effectively burning
("oxidizing") the pollutant. This breaks the pollutant down into harmless carbon dioxide and water molecules,
making the air even cleaner.
The antibacterial activated carbon is a natural material biosynthesized from walnut shell, the adsorption area
of activated carbon is very large up to 900,000 square meters. The activated carbon filter will absorb
unpleasant odours and will help decomposing VOCs when combined with the TIO2 filter and UV light.

Diagram of the air purifier
PRE-FILTER: Captures initial dust and allergen particles
ACTIVATED CARBON: Absorb formaldehyde, benzene and other noxious gases.
HEPA: Captures dust, smoke, pollen and other allergens.
UV-C LIGHT: Destroys micro-organisms such as germs, viruses, bacteria and fungi (such as mold).
PCO: When photocatalyst titanium dioxide (TiO2) absorbs Ultraviolet (UV) radiation, it will produce a
chemical reaction that help remove oxidise VOCs, Odors and kill the germs.
Note: for maximum efficiency UV lamp cover is coated with TiO2
Ion: Negative ion improves the air quality by combining with dust or reacting with odor molecules
attached on the wall. Plenty of negative ions exist in natural surroundings such as waterfalls or
forests. In this mode, negative ions bring the room air close to this natural environment.
