The New Paradigm

The PLASMA UNIT

When electronically charged the transformer that is integrated into the device applies a high voltage
to the electrode plates thereby generating plasma.

The plasmaNorm module containing the Plasma Reactor when electronically charged, removes
odours caused by cooking in a domestic kitchen.

The Breakthrough for Residential Applications

ORIGINATING from the Space and Military Industry, the plasmaNorm technology was further developed
for the elimination of odours in restaurant and food processing industries.

In many European cities it is necessary to install plasma units in restaurants and food establishments
that will handle up to 60,000 cubic metres per hour so the residents are not subjected to unhealthy odours
and pollutants.

Plasma Reactor

Directly situated above the fan are the electrode plates. The transformer integrated into the device applies
a high voltage to the electrode plates thereby generating plasma. The plasma occurs as a result of the
extended supply of energy to the gaseous air. When contaminated air passes through an electromagnetic

eld created by plasmaNorm, the micro or non-thermal reaction causes oxidation of odour molecules

changing them into oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Now in kitchens that cannot be vented to the outside atmosphere in apartment buildings or when
the kitchen is in the centre of the house, a rangehood with a plasma unit in it will clear the air of all the

by-products of cooking so all of those offensive odours are removed from the atmosphere.

Rangecraft uses the revolutionary plasmaNorm

plasma air purication technology to effectively
and permanently remove the by-products of

cooking. Originating from the need for clean
air in space travel, the plasmaNorm technology
was developed for the effective elimination
of odours.

How does it work?

There are three basic forms of matter:

• gas

• liquid

• solid
The fourth form of matter – Plasma

• can only be achieved by adding energy

• a plasma state of matter also generates free
electrons and ionized atoms.

Plasma is the state of matter similar to gas
in which a certain portion of particles are
ionized. The plasmaNorm system induces
the state in plasma cells by introducing
an electromagnetic eld to gas. Gas particles
inside the system then become highly charged
and react with the organic molecules created
from cooking to convert them into oxygen and

carbon dioxide.

1. Filtration – through the standard stainless steel grease lter.

2. Plasma – odour molecules undergo a cold combustion process by reacting

with plasma. These molecules are oxidized and then decomposed into
oxygen, carbon dioxide and water molecules.

3. Activated Carbon – resultant molecules then pass through

activated carbon ltration. The plasma effect triggers a
charcoal regenerating reaction resulting in a prolonged

lifecycle of the lter for up to 5 years.

Ground breaking technology

plasmaNorm is the only specialist provider of air solutions that guarantees to remove odours

permanently. The revolutionary plasmaNorm lter contains atmospheric, normal-pressure plasma.
It clears the air of cooking odours, solvents and ne particles, with built-in air sterilization. As a
lter of intake, ambient or exhaust air, plasmaNorm has undergone long-term, real-life operational

testing in the catering and food industries.

How plasmaNorm works

Particles and dust are pre-ltered; the pollutant gases subsequently oxidise through
‘cold combustion’ in atmospheric, normal-pressure plasma. Odour molecules are decomposed
at the molecular level. Non-combusted compounds become caught in an activated carbon

storage system. The activated carbon, located downstream, acts as a storage reactor that

continually regenerates itself by means of plasma ow and, for example, converts ozone back

into atmospheric oxygen.

The benets to everyone

Now for people living in apartments that cannot exhaust the kitchen odours effectively or have
a recirculating rangehood that does not clear the air and are left with unpleasant odours, the

plasma unit offers a positive solution. Residences that are classied by the national trust, state

or local council regulations can put a effective rangehood that will allow them to enjoy all the

different cuisines offered today. Large apartments with difcult body corporate’s now can avoid

the arguments and delays that most experience.
