1 The digital reference standards indicated in this

technology mark mean: when a humidifying air
purifier with a high concentration Plasmacluster Ion
Generation Unit is placed next to the wall and runs
in the "middle" mode, the measured amount of the
ions blow out in 1 cm3 air near (1.2 meter away)
from the center of the room within an applicable
area.

This product carries the unit with this function.

EFFECTS OF PLASMACLUSTER

What is "Plasmacluster" technology?

Plasmacluster is SHARP's unique technology.
Plasmacluster Generating Unit generates and emits
the same positive and negative ions that occur in
nature by applying high voltage and a larger number
of electrical discharges. Since the positive and
negative ions generated are surrounded by water
molecules, they can survive for extended periods.

Inhibition of Static Electricity

※

The positive and negative Ions can suppress the
generation of static electricity and reduce the friction
of hair, keeping your hair in a healthy and strong
condition.

Hair Moisturization

The Plasmacluster Ion are surrounded by
water molecules to form protective layer of
water molecules on the surface of the hair,
deeply infiltrate and moisturize your hair.

※ All the test results are provided by SHARP.

The effects may vary with the seasons, surrounding environment (temperature, humidity, wind flow, etc.),
time of use and personal status.

Effect for the color-treated hair

※

Plasmacluster prevents a damage from the brushing of the color-treated
hair, the split hair, the hair breakage, the color fading of coloring.

The 75°C warm wind (at TURBO) can gently blow dry
your hair.

The 50°C soft wind can gently blow dry your scalp.
(Recommended when the hair is semi-dry.)

Repeatedly switching between the WARM and COLD
modes can protect your stratum corneum.
You can get a better effect by blowing from the top of the
