Plasmacluster Technology
Asthma and allergy sufferers understand the importance of clean
air. Animal dander, pollen and many other airborne contaminants
cause and exacerbate allergies, particularly in the home. With
more of our time spent indoors, reducing these substances from
the air around us is important because they can impact upon our
wellbeing. Sharp’s Air Purifiers use Plasmacluster technology to
help inactivate harmful airborne substances and make our living
environment cleaner and healthier.
Sharp’s range of Plasmacluster Air Purifiers help to provide a quick
and powerful cleansing effect for an entire room, by removing or
deactivating a range of airborne allergens and other substances
providing clean, safe air quality in the home.
GLP* compliant test facilities have gathered safety data on Sharp’s
Plasmacluster technology after testing for;
– Skin irritation/corrosion
– Eye irritation/corrosion
– Inhalation toxicity (lung tissue genetic impact assessment)
* Tested by: Mitsubishi Chemical Safety Institute GLP (Good Laboratory Practice)
is a system of management controls for test facilities and test procedures designed
to ensure the reliability of chemical safety assessment tests.
The effectiveness of Plasmacluster Ions is being proven worldwide
Proven at 24 Institutions in Japan and around the world. Validation data for Plasmacluster Ion generating
devices have been gathered by the institutions referred to below*.
* Tests conducted in laboratory conditions using various Plasmacluster Ion densities of up to 50,000 ions/cm³.
Sharp Air Purifiers contain a Plasmacluster Ion generator that releases positive and negative ions into the
air. The Plasmacluster Ions diffuse through the room, surrounding airborne allergens, bacteria, mould and
viruses, converting hydrogen molecules in their surface proteins into water.

1. Release Plasmacluster Ions
Plasmacluster Ions are similar to positive
and negative ions found in nature. The
ions are surrounded by water molecules
and are released into the air.
2. Attack suspended airborne microbes
The ions form hydroxide (OH) radicals that are highly oxidising
when they adhere to the surface of airborne microbes like
suspended allergens, bacteria, mould and viruses. They remove
hydrogen from the surface proteins, breaking them down.
3. Return to the air as water
The hydroxide (OH) radicals combine
with hydrogen (H) to form water (H2O)
which returns to the air.

by dust mites and in deactivating mould spores that can cause
mildew in the home. Sharp Air Purifiers help to improve the
quality of the air you breathe.
Reduce suspended viruses with positive and
•
negative ions
Plasmacluster Ions break down and remove projecting spike-
shaped proteins of suspended viruses such as influenza,
reducing their effects.

Removal of clinging odours
•
Plasmacluster ions break down and remove odour components
that have seeped into room furnishings.
Removal of Static Electricity
•
Plasmacluster Ions reduce static electricity, preventing
pollen and airborne dust from clinging to curtains, clothing and
other surfaces.
Keep Skin Moisture, Elasticity and Texture
•
Preserve skin moisture as the water molecules that surround
the Plasmacluster Ions adhere to the surface of the skin and
form a water molecule coating. The effectiveness will vary based
on season, temperature, humidity and skin types.
Sharp Air Purifiers have been
tested and approved by The
British Allergy Foundation.
Sharp sales of products incorporating
Plasmacluster Ion Technology has
exceeded 60 Million units worldwide.

KCA50JW / KCA60JWSharp Air Purifiers with Humidifier
KCA50JW / KCA60JW
Combining Air Purification and Humidification is more efficient and
effective as the water particles bind to the Plasmacluster Ions.
With the added benefits of the humidification function, the
KCA50JW and KCA60JW has a temperature and humidity sensor
which automatically detects and adjusts the humidity according to
the changes in room temperature.
The recommended humidity level is between 40% to 60%. When
the humidity is at this level, growth and activation of viruses and
bacteria is reduced. Other benefits include protecting the nose,
throat & skin as well as suppressing mould growth and reducing
the effects for Asthma and Allergy sufferers.
Benefits of Humidification
The ideal humidity level in your home is between 40% and 60%.
When your humidity is too low or too high, you may unintentionally
encourage bacteria, virus, mould and dust mite growth.
When the humidity is at the ideal level, growth and activation is
reduced as well as reducing triggers for Asthma and Allergy
sufferers. Additional benefits include helping to relieve the effects
of a dry throat, eyes and skin.
The rotating filter releases an evenly airflow of superfine mist,
leaving floors dry and surfaces residue-free, making the room
fresher and cleaner.

Rotating humidifying filter
The unit senses the humidity level in the room. When the room
becomes dry the filter rotates, picking up water from the tank and
releasing moisture into the air. When the humidity reaches the
desired level the filter is removed from the water and dried by the
airflow to prevent mould growth.
