  Plasma Filtration (Models 9CQ, 12CQ, 15RLQ, 18RLQ, ASU9RMLQ, ASU12RMLQ, ASU18RMLQ)

Fujitsu ductless air conditioners provide you and your family with “pure air”.

Your family’s health is important to you.  You make sure everyone goes for regular doctor check ups, takes vitamins, eats right and exercises.  You should also be concerned about the air they breathe while inside your home.  No matter how often you clean your home, it is still filled with a variety of airborne irritants such as odors, dust, smoke, pollen and allergens.  Health effects from indoor air pollutants may be experienced soon after exposure or, possibly, years later.

Many of Fujitsu’s wall mounted systems provide innovative solutions for clean, temperature-controlled indoor air.  Halcyon IAQ systems include an electronic plasma filter which removes airborne irritants, odors and allergens.
 


How Does the Plasma Filter Work?
The plasma filter contains a super-charged negative ionization filter, which attach to oxygen molecules to create “charged air” or ozone, and a positive charged electrostatic filter.  The combination ionizes airborne contaminants, neutralizing them to provide clean temperature-controlled air.  Most contaminants which are not destroyed by ionization are trapped by the electrostatic filter.


What is Ozone?

Ozone is an oxygen molecule which contains three oxygen atoms instead of two. Unstable ozone reacts with contaminants to revert back to its stable oxygen state reducing concentrations of ozone quickly.  When ozone contacts something “oxidation-able” the extra oxygen atom releases from the ozone molecule and binds with the contaminant.  What remains is the pure and stable oxygen molecule.  When most contaminants are oxidized some residual ozone may remain but most is collected by the electrostatic and charcoal deodorizing filter.
 


Why is Ozone Used?

Ozone can be used for a broad area of purification. For the biggest part ozone is applied in the municipal water treatment plants for disinfection. In the food industry for example ozone is used for disinfecting packaging and equipment. The main benefit of ozone is its clean character, because it only oxidizes contaminants, with forming byproducts. Ozone can be detected in very low concentrations and therefore, it is generally safe to work with ozone.

Ozone, when used properly, can be very beneficial. 

Electrical sparks which create ozone may occur inside the home in any equipment which uses high voltage or ultraviolet light. Indoor devices that produce ozone include hair dryers, laser printers, copy machines, computers and fax machines. For example, a laser printer can produce around 0.05 ppm ozone or even higher, depending on usage and ventilation.


Ozone in Everyday Life

Drink soda or bottled water today? Ozone is one of the most powerful oxidants available for potable water disinfection. Used in the majority of European and Canadian water plants since the 1940's, due to its oxidation properties, lack of residual, and its taste and odor control abilities when properly applied.  Ozone in bottled water provides disinfection of both the water and the bottle used by Pepsi and Coca-Cola plants.

Use a hair dryer this morning?  Many new hair dryers incorporate ozone technology. Ozone technology aids the fixing of hair dye molecules by helping to bond the color to the hairs structure, thus keeping color treated hair looking vibrant for longer.  It drastically reduces the effect of static electricity on the hair by utilizing Ozone's unique molecular structure. 

Use a hand dryer today?  Yes even the hand dryer that you use in many public restrooms.  It disinfects while it dries your hands. 

Eat farm raised fish today?  Many farm raised fish swim in ozone infused tanks to improve water quality, allow for faster growth rates, decrease death loss, destroys organics while safe for fish.  For example, MinAqua Fish Farm - raises 1.7 million lbs of Talapia per year.  Fish are sold live to markets across the US and Canada.
