Lab-Air electronic air purifier, Model 5.6, 110V
A system which complies with OSHA Regulations and minimises Occupational Exposure To Toxic Vapours. The System that destroys the odours and fumes and doesn't just mask them. Toxic vapours are reduced as well.
Lab-Air Units are designed to eliminate harmful fumes and annoying odours from the laboratory workplace.
How they work
Electronic Air Purifiers produce a controlled level of Ozone electrically by converting molecules of Oxygen (O2) into molecules of Ozone (O3). Ozone, sometimes called activated oxygen, as part of the process of returning to oxygen, casts off its extra atom. That extra atom combines with the molecule of the odours source and thereby destroys the odour by oxidation. Once Ozone's extra atom is consumed fresh air is left behind which was created by a natural process.
Lab-Air Units produce a safe unsaturated level of activated oxygen that neutralises harmful fumes and eliminates problem odours from organic materials as well as some commonly used chemicals such as: Formaldehyde, Xylene, Toluene, Glutaraldehyde, Alcohol, Acetone.
Example:
HCHO + O3 =HCOOH + O2
Formaldehyde + Ozone = Formic Acid + Oxygen
HCOOH + O3= CO2 + H2O + O2

What is the best location for our LAB-AIR* System ?
Histology/Pathology/EM Labs - There are common odours and toxic vapours which are generated by fixing fluids, staining and embedding materials, autopsy samples, body odours, remains of dead animals and fumes which can exceed the capacity of the fume hood. In these cases these fumes may spread to other areas of the building.
Other Labs with Odours - There are other locations within the hospital or research lab where people are using chemicals such as xylene, glutaraldehyde, formaldehyde, etc. where the LAB-AIR* SYSTEM would be very beneficial.
Animal Necropsy - These are odours and fumes associated with the remains of dead animals. These odours can spread, especially in the warmer months, throughout an entire building. The LAB-AIR SYSTEM eliminates this totally.
Lab-Air's Electronic Air Purifiers are CSA approved and come with a two year warranty.
