Design and Function of Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer
As a company that has been in the lighting world for more than 100 years, Osram continues to innovate by developing its UV technology, especially during the Covid 19 pandemic in the last few months, to create an air sterilizer product that is practical, and easy to use. .
At first glance, the Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer has a shape that resembles a Bluetooth speaker. This design was deliberately chosen to provide convenience, both in terms of use and storage. Its main function is to clean the air.
With a size that is not too big, we think it will not be too disturbing. The overall dimensions are only 80 x 80 x 50 mm.
How Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer Works
Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer is an air sterilizer product that uses a photocatalyst technique that works with a UV-A lamp.
In short, this technique works by drawing in air and passing it through a titanium dioxide plate and irradiating it with UV-A. The process then kills harmful bacteria and viruses and produces clean air.
This product is intended for cars, so the distance is not too far, less than 10m2. However, it can also be used effectively in small spaces. Like a meeting room that has a maximum capacity of 2-3 people, or in a house toilet. Moreover, the Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer is not noisy, the sound is less than 30 dB.
The UV-A lamp itself is quite safe when exposed directly to the eyes and skin, in contrast to the UV-C lamp. This product is made to directly kill bacteria and viruses that are absorbed into it. So there is no need to replace the filter, because there is no filtering process.
Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer has also been through lab tests, and the results are proven to be able to kill the H1N1 virus up to 99%. The filter itself is quite easy to maintain, because it can be washed and dried as usual. We recommend doing this once every three months.
This will certainly make it easier for the wearer in terms of maintenance, because the Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer does not use a HEPA filter which requires replacement if it has been used for some time.
The process of using it is quite easy, because we only need to plug in a USB type-C plug, and the Airzing Car UV Air Sterilizer works immediately. Power required 2.5W.
Tips from us to make its use more effective, we can place it in front of the air conditioner, using the magnetic hook.
