Tag: air quality
As soon as winter arrives with its freezing cold weather, discussions start in the office, in the workshop, in schools and in day care centres. Because a high density of people in a room also causes a high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the room air. The question arises again during the cold season: how often should, indeed, must the windows be opened for ventilation? In recent years, the debate about opening cycles has been dominated by the risk of corona infection. And this year, the expensive energy prices are once again intensifying the dispute between the ‘window-closed’ and ‘window-open’ factions. So here is Trotec’s suggestion for pacification: The CO2 Air Quality Monitor BZ26. Finally available!CO₂ Air Quality Monitor BZ26: reliable monitoring of air quality using the ‘CO₂ traffic light’ and acoustic warning signal – can be used as a corona protection measure

With regard to airborne infection with corona viruses, timely ventilation in schools and kindergartens as well as in office and production environments is part of a functioning hygiene concept. But when do we need to ventilate? And how long should windows remain open? Because uncontrolled ventilation leads to a waste of energy and can be quite expensive, it is advisable to keep an eye on the most important air quality parameters for our well-being, such as the CO₂ concentration, the indoor temperature and the relative humidity with the CO₂ air quality monitor BZ26.
NEW Ultrasonic Humidifier B 3 E / B 4 E provides beneficial humidity for a healthy indoor climate and reduces the risk of infection – finally available

Even if the end of winter is in sight, the stoves will still have to rumble on for quite a while. But the longer the heating period lasts, the more unpleasant the dry heating air becomes for our well-being. Irritated eyes, dry skin, respiratory infections or restless sleep are the consequences of insufficient room humidity. And did you know that dry air also prolongs the survival time of corona and flu viruses? It’s good that the 3-in-1 ultrasonic humidifiers B 3 E and B 4 E pleasantly humidify the room air with carbon air filter, UV lamp aroma diffuser and reduce the risk of infection! Even better that they are finally available!
NEW Ultrasonic Humidifier B 3 E / B 4 E: 3-In-1 air humidifier with carbon air filter improves air quality and reduces infection risks

Anyone currently complaining of irritated eyes, dry skin, respiratory infections or even restless sleep, could be suffering from the consequences of insufficient room humidity. Especially in the winter months, dry heating air has a particularly unpleasant effect on our well-being. Incidentally, excessively dry air also prolongs the survival time of corona and flu viruses, because they only do well up to a humidity of 40%. With the 3-in-1 ultrasonic humidifiers B 3 E and B 4 E, the effects of excessively dry air can be solved quickly and permanently – the room air is pleasantly humidified, aromatised and additionally purified.

Rarely has there been so much talk about ‘ventilation’ as in the past and current year. No wonder, since the exchange of air in rooms was and still is considered a tried and tested means against potential corona virus load caused by infectious aerosols. So far, there is no measuring device that is able to prove the contamination of indoor air by SARS-CoV-2. However, it is possible to determine a necessary ventilation interval via the ‘detour’ of a permanent measurement of CO2 values. Because the more people are in living rooms, office spaces, production rooms, schools and daycare centres, the more the exhaled carbon dioxide level increases – to the point of a CO2 alarm: time to open all the windows!
BZ30 CO₂ Air Quality Data Logger: ‘CO₂ traffic light’ and acoustic warning signal indicate when ventilation is needed in cold rooms.

As advised by renowned epidemiologists, consistent ventilation of rooms helps to minimise the risk of corona virus infection. The BZ30 CO₂ air quality data logger, which is finally available again, provides a reliable indication of when it is time to open wide windows and doors in schools and offices. Like a CO₂ traffic light, the device shows the current CO₂ concentration at a glance and thus also demonstrates the potentially increased risk of infection due to a lack of fresh air. It also warns the user with an unmissable acoustic signal.

Increased carbon dioxide concentrations can lead to fatigue, poor concentration and loss of performance. In addition, they are a warning of possibly inadequate ventilation management, which always means a potentially increased risk of infection during corona times. With the BZ25, indoor air quality can be monitored reliably and particularly easily, because the air quality monitor has a symbol display for good, normal or poor carbon dioxide concentration. Ideal for use in offices, living- and children’s -rooms, classrooms, kindergartens and production environments.

With every breath, our lungs fill up with about half a litre of air. However, in the process, it is not just clean air that enters our airways and lungs, but also tiny polluting particles. Starting with the ‘normal’ house dust, mould spores and pollen, to the dreaded fine dust and even more dangerous bacteria and viruses. This is what the AirgoClean® 150 E cleans up and keeps your airways clear – thanks to its unique 3-layer HEPA filter technology, it removes 99.97 % of all airborne pollutants up to 0.3 micrometers in size from the room air.

We spend up to 90 % of our life time in closed rooms. Indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air. This is because allergens and pollutants such as bacteria, viruses, fine dust, mould spores, dust mites, animal scales and odours pollute indoor air. Therefore, it makes sense to always keep an eye on the quality of the air you breathe in and use the smart AirgoClean® 250 E air purifier to fully automatically ensure clean air for healthy breathing.
BZ30 CO₂ air quality data logger – for autonomous long-term logging of carbon dioxide concentration, room temperature and humidity
Posted on by Jochem Weingartz
Pandemic and infection alarms are going off everywhere you look – how often can, should or must classrooms, waiting rooms and meeting rooms be ventilated? An recommendation often heard is about every 20 minutes. But is that really enough? Is that too little ventilation, too much or just right? The BZ30 CO₂ air quality data logger delivers clarity here, because its alarm function warns you if it detects an increased concentration of CO₂. Schools, offices and private households thereby receive an indication of potentially inadequate ventilation management, which brings with it a potentially increased risk of infection.
