\"\"<\/a>Finally some good news: the HEPA high performance filters of class H 14 have arrived and are finally available. Equipped with these filters, all professional air purifiers of the TAC series become one of the sharpest weapons against SARS-CoV-2. The high-performance filters separate particles down to a size of 0.1 to 0.2 \u00b5m – against which the corona virus with its size of 0.12 to 0.16 \u00b5m has no chance! This is especially true since this virus does not float through the air by itself, but as a significantly larger droplet aerosol.<\/h2>\n

Virus strains such as the dreaded SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV or the new, recently occurring coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, are similar in size. Current studies have determined the particle size of the coronavirus to be 0.12 to 0.16 \u00b5m. This makes the viruses virtually easy prey for a HEPA filter with a class H14 certification: This is because at a particle size of 0.1 to 0.2 \u00b5m, these filters have an enormously high filtration rate of 99.995 %. And it is important to note: The coronavirus, too, just doesn\u2019t fly about the room by itself, but is released through coughing or sneezing as a so-called ‘aerosol\u2019. This kind of aerosol is composed of a mixture of solid and liquid suspended particles, gases and water vapour.<\/p>\n

The use of a TAC air purifier<\/strong><\/a> with H14-particulate filter<\/a><\/strong> reduces the health risk of contracting a pathogen through the air in the room to almost zero. This is because the H14-HEPA high performance filter\u2019s filter efficiency of 99.995 % means a degree of permeability of only 0.005 %, which means that: out of 100,000 microparticles suspended in the air, a TAC air purifier with H14 filtration effectively filters out 99,995 particles!<\/p>\n

Thanks to these first-class filter properties, H14 high-performance filters are used, for example, in operating theatres for clean air production and in comparably hygiene-sensitive areas. Starting today, the H14 filter class is also available in our TACprofessional air cleaners as an accessory for these TAC series<\/strong><\/a> devices (for use in the H13 particulate filter compartment):<\/p>\n
