Aerosol Suction Unit provides 99.99% air filtration. It has capabilities of filtering
up to 0.3 µmeter. It has plasma ion generator that deactivates and kills the small
microbes and virus and provides clean, sterilized air in the operating area.
So Aerosol Suction Unit is very useful in wake of COVID-19 or SARS COV2
- How this is useful during Covid19 outbreak or novel corona virus SARS CoV2?
The dental practitioners always stay at risk as the infection transfers mainly due to saliva, blood and
other bodily fluids during different dental procedures which requires the use of high speed
handpieces those generate aerosols. Aerosol Suction Unit removes these aerosols to prevent cross-infection
between the doctors and the patients and provides a contamination free & dry air.
- What is the accuracy of Aerosol Suction Unit?
Aerosol Suction Unit provides 99.99% air filtration. It has capabilities of filtering up to 0.3 p meter. It has plasma
ion generator that deactivates and kills the small microbes and virus and provides clean, sterilized air
in the operating area. So Aerosol Suction Unit is very useful in wake of COVID-19 or SARS.
- Why filtering is so important? Only suction is not enough?
Suction of dental aerosol solution is just one part of the system. The clinic has closed environment with
air-condition installed in it. If the aerosol is sucked from one part of the room and left to the other part
the problem still there. That aerosol mist is needed to be filtered before it Ieaves.That is why filtering
plays a vital role in these systems.
- Can Aerosol Suction Unit filter virus?
Aerosol Suction Unit has HEPA 13 filters which filters up to 0.3 p meter. Bacteria & virus of different sizes remains
suspended in the air in droplets of aerosols. These droplets can easily be filtered by Aerosol Suction Unit. Also
these viruses can be destroyed with UV-C light & plasma ion generator to provide clean and
contaminated free air.
- Extra oral suctions were not used before, then why now?
Extra oral suctions were used before also in few clinics, but after breakdown of this novel Covid19
pandemic, this is now a much needed device for dental practitioners, to maintain a clean, hygienic
environment for the patients and themselves, also can perform every dental procedures without any
interference.
- How much space does Aerosol Suction Unit acquire?
Aerosol Suction Unit is a portable device with wheels; it can be floor mount & has dimensions of 325mm x 325mm
x 760mm. It can be easily placed near any dental chair and can be used. It doesn't need any extra space
in a dental clinic.
