Studies confirm commercial air filters reduce the spread of airborne viruses. When a person sneezes, coughs, or speaks, tiny airborne droplets that could contain viruses not only travel many feet but can spread through the HVAC system to all areas inside buildings.

a portable air filtration system

To provide an additional layer of protection against viruses, American Air Filter, Co. Inc., and its subsidiary Flanders Corp (AAF Flanders), a subsidiary of Daikin Industries, developed AstroPure™ a portable air filtration system. 

AstroPure works by increasing air-recirculation rates within a given space effectively cleaning the air every time it passes through the 2-stage advanced filtration system. The system uses a high-capacity MERV 11 pre-filter and the most robust dual-layer eFRM media HEPA filter which not only reduces the cost of replacement filters but produces a safer environment for staff and customers of medical offices, restaurants, schools, and retail space.

advanced sensor technology

The stand-alone AstroPure unit can be simply plugged in to suit many different applications without requiring installation.

Equipped with advanced sensor technology and an easily programmable HMI, the AstroPure allows the user to optimize air circulations rates at the lowest energy cost and noise level. The quiet, energy-efficient AstroPure unit has easy-to-use controls providing indoor air quality on-demand.
