1. Getting to know your device
Humans spend a large proportion of their time indoors. The air indoors is often polluted with dust particles,
pollen, animal hair, odours, harmful gases as well as various bacteria and viruses. The LR 300 air cleaner
cleans the ambient air using a three-layered filter system and an in-built UV-C light.
The LR 300 air cleaner
•
Filters air with a combi filter (activated carbon filter against harmful gases and unpleasant odours,
HEPA filterE 12
against particles such as bacteria, viruses, mites, pollen and fine dust)
•
Has an in-built UV-C light (to kill germs)
•
Operates quietly with three output levels
•
Has a timer function (two, four or eight hours)
•
Suitable for rooms up to 35 m² in size
•
Energy-saving
•
Switches o automatically when the housing cover is removed.
Principle of air cleaning
1. The air cleaner's fan sucks in the contaminated air.
2. The pre-filter filters larger particles such as dust, dirt and hairs.
3. Next, the activated carbon filter filters formaldehyde, benzene and other poisonous gases and odours out
of the ambient air.
4. Lastly, the HEPA filter filters out small particles such as pollen, bacteria or viruses.
5. The switchable UV-C light inside the housing
eliminates germs and odours (caused by animals, cooking or
tobacco smoke).
6. The cleaned air is emitted into the ambient air via the air outlet on top of the air cleaner.
The HEPA E 12 filter has a filter performance of ≥ 99.5%. That means that 99.5% of particles (e.g.bacteria,
viruses and fine dust) can be filtered out.
14
Contaminated, unfiltered air can have the following eects:
•
Infections and respiratory diseases are more likely to occur
•
Damage to health through harmful gases
