MINIMUM 500 CFM
FN1AAF005000
The Carrier OptiClean negative air machine is a portable, minimum 500 CFM solution primarily designed to help convert normal hospital rooms into airborne infectious (AII) rooms. Designed to ASHRAE’s Standard 170 for Ventilation of Health Care Facilities, the Carrier OptiClean uses highly efficient filters and a heavy duty, yet quiet, motor to remove contaminated air from the room. The resulting negative air pressure, or “vacuum effect” helps limit the spread of air-based contaminants into surrounding areas. If negative pressure is not required, such as in an open-air, temporary hospital, the machine can be used as an air “scrubber,” pulling air in, removing many contaminants, and discharging cleaner air back into the room.
