1.4 CLASSIFICATION
Type of protection against electric shocks
Class I
Earthing for all accessible metallic elements and internal metallic elements.
Level of protection of applied parts against
electric shocks
No applied parts
Degree of protection against water and solids
IP 40
Operating mode
Continuous service
Operation under normal conditions of an unlimited duration without
exceeding operating temperature limits.
Level of safety when used in the presence of
flammable anaesthetics mixed with air,
oxygen or nitrous oxide
Device not suitable for use withflammable anaesthetics mixed with air,
oxygen, or nitrous oxide.
HEPA³Air is not an AP or APG category medical device. It should always be
kept more than 25 cm away from a source of flammable anaesthetics mixed
with air, oxygen, or nitrous oxide. The user is therefore responsible for
positioning HEPA³Air accordingly in the room to be treated.
Electromagnetic interference
EN 61326-1 class B standard for conducted and radiated
disturbances.
HEPA³Air is suitable for operation in an environment consisting of devices
which respect equivalent criteria.

1.6 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
1.6.1 INTENDED USE
The Oxidising Agents HEPA³Air is a highly performant mobile air filtration unit. It is dedicated to the
removal of microorganisms and particles. It is generally positioned in moderate risk areas such as
corridors, airlocks and to protect installations while work is being carried out, for example. It significantly
reduces contamination and may constitute an initial air purification stage before air is directed to a higher
risk area.
1.6.2 OPERATING PRINCIPLES
HEPA³Air sucks in, treats and recirculates the air in the room. It quickly abates ambient contamination
and maintains it at a low level, thus preventing the risk of hospital-acquired infection.
Its important air recycling rate, 10 to 20 folds the room volume per hour, enables a quick abatement of
the average contamination level through dilution process. Typically, a pollution peak generated by a door
opening is reduced by 90% in less than 10 minutes.
