FEATURES
Plasmacluster technology uses plas-
ma discharge to produce and release
the same positive and negative ions
as those found in nature ("Plasma-
cluster ions").
This is a unique air cleaning technolo-
gy of the SHARP CORPORATION for
breaking down and inactivating such
potential allergens as the fecal matter
or corpses of aerial mites*1, viruses *2
and mould and bacteria *3suspended
in the air, and has been substantiated
by third-party organisations both in
Japan and overseas.
When there is a high density of Plas-
macluster ions in the air, the smell of
cigarette smoke trapped in curtains
or sofas is removed in about 80 min-
utes*4, and when clothing is hung in
a place exposed to the direct air ex-
pelled from the unit generating Plas-
macluster ions, the smell of sweat is
reduced to a virtually imperceptible
level in one night (about 6 hours).
