In the wake of recent global events, indoor air quality (IAQ) has become a top priority for businesses and building managers across industries. This is especially true for large, open spaces such as gymnasiums, conference halls, and auditoriums, where ensuring adequate ventilation and air purification can be particularly challenging.
Traditional HVAC systems often fall short of effectively cleaning the air in these expansive environments, leaving occupants susceptible to airborne pollutants and potential health risks.
Fortunately, advancements in air purification technology offer promising solutions. High-volume air purifiers, like the AirBox Stratus, are specifically designed to tackle the unique challenges of maintaining clean air in large commercial settings. These powerful systems work independently or alongside existing HVAC infrastructure to provide superior air filtration and circulation, creating a healthier and more comfortable environment for everyone.
Engineered for Excellence: Stratus Technical Specifications and Performance
At AirBox, we understand the critical need for powerful and efficient air purification solutions in large commercial spaces. That’s why we engineered the Stratus as a built in high volume purification unit with cutting-edge technology and meticulous attention to detail.
Here’s a closer look at the key features that make the Stratus High Volume Air Purifier a leader in its class:
Unmatched Airflow: The Stratus boasts an impressive 4,850 CFM airflow rate, ensuring rapid and thorough air circulation throughout expansive areas. This high-capacity air exchange effectively dilutes airborne contaminants and improves overall indoor air quality.
Comprehensive Filtration: Our commitment to clean air is reflected in the Stratus’s advanced three-stage filtration system. We begin with an activated carbon filter to eliminate odors and VOCs, followed by a MERV-9 antimicrobial filter to capture larger particles. Finally, a HEPA filter ensures the removal of 99.99% of airborne particulate matter, including allergens, bacteria, and viruses.
Energy-Conscious Design: Recognizing the importance of sustainability, we equipped the Stratus with an energy-efficient ECM motor and intelligent controls. This allows for optimized performance while minimizing power consumption, reducing operational costs and environmental impact.
Quiet Performance: We understand that a peaceful environment is essential for any commercial space. The Stratus is designed with sound attenuation in mind, operating discreetly without causing disruption.
Validated Performance: We stand behind the quality and performance of our products. The Stratus undergoes rigorous testing using calibrated industry equipment to ensure it meets and exceeds expectations for airflow, filtration efficiency, and energy consumption.
Our new high volume air purifiers are a testament to AirBox’s dedication to providing superior air purification solutions for large commercial spaces. With its powerful performance and innovative features, the Stratus offers peace of mind and promotes a healthier environment for building occupants and visitors alike.
Intelligent Control: The Smart Fleet Management System
At AirBox, we believe that managing indoor air quality should be effortless and intuitive. That’s why we developed the Smart Fleet Management System, a comprehensive platform that provides unparalleled control and monitoring capabilities for our air purifiers.
Here’s how the Smart Fleet System empowers you to optimize air quality in your facility:
- Remote Monitoring and Control: Access real-time data and adjust settings for your Stratus units from anywhere, at any time, through our user-friendly online dashboard. Monitor air quality parameters, track filter life, and adjust fan speeds remotely, ensuring optimal performance and convenience.
- Customizable Scheduling: Create tailored schedules to align air purifier operation with occupancy patterns and specific needs of your facility. Set automated on/off times, adjust fan speeds for different periods, and optimize energy usage by only running the units when necessary.
- Proactive Maintenance: Eliminate the guesswork of filter replacement. The Smart Fleet System tracks filter life based on actual usage and sends timely alerts when it’s time for a change. This ensures peak performance and prevents potential airflow restrictions due to clogged filters.
- Seamless Integration: For facilities with Building Management Systems (BMS), the Smart Fleet platform offers seamless integration capabilities. This allows for centralized control and monitoring of your air purifiers alongside other building systems, streamlining operations and enhancing overall efficiency.
The AirBox Smart Fleet Management System empowers you to take control of your indoor air quality with ease and precision. Its intuitive interface, remote access, and automated features provide unmatched convenience and ensure that your air purifiers are always operating at peak performance.
Seamless Integration: Installation and HVAC Compatibility
The Stratus is designed for straightforward installation and seamless integration with existing HVAC systems. We understand the importance of a hassle-free process for HVAC professionals, so we’ve ensured that the Stratus is adaptable and easy to implement in various commercial settings.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Mounting Options: The Stratus is designed for ceiling mounting, attaching securely to rafters or beams using threaded rods. Its lightweight design (approximately 500 pounds with filters) simplifies the installation process while maintaining structural integrity.
- Ductwork Considerations: The Stratus utilizes a dedicated ductwork configuration separate from the existing HVAC system. This allows for independent air circulation and ensures that the purified air is effectively distributed throughout the intended space. Our team can provide guidance on optimal ductwork design and diffuser placement for maximum efficiency.
- Electrical Requirements: The Stratus requires a standard electrical connection for power supply. Its energy-efficient design minimizes power consumption, making it a cost-effective solution for maintaining clean air in your facility.
- Complementary Operation: The Stratus works in harmony with existing HVAC systems to improve overall indoor air quality. While the HVAC system handles ventilation and temperature control, the Stratus focuses on air purification through recirculation and filtration. This combined approach ensures a comprehensive solution for maintaining a healthy and comfortable indoor environment.
ASHRAE Standards Compliance: The Stratus is designed to assist facilities in meeting ASHRAE standards, particularly Standard 62.1 for ventilation and indoor air quality. By effectively cleaning and recirculating indoor air, the Stratus reduces the demand for outside air ventilation, leading to energy savings and improved cost efficiency.
The Stratus offers a streamlined installation process and compatibility with existing HVAC systems, making it a valuable addition to any commercial building seeking to enhance indoor air quality.
