Sanyo ABC-VW24 Air Purifier (Virus Washer)

SANYO has developed the ‘Virus Washer System,’ which suppresses airborne viruses using the power of electrolyzed water. This new style of air purification ‘cleans’ the air by ‘washing’ it. Air purifier ABC-VW24 employs the ‘disinfectant electrolyzed mist method,’ which thoroughly purifies room air year-round, by spraying a long-lasting mist of electrolyzed water. Effectively suppresses airborne viruses.

Reducing airborne viruses and allergens such as pollens

• It is said that each of us breathes in approximately 15,000 liters (15m3) of air everyday.
• We thus need a large amount of air everyday, and it would be great indeed if we could disinfect the air itself.

The electrolyzed water technology on which the “virus washer” function is based, is a technology electrolyze tap water containing chloride ions to generate two types of active oxygen, namely hypochlorous acid and OH radicals, which remove viruses. These radicals, when maintained in a very dense state, have a disinfecting effect.

Disinfectant element method

Airborne viruses are reduced by forcing air in a room to pass through an element containing electrolyzed water and circulating the air.

Disinfectant electrolyzed mist method

Electrolyzed water is transformed into an enduring mist and delivered across the room to efficiently remove floating viruses throughout the year.

Disinfectant filter method

The humidifying filter absorbs electrolyzed water stored in the tank. By forcing air to pass through the filter, floating viruses are removed and the air is humidified.
