For air purification, the XJ-2 is a quiet medical-grade room HEPA air cleaner that is suitable for airborne infection isolation rooms (AIIR), hospitals, medical facilities, extended-care facilities, nursing homes and institutional use. This portable unit is also a great unit for asthma patient rooms. The XJ-2 air filtration system is independently lab tested and certified as a whole air cleaner to a minimum of 99.97% efficiency. This is especially important as simply installing a HEPA air filter into an air cleaner cabinet can not guarantee HEPA performance as penetrations into the air cleaner cabinet, leaks around doors and the integrity of the HEPA seal itself must all be taken into consideration and tested to guarantee performance. Replacement filters and parts for the XJ-2 are also available. Make sure to ask whether the air cleaner was HEPA tested as a whole before purchasing!
The XJ-2 Negative Pressure HEPA unit provides isolation capability in urgent circumstances. This highly portable self-contained model is designed to minimize floor space utilization, be adaptable to other enhanced air filtration needs with the optional recirculation plenum and can be utilized in special positive pressure applications. The adaptable XJ-2, is a rugged functional workhorse, providing the essential airflow and pressure differential needed for tough duty. The XJ-2 with its HEPA filtration, most commonly recommended by health authorities, is an excellent candidate for healthcare, office, and school applications.
Looking for more information on AIIRs? ASHRAE standard 170-2017 goes into detail about ventilation in healthcare facilities. This online document can be accessed at techstreet.com and includes the following:
“Information about Airborne Infection Isolation Rooms (AIIRs):
- AIIRs are single-patient rooms at negative pressure relative to the surrounding areas, and with a minimum of 6 air changes per hour (12 air changes per hour are recommended for new construction or renovation).
- Air from these rooms should be exhausted directly to the outside or be filtered through a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter directly before recirculation.
- Room doors should be kept closed except when entering or leaving the room, and entry and exit should be minimized.
- Facilities should monitor and document the proper negative-pressure function of these rooms.”
