R FU-W28J AIR PURIFIER OPERATION MANUAL ENGLISH Plasmacluster is a trademark of Sharp Corporation. Free standing type FU-W28J.eng.indd 1 09.10.
Please read before operating your new Air Purifier The air purifier draws in room air via its air intake, letting the air pass through an Active Carbon Filter (deodorisation filter) and a HEPA Filter (dust collection filter) inside the unit, then discharges the air from its air outlet. The air purifier unit repeats this process continuously when its internal fan is working. As air passes through the HEPA filter it removes 99.97% of dust particles (as small as 0.3 microns).
ENGLISH "Plasmacluster" technology Plasmacluster technology uses plasma discharge to produce and release the same positive and negative ions as those found in nature ("Plasmacluster ions"). This is a unique air cleaning technology of the SHARP CORPORATION for breaking down and inactivating such potential allergens as the faecal matter or corpses of aerial mites*1, viruses* 2 and mould and bacteria* 3 suspended in the air, and has been substantiated by third-party organisations both in Japan and overseas.
