The Carrier OptiClean negative air machine is a portable, minimum 500 CFM solution primarily designed to help convert normal hospital rooms into airborne infectious isolation rooms (AIIR). Designed to comply with ASHRAE’s Standard 170 for Ventilation of Health Care Facilities, the Carrier OptiClean uses a 99.97% efficient filter and a heavy duty, yet quiet, motor to remove filtered contaminated air from the room. The resulting negative air pressure, or “vacuum effect,” helps limit the spread of airborne contaminants into surrounding areas. If negative pressure is not required, such as an open-air, temporary hospital, the machine can be used as an air “scrubber,” pulling air in, removing many contaminants, and discharging cleaner air back into the space.
Pre-Installed Filters The Carrier OptiClean™ unit ships with two filters pre-installed for your convenience: a minimum MERV 7 pre-filter and a HEPA filter – The minimum MERV 7 pre-filter recommended replacement is 60-90 days and is available to order through Totaline®* – The long-life HEPA filter provides approximately 40,000 hours of operation, or four years, under normal operation and maintenance* * Applies to negative air machine applications only. Filter life in air scrubber applications would be reduced.
Multi-Function Control Panel On/Off Switch – A green on/off switch illuminates when the unit is on and operating Filter Alert – A red light illuminates when it is time to check and/or replace one or both of the unit’s filters Pressure Indicator – Compares room/ambient pressure versus internal pressure on the back side of the HEPA filter. Sets off the red indicator light when the filters are dirty Three-Speed Selector Switch – Allows for low-medium-high air flow ranges Additional Features Locking casters and round or oval duct transition assembly are shipped with every unit (assembly required) Optional Air Diffuser Kit, sold separately, helps redirect air flow and reduces sound levels up to two decibels (air scrubber applications only) Product Highlights Standard MERV 7 or higher pre-filter HEPA filter rack and sealing design meet air leakage requirement Vertical design for smaller footprint compared to many competitors Portable and adaptable to nearly any appropriately-sized location Heavy-duty, lockable casters for easy transport Red filter indicator light alerts user when it’s time to replace a filter Green on/off switch illuminates when the unit is on and operating Ten-foot long power cord with strain relief Exhaust transition to standard 10" round duct included Galvanized steel, pre-painted cabinet is fully insulated 115V UL® listed Cabinet dimensions: 21-1/8” W x 22-1/16” D x 53-7/16” H One-year limited warranty Prop 65 Warning: this product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer.
