48 trillion OH radicals are released every second! Panasonic's new humidifying air purifier that quickly removes pollen, aging odors, and allergens
100x awesome.
Panasonic today announced the new F-VXU90 humidifying air purifier. This sounds amazing.
What is nanoe?
Panasonic is famous for its "nanoe" technology that suppresses pollen, allergens, and odor-causing fine particles. A simple explanation of nanoe is that molecules called OH radicals, which are oxygen-hydrogen bonds, are confined in 20 nm microparticles. These OH radicals deprive various bacteria of hydrogen and become water, and the bacteria deprived of hydrogen die.
NanoE is a technology announced in 2003. At that time, 480 billion OH radicals were generated every second. With the next technology, "Nanoe-X", it will be 4,080,000 per second, and with the new nanoe-X, the amount of OH radicals will be 48 trillion per second! What a 100 times increase. OH radicals are very short-lived, but if this amount is released every second, we can expect a considerable increase in effectiveness.
As for how much performance has been improved, for example, cedar pollen suppression time is suppressed to 99% in about 3 hours. It took about 24 hours with nanoe X, so it's about 1/8 faster.
It is also possible to suppress it to 92.6% in 1 hour. If you use it when "the house looks like pollen", it will be refreshing in about an hour.
It is effective not only for pollen, but also for suppressing allergens that cause various allergies, odors such as aging odors, and mold. Both can be suppressed in about 1/8 to 1/4 of the conventional time.
"F-VXU90" combines speed and power
The "F-VXU90" is not only equipped with this new nanoe X technology, but also has a "3D flow pollen repelling airflow" function. also installed. Pollen can be effectively collected by generating three-dimensional air currents and circulating them throughout the room.
In addition, it is also possible to see the air condition in the room with the smartphone app "Mil Air". You can check the degree of air pollution and the percentage of clean air, and you can set the operation according to the conditions of the room.
The air cleaning capacity is about 40 tatami mats. When using the humidification function, it supports up to 35 tatami mats.
Released September 21st. The expected market price is around 107,000 yen.
I mostly close the windows in my room, and I have hay fever, but I've never used an air purifier... But in this day and age, I feel like I should pay more attention to the air in my room. OK, let's consider it!
