OxyPure® Test and Performance Data
Here at NuWave, we want you to make the most informed decision possible.
That is why we are sharing all of our test and performance data for the OxyPure®.
Air Purifier Efficiency Test - Pathogens
Intertek Testing Services
The test focused on the removal rates for airborne pathogens, specifically the H3N2 Influenza virus (99.96%)
Air Purifier Efficiency Test - Escherichia Coli
Intertek Testing Services
This test focused on the removal rate for the following: E. coli bacteria (99.99%), Staphylococcus Albus bacteria (99.99%), Staphylococcus Aureus bacteria (99.99%), and Aspergillus Niger bacteria (99.99%). Intertek found that after 2 hours, the OxyPure® removed an average of 99.99% of the pathogen.
Air Purifier Efficiency Test - Smoke, Dust, And Pollen
Intertek Testing Services
Using Tobacco Smoke (particle size: 0.10 – 1.0 microns), AC Fine Test Dust (particle size: 0.5 – 3.0 microns), and Paper Mulberry Pollen (particle size: 5 – 11 microns), the tests showed an average Clean Air Delivery Rate (FT3/Min) of 354.9 for Smoke, 332.8 for Dust, and 362.6 for Pollen.
Air Purifier Efficiency Test – Anions
Intertek Testing Services
In addition to producing no ozone, the OxyPure® also produces no extraneous negative ions (anions). The Bio-Guard Filter creates anions as part of its normal function. However, like the pathogens and particles trapped by the Bio-Guard Filter, the anions it generates also remain in the filter.
Air Purifier Efficiency Test – CADR For Smoke, Dust, And Pollen
Intertek Testing Services
Intertek Labs tests are based on the Clean Air Delivery Rates (F3/Min.) for Tobacco Smoke (particle size: 0.10 – 1.0 microns), AC Fine Test Dust (particle size: 0.5 – 3.0 microns), and Paper Mulberry Pollen (particle size: 5 – 11 microns), the tests showed an average Clean Air Delivery Rate (FT3/Min) of 354.9 for Smoke, 332.8 for Dust, and 362.6 for Pollen.
Air Purifier Efficiency Test - Formaldehyde
Intertek Testing Services
Intertek tested the OxyPure®’s formaldehyde removal rate. The test shows that at 110 minutes, the removal rate is 95.1%!
Air Purifier Efficiency Test - Ozone Emission
Intertek Testing Services
Ground level ozone concentrations (measured in parts per billion or ppb) varies depending on where you live. You can live in places where it is fairly low, like Oahu in Hawaii, which averages 49ppb1; or in places like Chicago, which averages 72ppb2. The national average hovers around 70ppb3, which is also the current EPA standard. The CARB-Certified OxyPure®’s Ozone filter drops the ozone concentration in your home to 1ppb, 70 times lower than current EPA limits and well below the ozone concentration you would find outside anywhere in the U.S.
