Air purifier KA-520 in schools

Winter is approaching and regular ventilation in the classroom is becoming increasingly difficult. Since permanent ventilation is not sensible in the cold season, the researchers come to the conclusion that highly efficient air purifiers are used in classrooms. Ventilation over a period of 3 - 5 minutes is by no means sufficient and only has an effect if the temperature difference between inside and outside is as large as possible and it is correspondingly windy.

Air purifiers work on the principle of a vacuum cleaner. They suck in the air in the room and filter out everything that pollutes the air. These can be allergens, bacteria and viruses. These remain thanks to the Class H14 HEPA filters inside the case. Set up in the corner of a classroom, an air cleaner circulates the room air several times an hour according to its operating level, which makes a significantly positive contribution to the cleanliness of the room air.

What advantages air purifiers have for schools and, above all, what protection they offer: you will find all of this in a compact summary on this page.

This is how the KA-520 air purifier was developed

From OR device to mobile air purifier - this is how the development of the KA-520 air purifier can be summarized. Because that's what we dealt with at the beginning of 2020: an air conditioner that meets the highest hygiene requirements in operating theaters. We were almost done when the coronavirus took hold of the world. While the direct transmission routes were initially the focus of the public and also the scientific discussion, we were already able to deal with aerosol transmission, or rather, its control. Because the adaptation from the clean room operating theater device to the mobile air purifier was not far for us.

It should be easy to use with a good price-performance ratio and fit into our company philosophy of offering low-noise air conditioning and ventilation technology. It is robust, which is also typical for a Kampmann device. In development, we were driven by our own standards as climate specialists and thus our responsibility to society. We believe in the advantages of technological progress and, with the knowledge of science and parallel studies of our KA-520 air purifier, we are convinced that we can make a decisive contribution to curbing the occurrence of infections.
