Description
The Antari AirGuard AG1500 is a portable, convenient, and highly functional Disinfection Fog Machine. The AG1500 converts the FLD05 disinfectant fluid (sold separately) into a fog or vapour to fill an entire space in any direction with incredible ease. Once the disinfectant fog settles (around 5 – 10 minutes) it leaves a thin layer on the surface of objects in the room to inhibit bacteria growth and kill most fungi, germs, virus, dust mites and it can also get rid of bad odours.
The AirGuard AG1500 can be used as a regular disinfectant maintenance solution suitable for larger areas, such as school halls, large offices, theatres, department stores, plazas, airports, gymnasiums and libraries just to name a few).
The AG1500 features a high output upshot blast to spread fog and fill a room very quickly.
The six built-in duration settings of 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 seconds are accessed via the AG1500’s on-board Digital Control Interface allowing users to set output times based on the target area size. It can also be set to continuous duration.
The included Wireless Remote Control conveniently allows the user to activate and deactivate the AG20 from a distance of up to 50m.
The AG1500 has two output modes, normal and high. In High output mode, AG1500 can produce one cubic metre of smoke in 0.75 seconds. To work out how long you need to operate AirGuard for, first find out the volume of the room, then multiply by 0.75 to get the time required in seconds. For example, if the room is 25 square metres with a 4m ceiling (for a volume of 100 cubic meters), it will take the AG1500 approximately 75 seconds to fill the room.
After the AG1500 has sprayed the FLD05 disinfectant fog, allow 5 to 10 minutes for the fog to circulate and cover the space in order to disinfect.
Periodically sanitizing an area with the Antari Airguard AG1500 Disinfection Fog Machine and FLD05 Disinfection Fluid to kill germs and viruses provides an additional layer of protection to complete a holistic approach to hygiene and sanitisation.
What is the active ingredient in FLD for sterilisation?
Umbelliferol, which is an effective antibacterial agent approved by the Taiwan Ministry of Health and Welfare. It has good sterilisation ability and can kill a variety of bacteria, yeast, fungi and viruses. It can also inhibit oxidation.
Is the disinfection ingredient harmful to humans?
Umbelliferol is safe, the ratio of disinfection ingredients used is within the guidelines set by the Taiwan Ministry of Health and Welfare.
How does the FLD05 Disinfectant work?
The FLD05 disinfectant works by denaturing the virus’ proteins, which makes it incapable of binding to human cells. It is effective against the influenza virus and general pneumonia.
It has not been tested against the COVID-19 virus, as it is regulated by the government and no samples are available to test.
What is the fragrance of FLD05?
FLD05 has a menthol and fruity fragrance.
How long can FLD05 be stored?
FLD05 has a shelf life of 5 years and should be stored in a cool area out of direct sunlight. Once opened, it should be used within 6 months.
How much smoke is required and how long does it take?
The AG1500 has two output modes, normal and high. In High output mode, AG1500 can produce one cubic metre of smoke in 0.75 seconds. To work out how long you need to operate AirGuard for, first find out the volume of the room, then multiply by 0.75 to get the time required in seconds. For example, if the room is 25 square metres with a 4m ceiling (for a volume of 100 cubic meters), it will take the AG1500 approximately 75 seconds to fill the room.
After the AG1500 has sprayed the FLD05 disinfectant fog, allow 5 to 10 minutes for the fog to circulate and cover the space in order to disinfect.
How long does the effect last?
This depends on the environmental conditions, such as ventilation and number of human movements. For example, disinfection in a car for personal use can be effective for 2 weeks, however a car used frequently for business should be disinfected each day. In general the more occupied a location or area is, the more frequently it should be disinfected.
Note: The Antari AirGuard AG1500 Disinfection Machine itself has no sterilisation function. The FLD05 liquid provides the sterilisation function. The sterilisation provided by smoke machines is completely different from ozone machines or air cleaners.
Note: The AG1500 may not be in stock at the time of purchase and lead times of around 4-8 weeks may apply.
