I. Introduction to Air‐Q 1100 The Air‐Q 1100 appliance is an air treatment system for interior spaces served by a ducted HVAC air handling system (“HVAC”). The Air‐Q 1100 delivers a fragrance or air treatment agent (“Agents”) into the airflow of the HVAC system either through the central fan unit (CFU) or at suitable locations in the branched ductwork. It is designed for permanent installation on the outside or inside of the CFU. The Air‐Q 1100 is managed by an on‐board computer that is fully programmable for space sizes from 1,000 to 250,000 cubic feet per appliance and one or more intensity levels in the same day. Multiple appliances can work together on the same or multiple CFUs to treat the air in the same spaces served by the HVAC. In this way, there is no limitation on the size of the space that can be served by Air‐Q 1100. Air‐Q 1100 requires little to no maintenance except periodic cleaning for appearance. Installations of Air‐Q 1100 are designed so that the consumption of the consumable Cartridges of Agent (“Cartridges”) requires replacement no more frequently than once a month. Typical Air‐Q 1100 applications include air treatment for odor remediation, scent branding and ambient scenting in public spaces such as casinos, malls, hotels, theaters, ballrooms, convention centers, hospitals, and restrooms. The Air‐Q 1100 generates ultra fine, ultra‐light droplets approximately 500 nanometers in diameter. By comparison, a droplet from a pressurized aerosol is 50 microns (50000 nanometers) in diameter or 166 times larger than an Air‐Q 1100 droplet. In terms of weight and volume of liquid, the comparison is even more dramatic. A 50‐micron aerosol droplet is 4.6 million times heavier than a 300‐nanometer Air‐Q droplet. This tiny Air‐Q droplet offers many performance benefits over a conventional aerosol including: completely uniform distribution of the treatment agent; 100 times more exposed surface area allowing use of much less air treatment agent per cubic foot; and the absence of any liquid deposits on surfaces such as the interior surfaces in a HVAC system. The Air‐Q 1100 Guide is packed with important information that will help the users, installers and service engineers optimize the performance of this modern air treatment system. We encourage you to read it carefully. This is calculated using the formula for the volume of a sphere where V is the volume or weight and r is the radius of the droplet.
