About Your Negative Air Machine

The Carrier OptiClean™ negative air machine is a portable, minimum
500 CFM solution primarily designed to help convert normal hospital
rooms into Airborne Infectious Isolation Rooms (AIIR). Designed to
ASHRAE's Standard 170 for Ventilation of Health Care Facilities, the
Carrier OptiClean uses highly efficient filters and a heavy duty, yet
quiet, motor to remove contaminated air from the room. The resulting
negative air pressure, or "vacuum effect," helps limit the spread of
air-based contaminants into surrounding areas. If negative pressure is not
required, such as in an open-air, temporary hospital, the machine can be
used as an air "scrubber," pulling air in, removing many contaminants,
and discharging cleaner air back into the room.
The Carrier OptiClean negative air machine has the following features:
• 99.97% efficient long-life HEPA filter removes particles as small as
0.3 microns

Facilities

• Portable and adaptable to nearly any location
• Heavy duty locking casters for easy and smooth transport

• Red lighted indicator to alert user when filters are overloaded
(generally means pre-filter requires replacement)
