Get rid of viruses, bacteria and molds. Disinfect the air you breathe.
Please read carefully through these instructions for use before installing this device.
Congratulations on your purchase of your Viroxid
The Viroxid
Habitat 3 is based on existing air disinfection methods that
®
are already being used to purify the air in hospital operating theatres.
Three successful methods have now combined into a single device
that is suitable for smaller areas up to 100 m
air ionization, filtration and UV-C disinfection.
Purifying the air you breathe is no longer a superfluous luxury. An in-
creasing number of micro-organisms can be found in the air, including
viruses, bacteria and moulds, and these make our air less healthy to
breath. We are increasingly made aware of how dangerous these mi-
cro-organisms could become for human beings.
As these micro-organisms cannot be seen with the naked eye and
are spreading through the air, this hazard becomes even more pro-
nounced.
Research indicates that the air quality in enclosed spaces can be very
poor indeed. Office areas, children's day-care centres, classrooms, old
people's homes and family doctors' or dentists' surgeries are examples
of areas where many people come together, and where the risk of
infection through the air is correspondingly higher.
Our houses are also much better insulated than they used to be, with
the result that natural ventilation is steadily reduced. The quality of the
air inside is therefore often poorer than we think. Poor air quality at
home is not only responsible for diseases, but can also be the cause of
headaches, respiratory irritation, insomnia and allergies.
With an Viroxid
Habitat 3 device, you can disinfect the air up to 99,99%
®
in areas up to 100 m
. In the case of larger areas, you can install sev-
3
eral devices. Viruses, bacteria, moulds and other micro-organisms that
are present in the air are rendered harmless by the device and are
removed from the air, together with pollen, dust and odours.
You will quickly notice how the quality of the air has improved, and will
feel fitter and more comfortable. Your Viroxid
to keep the air around you safe and healthy.
Operation
The air is drawn into the underside of the device using a ventilator,
thereby creating air circulation in the room.
The ventilator circulates 50 m
3
Depending on the size of the room, the ventilator can be set to the
"low" position (25 m
air per hour / noise level 15 decibels) or to the
3
"high" position (50 m
air per hour / noise level 19 decibels). By setting
3
a starting and a finishing time with the digital timer, you can set the
positions and the timing as you wish.
For the best results, it is recommended to keep your unit running 24
hours a day. If you place the unit in your bedroom, for example, you
could use the "low" position, which is at the same time the setting for
a reduced noise level.
The air that is drawn into the unit first flows through the
"3M High Air Flow (HAF) Filter with Antimicrobial".
This high-quality filter is also used in hospitals, among other areas.
The 3M filter removes larger particles from the air.

Habitat 3 is the ideal tool

of air through the unit per hour.
This special filter has an antimicrobial film that prevents the
development of micro-organisms on the filter.
The antimicrobial film also reduces clogging of the filter and increases
the filter's service life.
After passing through the filter, the air is treated with UV-C radiation. The
special Philips UV-C lamp in the unit generates an ultraviolet radiation
with a wavelength of 253.7 nanometres. The UV-C light destroys viruses,
bacteria, moulds and other primitive organisms. The radiation damages
the DNA structure of micro-organisms and prevents their reproduction.
The special aluminium interior of the housing provides additional re-
flection of the UV-C radiation, thereby increasing the efficiency of the
UV-C radiation up to 50%. The reflection ensures optimum operation
by completely exposing micro-organisms to the eliminating UV-C ra-
diation from all sides. After the UV-C treatment, the ionizer launches
8.5 million negative ions per cubic centimetre into the air. The large
number of negative ions in the air improves the resistance of the body,
and may even promote healing processes.
Outside air contains between 1,500 and 4,000 negative ions on aver-
age. This figure is much lower in enclosed areas, between 0 and 50 ions
per cubic centimetre. Poor air contains a lot of positive ions. Micro-or-
ganisms easily spread through the air using positive ions, and this also
applies to dust and pollen.
The negative ions that are introduced into the air form a compound
with the positive ions. These compounds are too heavy to float in the
air; they sink to the ground or are stopped by the filter.
The integrated timer keeps an accurate record of the number of oper-
ating hours of the lamp. This will tell you precisely when to replace the
lamp and the filter. In areas where more dust is present, the filter must
be replaced more often. The air that is blown out from the outlet at
the top of the unit has been filtered to 99,99%, and has been ionized
and disinfected.
Clean air in your living environment is better for your health. Pure air
not only increases the resistance of the body against diseases, but also
reduces respiratory problems, or could prevent such problems com-
pletely. Anxiety and depression are reduced, or disappear completely.
But the major effect is the prevention of diseases.
