About Teco Pure Aire Garbitzeko Modulua

Teco Pure aire-egokigailu baten gainean instalatzeko diseinatutako aire garbitzeko modulu bat da. Moduluak PM2.5 partikulak iragazten ditu eta UVC argia erabiltzen du airea esterilizatzeko sarreran, barneko aire-zirkulazioa hasten den lekuan. Txip zabalgarri batek modulua aire-egokigailuaren mainboardarekin konektatzen du, beraz ez da hargune elektriko gehigarririk behar, eta funtzionamendua urrutiko kontrolaren edo aplikazio mugikor baten bidez egin daiteke. Hautsa biltzeko sistema elektrostatikoak erabili-eta-botatzeko iragazkiak ordezkatzen ditu, eta hauts-biltzailea aldizka garbitzen da. Moduluak, gainera, gelako zoru-espazioa askatzen du.

Unique Properties: Due to urban air pollution and the COVID-19 pandemic, people have begun to pay attention to the quality of the air they breathe every day. Therefore, how to provide clean air for people, is the advanced issue pursued in the development of this product. TECO has developed a set of cleaning modules that can be integrated above the air conditioner. Besides filtering PM2.5, it is also equipped with UV light which sterilizes and disinfects the air.
Dimensions & Packaging: Height 60mm X Length 840mm X Depth 163mm
Tags: Air, Purifier, TECO, Clean
Production Technology: In fact, there is no need for an extra power socket to install the TECO Pure UVC Module. With the integrated design of the chip, TECO inserts the function into the air conditioner's motherboard in the form of an expansion chip, and people can easily follow it through the remote control or mobile APP. When the air conditioner starts, it will activate the module as well. With the TECO Pure UVC Module installed at the air inlet, it can filter and sterilize the air at the source of indoor air circulation, continuously providing clean air. As a result, people will be able to achieve the same air purification effect as an air purifier.
Design Challenge: The chemical properties of the material presented great difficulties during the design process of the TECO Pure UVC Module. UVC irradiation causes the plastic shell to become fragile and crack after a long period of time. It was only through numerous experiments that the intensity and angle of UVC irradiation were adjusted, as well as optimizing the composition of the plastic shell, that a stable and long-lasting product was created.
Research: For air conditioners, people mostly stay in control of temperature and humidity and focus less on the treatment of air quality. According to market research, TECO found that consumers' expectations for air quality are increasing every day, so they decided to integrate the air purifier into the air conditioner, which can cut consumer expenditures while filtering air from the beginning. The TECO Pure UVC Module has become a unique design in the industry due to its independent development and the advantages of local production. As of now, no similar product is available for integration into air conditioners in Taiwan.
Inspiration: TECO Pure UVC Module, an air cleaning device attached to the top of the air conditioner, effectively integrates and solves the consumer's demand for healthy air. The device can help purify the internally circulating air environment created by the air conditioner. The UV-C technology on the device can sterilize viruses and acts like an air purifier without needing to be placed on the floor, freeing up consumer space and reducing the risk of tripping.
Project Duration: Lauched in Jan 2022 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow: When talking about air purifiers, it is directly associated with filter consumables that need to be replaced on a regular basis. The TECO Pure UVC Module adopts the technology of electrostatic dust collection to absorb dirt. Therefore, as long as the dust collector is cleaned regularly. Because of the integration of chips, the TECO Pure UVC Module consumes much less power to drive, allowing the same air purification effect as a real air purifier. In addition to effectively reducing the waste of consumables and electricity, it can also reduce the carbon footprint while enhancing the quality of life and creating a healthy environment.
