Poor indoor air quality can be caused by pollution from outside or from objects indoors that we don't realize are breeding grounds for germs. Especially in a closed room without ventilation, this place will of course be a place where dust, bacteria, fungi and viruses will continue to be in the room and multiply so that it pollutes the air and reduces its quality.

Maintaining lung health is an important thing to do, because the lungs are organs that play a very important role in the respiratory system for humans. There are various kinds of microorganisms in the air that can infect a person to cause interference with lung health. Poor indoor air quality is associated with various lung diseases such as; asthma, COPD, and lung cancer. The risk of heart disease and stroke may also increase.

Therefore, it is necessary to take action to control the air quality of a room, one of which is by means of ventilation interventions. Ventilation interventions can help reduce the number of infectious viral particles. Examples of Ventilation Interventions include; opening windows, using fans, adding a high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) fan/filter system, and ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI).

WHAT IS UVGI?

Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is the use of ultraviolet (UV) energy to kill viral, bacterial and fungal organisms. UVGI equipment produces UV-C energy, which has a shorter wavelength than the more penetrating UV-A and UV-B rays and poses less risk to human health.

OXIRA

Picture 1. OXIRA

OXIRA is an air disinfectant product that has UVGI lamp technology. This UV light will work to damage the DNA / RNA of viruses, bacteria and infectious fungi circulating in the air of a closed room, then limiting their ability to grow and reproduce. OXIRA is designed to mimic nature, operating quietly, efficiently and without the use of chemicals.

Here are 8 reasons why OXIRA is suitable as an air disinfectant:

• There are 4 variants of OXIRA

There are 4 variants of OXIRA owned by PT Isotekindo Intertama:

• • OXIRA XG

Has a wavelength of 254 nm & suction on the top surface of the tool

• • OXIRA XG Sentry

This is the latest product development of OXIRA XG, where this type adds a nickel and chromium alloy layer on the inner wall. Serves to increase the disinfection power of UV rays emitted, so that the power of damaging the DNA & RNA of infectious microorganisms increases

• • OXIRA XN

Has a wavelength of 185 nm, capable of producing ozone and eliminating odors

• • OXIRA XN Sentry

This type of OXIRA is a product development of OXIRA XN, where there is an additional layer of nickel and chromium mixture on the inner wall of the tool. This layer serves to increase the disinfection power of UV rays emitted, so that the damaging power of DNA & RNA of infectious microorganisms increases.

• Size, Color and Material of OXIRA

Picture 2. OXIRA

• • OXIRA has  dimension of 360 x 46 x 41 (mm), so it does not require large space, easy to place & elegant shape enhances the beauty of space
  • Has 2 attractive color choices; Meteorite Gray & Glacier White
  • The cover is made of Powder Coated Zinc Annealed Steel 
  • The inner wall is coated with a mixture of nickel and chromium. The material is claimed to be stronger and more stable against ultraviolet rays so that the ability of UV rays to glow is doubled against microorganisms

• UV lamp "highest purity quartz" category

Picture 3. OXIRA

Ultraviolet lamps belong to the "highest purity quartz" category produced by Germany's Heraues GmbH. The wavelength produced by UVGI lamps is stable for 10,000-15,000 hours (with use 24 hours / day)

• Export Quality Suction & Blowing Fan

Export quality combined with ultraviolet lamps are in accordance with the theoretical basis of exposure time and high durability, with quiet sound. The fan volume is very low. So that when placed in the bedroom, office or study room, it does not interfere with activities & rest and provides comfort

• Appliance Weight & Electrical Supply

The weight of the tool is around 1 kg with the need for a 20 watt electricity supply so as to create space and energy efficiency which leads to cost efficiency

• Has passed various clinical trials

It has passed various clinical trials in Australia, India and Indonesia. OXIRA is proven to significantly reduce 83% of the number of colonies of infectious microorganisms in the air thereby increasing trust & safety for OXIRA users.

• Global Product ID Certified

Certified with Global Product ID so that the authenticity of OXIRA is guaranteed, proven to be precise & durable

• Official Guarantee

OXIRA users will receive an official distributor guarantee from PT Isotekindo Intertama. This guarantee will certainly provide peace, comfort and trust for users
