K9 Air Purification System

Product catalog summary
Introduction to K9 System
The K9 is a British-developed air purification system designed to achieve ultra-clean air, similar to sterile conditions in clinical environments. It is effective against all airborne pathogens, including coronavirus, and is suitable for healthcare, commercial, hospitality, and educational settings. The system can be wall-mounted or mobile, offering flexibility and ease of use.
About Air Sentry
Founded in 2000, Air Sentry specializes in air purification systems initially developed for NHS hospitals. The K9 system extends this expertise to non-clinical settings, providing a cost-effective yet high-quality HEPA solution.
Technical Specifications
The K9 system features a steel casing, weighs between 17-27.2 kg, and operates at 30-150W power. It uses an EN1822 HEPA14 filter, achieving air change rates equivalent to 30 air changes per hour, with noise levels ranging from 32dB to 68dB. It operates on 230v or 100 to 130v and consumes around 70-150w.
How K9 Works
The K9 system creates a slow-moving air current that pulls air from the entire room, ensuring even the corners receive ultra-clean air. This design reduces surface deposition of pathogens and can work independently or alongside existing air conditioning systems.
Client Story: British Gypsum
British Gypsum implemented the K9 system to reduce coronavirus transmission. Testing showed significant air quality improvement, with rapid aerosol dilution and extended filter life due to additional pre-filters.
Acquiring a K9 System
To obtain a K9 system, contact Air Sentry for a consultation. The system can be purchased or leased, and an Air Sentry Technician will assist with installation and optimization.
FAQs
The K9 system has a filter life of 24 months, runs on 100-230 volts, and is CE/UKCA marked. It is designed to clean air throughout the entire room and can be rented if needed.
Specifications
The K9 unit purifies air throughout an entire room, including corners, by creating a rising rotational air current. The filter is manufactured to EN1822 standards and is tested individually before shipment. The expected lifespan of the filter is 24 months under normal use.
Procedures
Annual servicing is recommended, with services available directly in England and Wales, and through trained agents in other areas. After each service, particle counts and 1μm aerosol dilution testing are conducted. The onboard electronics monitor the system every 5 minutes to ensure air quality.
Norms and Standards
The K9 unit is certified to ISO9001:2015 standards and comes with dual certification. It does not require UV light for virus deactivation due to its advanced hospital-grade filter design.
Recommendations
The best location for the unit is mid-wall for mobile and fixed units, and 30cm from the ceiling for mounted units. It is advised to follow simple steps in line with government advice to reduce infection risk to near zero.
Support and Warranty
A 12-month warranty is offered, with a 24-hour support line available for queries. The system rarely fails if correctly serviced. Lead times for units are typically six weeks, but efforts are made to reduce this if requested.
Additional Information
The K9 unit removes 100% of all known airborne pathogens, including coronavirus, by trapping them within the filter where they are dried out and deactivated. The system is easy to operate and includes a rental program with costs similar to renting high-end printers.

The image below shows a computerised modeling of air flow in an office with a K9 unit. This slow-moving air flow 'pulls' air from the entire room. The K9 system creates an air current in the room including corner areas. The result of this air movement through the room and through the K9 unit is that all air is purified within the room, at all heights and even in the corners. Other systems on the market do not work in this way, especially where ventilation inlets and outlets are solely ceiling mounted. The design of the slow-moving air current also has the additional benefit of reducing surface...

Conclusions It can be seen from the previous table that each area is now reaching clean room standards for air quality. There is a high-quality regime of air sampling already in existence and we would expect the next set of these to reflect lower pollutant levels for particles of concern to be subsequently evidenced by this report. With regard to coronavirus we also undertook 1um aerosol release testing in each area. In an unventilated space a bio aerosol can remain suspended for up to 28 days without touching a surface. For coronavirus this may mean transmission is feasible up to 7 days after...
