Abstract: An improved method is disclosed for cleaning a flow of gaseous fluid, such as room air, from particles present in the fluid, the gaseous fluid being ionized, and using a conductive grid placed across and upstream of the filter for protecting the filter from being charged by free ions. An air purifier filter cartridge using the ion-intercepting grid of the invention is also disclosed. The grid may be connected to or electrically insulated from the ionizer ground potential, with equal effect.

Abstract: An air cleaner includes a fan unit (1; 1′) and a filter unit (3) that is entirely replaceable, where the fan unit (1; 1′) and the filter unit (3) are mutually connected by a quick coupling and the filter unit includes a filter and an exterior casing that defines an exterior of the air cleaner when the air cleaner is in an operating position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for cleaning of a gaseous fluid from particles being present in the fluid, the gaseous fluid being ionized, i.e. the particles are subjected to a charging, and that the ionized gaseous fluid is brought to pass through a precipitator unit (2) including a filter medium. The invention also relates to a device for cleaning of a gaseous fluid. Filters for cleaning of air often require expensive filter medium and complicated arrangements as regards ionization of the air and charging of the filter medium. The present invention is characterized by an extremely simple method where the air is ionized and then the ionized air is brought to pass through a filter medium of polypropylene.
