ABSTRACT:
An air cleaner with separate ozone gas and ionized air outputs, and method of purifying air is provided. The air cleaner includes an exterior housing which houses an ozone generator component and a ionized air generator component. In operation, air is drawn through the air cleaner by means of a blower and is first passed through a multi-layered filter. The air then passes through an ionizer which ionizes the air and induces on it a net negative electric charge. As the ionized air is recirculated back into the device, the negatively charged air is electrostatically precipitated by the filter which maintains a net positive electric charge. The ozone generator component within the housing draws in air via an air pump which produces an output of pressurized air to the ozone generator. Within a mixing chamber of the ozone generator, the pressurized air is mixed with ozone produced therein and is then output through an independent ozone outlet tube. The ozone and ion generators may be operated simultaneously or separately wherein surrounding air is electrostatically precipitated and/or mixed with ozone gas. Alternatively, an extension tube is connectable to the ozone outlet tube to enable a concentrated ozone mixture to be applied to a remote location. A timer circuit within the apparatus enables the ozone generator to be controlled to shutdown at a preset time.
