With development of a civilization the mankind began to forget what it is walks in the fresh air far from productions. And such walks are very necessary for our organism. Actively continuing industrialization pollutes the environment more and more. The dust soaring in air, dirt, pitches get to our organism, collect and have negative effect on the processes happening in it. Therefore more often recommend to resort to purification of air in premises by means of ionizers.
Description and main functions
The ionizer — the device which creates free ions. It consists of the power supply with the converter of alternating current in constant, the regulator of the current and tension coming to electrodes (emitters of ions). As a rule, them are metal needles. Still surely in the device there has to be a filter.
It can be:
- electrostatic — the metal plate which is under positive or negative potential. It is considered the most reliable;
- NERA — the sheet of fibrous material put by an accordion;
- photocatalytic — a source of ultra-violet radiation. Treats the most effective and expensive;
- coal — it is filled with activated carbon. Perfectly eliminates smells. Demands frequent replacement;
- mesh — very small grid catching large particles like grains of sand, wool. It is ineffective, but is durable.
The main function of the device is purification of air by its ionization.
Whether you know? The first ionizer can be considered Chizhevsky's chandelier. Her founder Alexander Leonidovich Chizhevsky in 1936 was removed from posts and accused of falsification of scientific data and of incompetence.
Principle of work
By the principle of work all devices are absolutely identical regardless of that unipolar (generates only negative ions) or bipolar (generates positive and negative ions) it is a look. At turning on of the device on an edge of a needle there is a crown category. The formed electrons in interaction with neutral molecules turn into negative ions. So there is an ionization of air and all foreign particles which are in it. Air molecules lungs, and they get via the device freely. Foreign impurity heavier, and they are attracted to opposite charged filter and accumulate on it.
Than it is useful
In the room cleaned and sated with negative ions:
- the person feels better;
- its organism becomes more resistant to viruses;
- fatigue leaves;
To feel well and vigorously for all day learn to get enough sleep, also for improvement of an emotional state it is possible to begin to be engaged in fitness yoga, kallanetiky or yoga.
- the working capacity increases;
- insomnia vanishes;
- the mood is lightened;
- blood is more saturated with oxygen;
- it is easier breathed to asthmatics and allergic persons;
- unpleasant smells and harmful microorganisms are eliminated.
Whether harm is possible
As the device loads parts of air with a negative charge, they will be attracted to all positive that is around. Therefore if you will be near the device, then all dust will accumulate on you and in your lungs as you contact to a positively charged floor. It follows from this that for the period of ionization of the room it is necessary to leave it.
Also if in operating time of the ionizer in the room there is a person with the virus transmitted in the airborne way, then the probability to catch a virus others considerably will increase.
It is important! To reach necessary effect of operation of the device, do not include it for a long time as ionizers produce ozone which has negative effect on living beings. It is better to start the ionizer on a short period, but is more often.
Happens that to the person does not approach to breathe the ionized air. It is caused by individual sensitivity to aeroions. Therefore before purchase of the device it is necessary to be convinced that to you will comfortably inhale such air.
Contraindications
The device possesses also a number of contraindications:
- it is impossible to ionize the room in which there is a person with the increased temperature. There will be an acceleration of a metabolism in its organism that will lead to a bigger temperature increase;
- patients cannot breathe the ionized air with bronchial asthma. Such air creates additional loads of airways;
- babies and cancer patients also do not suit the ionized air;
- it is not recommended to turn on ionizers indoors where there is on rehabilitation a postoperative patient.
We advise to read what threats carries air and also how to purify air in the apartment.
All ionizers have both positive, and negative sides. It is possible to reduce their negative impact at the correct operation. The main thing is to remember that positive dynamics will be notable not in a minute, and later a certain period.
