Product Selection and Typical Installation
Build your air-treatment system step by step: enter your air volume, choose the treatment stages you need, and see the recommended IVOLTAIR models and how they are installed.

Typical installation: what each part does
Air moves from left to right: it is captured at the source, cleaned in stages and discharged by the exhaust fan.
Capture hood
Kitchen canopy, machine enclosure or bench hood that captures smoke and fumes at the source. In HVAC systems this is the return-air intake.
Duct
Carries the air to the treatment units. Duct size sets the air velocity, which must stay within the specified range for rated efficiency.
IVOLTAIR ESP
Pre-filter mesh, ozone-free ZSS® ionizer and collector plates remove smoke, grease, oil mist and dust from 0.1 to 10 µm, with 95% single-pass efficiency.
Activated carbon V bank
Sits directly after the matching ESP. Activated carbon granules (iodine value 1000) adsorb odours and VOCs.
UV bank with ozone
High-intensity UV lamps inactivate micro-organisms and generate ozone, which oxidises remaining odour compounds in the duct before discharge.
Exhaust fan and discharge
The fan draws air through the whole train and discharges clean, low-odour air to atmosphere.
Installation guidelines
General guidance. Every project gets a free site inspection and a confirmed layout from our team.
- Install the ESP after the hood and before the exhaust fan, so the fan draws air through the unit.
- Size the duct and unit so the air velocity stays within the specified range: lower velocity means higher capture.
- Choose the mounting that suits the site: ceiling suspended, floor or stand mount. Every unit is bi-directional (BDC™), so air can enter from either end.
- Leave clear access in front of the doors so cells and mesh filters can slide out for washing.
- For airflows above 20,400 m³/h, install identical units in parallel with balanced branch ducts.
- Power: 110–220 V AC, 50 Hz single phase. The no-volt relay can report status to the BMS.
- Place activated carbon banks directly after the matching ESP, and the UV/ozone bank downstream so ozone acts in the duct before discharge.
- UV and ozone are hazardous to eyes and skin: isolate the supply before opening the UV bank and let ozone disperse before entering.
