Overview
This document specifies a method to evaluate the capability of portable household air cleaners to reduce the concentration and viability of key experimentally generated bioaerosols in a specified chamber. This document deals with measurement procedures regarding the reduction of the microbial contamination related to electrical air cleaner appliances for household and similar use. This document does not apply to appliances intended to be used in medical, veterinary, or pharmaceutical applications. This document does not address sanitization, disinfection, or sterilization measures. This document does not support, by itself any health-related claims or conclusions about prevention or treatment of a disease or health improvement. The test is applicable to portable air cleaners commonly used in single room spaces such as those based on mechanical filtration, ultraviolet (UV), ionizers, photocatalytic oxidation, and ozone generators in-unit technology.
