The air in healthcare facilities must meet the sanitary and hygienic standards set out in the DBN and DSanPiN standards. For this purpose, great attention is paid to the development and installation of ventilation and air conditioning systems, ensuring the capture of pollutants and particles, and the selection of effective equipment for this purpose. In this case, primary, coarse-cleaning and special, HEPA fine air filters for hospitals are often used.
Features of ventilation systems
Medical facilities distinguish between general exchange and local ventilation. The former is needed to supply fresh air to corridors, administrative offices, common patient areas, and most rooms and wards. Separate filtration systems in hospitals are needed for “clean” rooms where it is important to maintain a special microclimate. These may include operating rooms, laboratories, intensive care units, etc.
Certain procedures and studies, surgical interventions, and other processes require a safe atmosphere, as pathogenic viruses or germs can negatively affect the results or lead to complications. Therefore, state standards stipulate the need for high-quality removal of elements of potential threats, purification of air in operating rooms and other “clean” rooms to the permissible number of microorganisms and particles.
Filters for medical institutions
Depending on the purpose of the ventilation system, it can be equipped with various equipment for air purification, filtration, and heating or cooling.
Air purification and filtration systems for medical facilities usually have several degrees of purification.
- Coarse purification. Such filter elements are capable of capturing particles larger than 10 microns. These can be dust, soot, aerosol droplets, insects, etc. Coarse filters are made of cellulose, nonwoven fibers, and fiberglass. The choice of material affects the efficiency and service life. Such filters are used as the first stage of purification.
- Fine purification. Capable of capturing contaminants up to 0.4 microns in size: plant pollen, dust mites, fungi, etc. They are made of materials that provide good throughput and long service life.
- Ultra-fine cleaning. It is used in areas with high requirements for the quality of the internal microclimate. The optimal solution for this is HEPA filters for medical facilities. The specifics of materials and design make it possible to capture particles from 0.3 microns. At the same time, their efficiency is only slightly less than 100%. That is, they are capable of removing viruses, microorganisms, toxic dust, etc. from the air stream.
