Accurate Testing for Hydrogen Peroxide Emissions from Ionic Air Purifiers

Hydrogen peroxide emissions from air ionizers can present potential health and safety risks in confined spaces. LCS Laboratory provides specialized testing to accurately measure hydrogen peroxide levels released by air ionizers, ensuring compliance with safety standards and protecting your environment.

Why Is This Testing Important?

Air ionizers are widely used to improve air quality by releasing negative ions that bind to fine particles, such as those in smoke, allergens, or dust. While effective in air purification, these devices can emit trace amounts of ozone and hydrogen peroxide, which may accumulate in indoor environments. Prolonged exposure to elevated levels of hydrogen peroxide can irritate the respiratory system, eyes, and skin, posing a risk to human health. Testing ensures that air ionizers meet safety thresholds and operate without compromising user well-being.

Technical Details of the Hydrogen Peroxide Emission Test

LCS Laboratory uses advanced techniques to measure hydrogen peroxide emissions with precision:

  • Testing Method: The procedure is based on the OSHA 1019 method, a recognized standard for hydrogen peroxide detection.
  • Sensitivity: The test can detect hydrogen peroxide concentrations as low as 30 parts per billion (ppb), ensuring reliable results even for minimal emissions.
  • Environmental Chamber: The air ionizer is placed in a controlled environmental chamber to simulate real-world conditions.
  • Monitoring Period: Hydrogen peroxide accumulation is monitored continuously for six hours to capture emission trends.
  • Comprehensive Reporting: Once testing is complete, we provide a detailed report that includes raw analytical data, observations, and findings. This report offers valuable insights to manufacturers, consultants, and end-users.

Protect Your Environment and Ensure Compliance

Understanding and managing hydrogen peroxide emissions is crucial for maintaining safe indoor air quality and adhering to regulatory standards. With LCS Laboratory’s expertise, you can ensure your air ionizers meet safety requirements and deliver effective performance without health risks.
