Unique built-in HEPA filter New Tiger ECO Pure hand dryer from ATC

Leading on from the popularity of the Tiger ECO Hand Dryer, ATC’s technical team has been at work innovating a new addition to the highspeed hand dryer range.

The Tiger ECO Pure boasts a built-in HEPA filter change indicator, setting it apart from other hand dryers on the market. A flashing LED on the front of the unit indicates exactly when the HEPA filter needs to be changed. This allows for easy service and maintenance of the product and also ensures a more hygienic experience for all users in all washroom facilities.

This new Tiger ECO Pure hand dryer has been designed for use in areas of medium to high footfall, such as hospitals and medical facilities, schools, hotels, offices and leisure facilities. The built-in HEPA filter captures 99.9% of harmful particles for hygiene and efficient hand drying.

What is HEPA?

HEPA stands for “high efficiency particle arrestor”, which works to trap tiny particles (up to 0.3 micrometres in diameter) found in the air. By capturing harmful particles, HEPA filters offer a seamless and hygienic hand-drying experience.

ATC HEPA filters are composed of very thin fibres of glass and carbonactivated material. The result is a thick, paper-like material arranged in pleats. Particles passing through the air are trapped within this material.

Maintenance

People change their coffee filters regularly and the same applies to HEPA filters. The HEPA filter should be changed every six months as the captured particles add up, and over time reduce the effectiveness of the filter. Thanks to the HEPA filter change indicator, which is unique to the Tiger ECO Pure hand dryer, the flashing LED automatically alerts when the HEPA filter needs to be changed.

Further benefits of the Tiger ECO Pure also include:

Energy efficiency – High Speed technology, drying hands in just 15 seconds;

Lower energy bills –Heating element can be switched On/Off; Hygienic washrooms –HEPA filters remove harmful particles such as bacteria, mould and dust; Energy savings – Kinder to the environment than paper towels, thus reducing the C02 emissions and waste to landfill. One ton of paper towels is the equivalent of 17 trees.

Build2Perform Live is CIBSE’s flagship two-day event featuring over 70 hours of content, 125 speakers and over 100 exhibitors. The CIBSE CPD-accredited programme is carefully curated by CIBSE Divisions, CIBSE special interest groups and the Build2Perform Live Advisory Committee, with specialist speakers invited from across the built environment. Dates are 13/14 November 2024 and the venue is London ExCEL.

New for this year is Maintain2Perform. This dedicated zone will highlight facilities management and the importance of this discipline in the built environment. With its own theatre featuring one day of technical content covering the latest trends and topics within FM, this is an ideal opportunity to be part of this inaugural event.

This year also sees the return of Light2Perform which brings together lighting professionals, electrical engineers, facilities managers, lighting manufacturers, digital engineers and many more to discuss the key topics relating to anyone who works with light and lighting.

With a programme carefully curated by the Society of Light and Lighting (SLL), Light2Perform offers one day of the most up-to-date lighting content. Day one of the event will feature the dedicated Light2Perform programme, covering lighting and inclusivity, the circular economy, and what can be learned from post-occupancy evaluation.

The theme of the Light2Perform conference is “Lighting Quality for People” with presentations and panel discussions on lighting for people with neurodiversity, people with visual impairment, the new aesthetic of repair and re-use, post-occupancy evaluation of office lighting, and what can be learned from light dosimetry.

On day two of the programme, the dedicated Maintain2Perform content will cover updates to Guide M: Maintenance and Engineering, NABERS UK for FM and Operations Managers, healthcare maintenance, and more.

Speakers will deliver focused, fastpaced and informative presentations, useful to all who are involved in the design, specification, running and maintaining of building services engineering systems.
