C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™ questions, with the company’s answers and the sources they come from.
Last reviewed: .
All questions in this libraryIf a purifier has an air-quality sensor, which pollutant does that sensor actually measure?
A sensor in an air cleaner belongs to the unit, not to the filter, and C-POLAR publishes no sensor specification.
Passive describes the filter, not the system around it. The filter is passive. It draws no power, and it has no power supply, electrode, lamp or reservoir. Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format. The manufacturer and seller of a finished product are responsible for its design, manufacture, labeling, instructions, claims, sale, and warranty, except for a responsibility C-POLAR expressly accepts in a Separate Agreement. What a sensor measures, how a control mode uses its reading, and whether a displayed figure is measured or estimated are stated by the maker of the unit. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.

Can a particle sensor verify the claimed biological effect of the filter?
A particle count measures particles, and it does not show what happened to an organism the filter captured.
ASHRAE 52.2 and ISO 16890 measure what a filter takes out of the air, and they say nothing about what happens to what is captured. A measurement taken before a filter and a measurement taken after it describe what that filter removed from the air that passed through it. The company's position on destruction is stated in the Statement of Classification for the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter, section 2.6: The filter is intended to destroy the viruses, bacteria and fungal spores it captures. It destroys them on direct contact with the positive electric charge, by physical means, and only while the organism is captured by the positive electric charge. Textile Testing Institute – Brno (TZÚ), Test Report AZL 26/0757-02, 3 July 2026, a laboratory accredited to ISO/IEC 17025, tested a MERV 15A filter medium under ISO 20743 and ISO 18184. An activity value is a difference against an untreated control fabric. It is not a percentage destroyed and not an airborne result. The Viruses page shows airborne virus at 1.3 m/s airflow, NanoFlashing™ beside a control, and states: “NanoFlashing™ captures the virus, and destroys it.” The Mold page shows airborne mold spores at 1.6 m/s airflow, NanoFlashing™ beside a control, and states: “NanoFlashing™ captures the mold, and destroys it.” The Mold page also states that researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, in a study with funding from the U.S. National Institutes of Health, tested NanoFlashing™ with more than 100 million live, dry spores driven in by fast-moving air.
The field observations on the Validation page were measured with MicronView's 405 nm Bio-fluorescent Air Monitoring System, which distinguishes biological particles from inert dust in real time, and they are reported separately from laboratory testing. The Terms of Use state: “A reported result describes only what the identified test found.”

Does a sensor upstream of the filter answer a different question from one downstream?
Yes: a sensor upstream of the filter reads the air reaching it, and a sensor downstream reads the air that has passed through it.

It is a physical property of the filter. The label's directions are mechanical: fit the filter into the filter track with the airflow arrow pointing toward the blower, check that it sits square in the track with no gap at the frame, and replace it at the pressure drop or the interval printed on it, whichever comes first.

Can a sensor's readings be checked against an independent instrument?
A reading from a unit's own sensor is checked against an instrument by the people who run that unit, and C-POLAR publishes no method for doing it.
What the company measures on its own article is the charge. The polarity is a positive electric charge at rest. It is measured as surface charge density, in nanocoulombs per square centimetre. The charge is measured on every production run, and the measurement can be repeated on any filter, upon request.

The company publishes no software update process.
The software in a connected air cleaner is the work of the manufacturer that makes the unit, and C-POLAR publishes none of it.
C-POLAR markets a materials technology. Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format. The manufacturer and seller of a finished product are responsible for its design, manufacture, labeling, instructions, claims, sale, and warranty, except for a responsibility C-POLAR expressly accepts in a Separate Agreement. INHALO™, named on the Air page, is a wall-mounted air cleaner built around a NanoFlashing™ Air Filter. Passive describes the filter, not the system around it. The filter is passive. It draws no power, and it has no power supply, electrode, lamp or reservoir.
What an app, a firmware release, a cloud service, an alarm threshold or a building-management connection does, and for how long it is supported, is set by the maker of the unit. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.
