PLASMACLUSTER TECHNOLOGY
PLASMACLUSTER TECHNOLOGY
SHARPs exclusive Plasmacluster™ ions bring you a clean and healthy lifestyle. Plasma discharge
generates and emits the same positive and negative ions that occur in nature. Plasmacluster
technology is SHARP´s original air purifying technology that removes suspended airborne mold
and viruses.

TECHNOLOGY FOR MORE FRESHNESS
AND EFFICIENCY
Positive and negative ions released
from vents inside the refrigerator
permeate the air throughout, affec-
ting the cell membrane of bacteria
and halting cell reproduction. The
result is a reduction in odors and
longer lasting freshness of the food
in your refrigerator.

Plasmacluster technology is an original Sharp sanitizing technology that purifies the air by
emitting highly safe positive and negative ions of the same type found in nature. It sanitizes and
purifies suspended airborne mold, viruses and allergens. The benefits have been proven by official
test institutions in Japan and around the world.

Plasmacluster ions cut through and remove
proteins in suspended allergens generated by dust
mite feces and dead mites, reducing their effects.
Plasmacluster ions cut through and remove the cell
membrane proteins on suspended mold surfaces,
inhibiting their effects.
High-density Plasmacluster ions remove suspended
mold and reduce the growth of adhered mold.
Increase in Adhering
Odor Removal Speed
(1.5 Times Faster)
High-density Plasmacluster Ions increase deodorizing
speed. Depending on the way in which the Air Purifier is
used, a concentrated airflow of high-density Plasmacluster
ions can also reduce sweat odors clinging to clothes.
Plasmacluster ions remove hydrogen from adhering
odor molecules, breaking down and removing odor
components.

Test method: Plasmacluster ions were emitted into an experimental chamber with a floor area
of about 13 m
2
, and the suspended mold was measured with an air sampler. Sharp has
graphed the results using approximate figures. (Plasmacluster ion density: 3,000/cm
