A breathing air compressor having an inlet air ultraviolet C light radiation emitter and viral and bacterial filtration system for air introduced into the air compressor. The viral and bacterial filtration system includes a cylindrical housing that includes a UVC radiation emitter mounted in a flow-through UVC radiation chamber, an inlet air particulate filter, and a flowmeter for measuring the volume and rate of flow of air to destroy viruses and bacteria present in any air flowing through the UVC chamber that is input air to an air compressor. The air compressor is typically used for generating breathing air for persons such as firemen and SCUBA divers. A controller and monitor unit is connected to the UVC radiation emitter and the flowmeter to shut down the air compressor to prevent air starvation.

A dry diffuser is disclosed which avoids safety and transport issues typical of liquid diffusers, candles and wax melts and provides systematic controlled diffusion of fragrance (or other active material) over relatively long periods with a programmable user interface.

In certain exemplary embodiments, an air purifier comprises a housing defining an enclosure and having an air entrance and an air exit; a particulate filter; a NCCO filter material configured to adsorb and decompose at least one gaseous pollutant; an AOG configured to generate at least one oxidant; an oxidant remover configured to remove at least one oxidant; a fan unit configured to generate airflow from the air entrance to the air exit; wherein the particulate filter, the NCCO filter material, the AOG, the oxidant remover and the fan unit are positioned within the enclosure such that during operation, a flow of air passes from the air entrance to the air exit through the particulate filter and the NCCO filter material along a direction of the flow of air. In certain embodiments, the air purifier may ensure safety to users while efficiency in removing contaminants can be greatly improved.

Disclosed are an air intake mechanism and a negative pressure system. The air intake mechanism includes a first air intake end, a first air outlet end, and a first passage provided between the first air intake end and the first air outlet end, a first air driving unit is provided on the first passage, a first filter assembly is provided between the first air intake end and the first air driving unit, and a second filter assembly is provided between the first air outlet end and the first air driving unit.

Embodiments of a controlled odor emission system and device include an odor presentation port tube and an odor tray securely retained against a platform, a valve housing securable to the platform adjacent the tray, a valve secured within the valve housing and an actuator for moving the valve. By controlling movement of the valve, precise amounts of an odor can be dispensed under programmatic control for training animals. Further, a system incorporating a central control unit and a reward dispenser in communication with an odor emission device to facilitate animal training.

An elongated lighting module having an asymmetric illumination source formed from at least two rows of light emitting diodes (LEDs) that extend along the long axis of the module and are independently controllable. The lighting modules are powered via a wiring harness that extends down a support pole to a power converter stack having LED drivers to control the modules. The power supply for lighting module includes a power enclosure having individual light emitting drivers for powering the rows of light emitting diodes that can adjust the power level to compensate for the loss of power from another of the light emitting drivers. The power supply may also include a backup that can be switched over to power the rows of light emitting diodes in the event of a failure.

An air monitoring system includes a housing having a housing inlet and a housing outlet. An airflow is configured to pass through the housing inlet into the housing. A sensor is located within the housing. The sensor is configured to monitor at least one of a frequency of dispensation of an air cleaner from an air freshener and a level of a contaminant in the airflow. The air cleaning system is configured to transmit a sensor signal to at least one of the air freshener and a user device to at least one of: recommend a frequency for air freshening, and adjust a frequency of release of the air cleaner from the air freshener.

A capsule of a volatile substance distribution system is configured for use with a base unit having a fan and an air outlet configured to direct air driven by the fan away from the base unit. The capsule includes a housing that extends along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end. The first end defines an inlet port and the second end defines an outlet port. The housing houses a volatile substance member. The capsule further includes an outlet seal member that seals and unseals the outlet port. The housing, when engaged with the base unit and with the outlet seal member in the unsealed position, is configured to receive the air from the air outlet that flows into the inlet port, past the volatile substance member, and out of the outlet port.

A device to protect a user from inhaling hazardous atmospheres including an insulated chamber having inlet and outlet. The chamber includes air heating means and air UV radiating means. The combined operation of the air heating means and the UV radiating means is configured for disinfecting the hazardous atmospheres. A cooling means is used for cooling the disinfected hazardous atmospheres. Wherein, the cooled disinfected hazardous atmosphere is then delivered to the user's breathing system.

A fog generator assembly includes a water vapor generator, a fragrance dispenser, and a mixing element fluidly coupled to the water generator and the fragrance dispenser. The mixing element is configured to mix a fog of water vapor from the water vapor generator with a fragrance from the fragrance dispenser to produce an aromatic fog.
