Indications for Use

The Aerobiotix AEROCURE-MD air purifier is a device intended for medical purposes that is used to destroy bacteria and viruses in the air by exposure to ultraviolet radiation. In addition, the device removes particles from the air via HEPA filtration.

Device Story

AEROCURE-MD is a free-standing, wheeled, flow-through air purification device; operates by drawing ambient air through a pleated pre-filter, an ultraviolet photolytic chamber containing germicidal UV lamps, and a 99.97% HEPA filter; destroys airborne bacteria/viruses via UV exposure and removes particulates via HEPA filtration; used in medical settings; over-the-counter availability; provides continuous air purification to reduce airborne contamination; benefits patients and staff by lowering potential exposure to airborne pathogens.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Single-pass microorganism reduction testing demonstrated >99.9% reduction of MS2 virus, B. atropheus, and S. epidermidis. Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing passed UL 507:2017 and IEC 60601-1-2 Ed. 4.0 standards. Particulate reduction performance was verified as similar to the predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Wheeled metal housing (74 x 62 x 178 cm); 120V/60 Hz power; germicidal UV lamps; 99.97% HEPA filter; pleated pre-filter. Compliant with UL 507:2017 and IEC 60601-1-2 Ed. 4.0. Clean air outflow 300-450 CFM.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in medical environments to reduce airborne bacteria and viruses via UV radiation and remove particles via HEPA filtration. No specific age or gender restrictions; intended for general hospital/medical facility use.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
