Best Industrial Air Purifier in 2023

Last updated on January 17th, 2023

Industrial air purifiers must be durable, cover large spaces and effectively remove odors and other various airborne contaminants. On this page, I will review the best industrial air cleaners that you find useful for your commercial or public space.

Let’s take a look at them!

Enerzen O-777: Cheap and Powerful Odor Remover

Enerzen O-777 is the most popular industrial air purifier & deodorizer: it effectively removes nasty smells from areas up to two thousand square feet – whether it’s smoke, kitchen odors, mothball smell and other smells that are hard to get rid of with your ordinary air purifier.

Technically, this air purifier is a commercial ozone generator – it cleans the air from contaminants by producing ozone which is a powerful natural oxidant that destroys molecules that we perceive as “stinky”. The ozone is produced by the ozone plate which has a lifespan of ~5000 working hours. The replacement plate is cheap at around $12-13.

On the downside, you cannot be in the same while the Enerzen O-777 is working. As with any other ozone generator, you have to enter the space 30 minutes after the unit stopped working because high doses of ozone are harmful for humans and pets alike. You can check this article for more information.

When the Enerzen O-777 may come in handy? Here are a few situations:

• You do home cleaning and need a portable yet powerful air cleaner;
• You own a car and want to keep it clean;
• You own a small business and it needs to be cleaned from time to time from general odors;
• You need to clean large spaces from odors but do not want to spend much money on air purifiers.

Operating the unit is easy: set up the timer and leave the area and just wait until the time has passed. After you get back you won’t recognize the space as all smells will go away!

TRACS TM-1250: Best Industrial HEPA & UV Air Purifier

TRACS TM-1250 is a totally different kind compared to the previously reviewed Enerzen. This one is big, expensive and is meant to be placed in one area to constantly clean the air from various airborne pollutants, including tiny particles of dust, allergens and germs.

The unit utilizes a 3-stage air cleaning process which is backed by:

• Antibacterial Carbon Activated pre-filter that catches various odor particles;
• Large medical-grade true HEPA H3 filter. It is certified to remove particles as small as 0.3 micron at 99.97% efficiency. For example, bacteria particles are about 1 micron in size, pollen is about 10 micron while dust particles’ size ranges from 5 micron (road dust) to 2 micron (coal dust). In other words, Tracs HEPA filter can effectively catch almost all dangerous and harmful particles present in the air.
• Finally, the unit utilizes four UV-C lights to treat viruses and germs. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation is an effective way to kill viruses in the environment since the mid 50s. Even if a particle of virus goes through the air filter (some viruses are smaller than 0.3 micron) it will get inactivated by the UV-C bulbs.

In other words, this Tracs machine does everything you want from an air purifier: destroying viruses, catching dangerous pollutants and removing odors from areas as large as 9,000 square feet due to its powerful motor and fan that can circulate and clean large amounts of air. And all of that without releasing ozone!

There is nothing extraordinary when it comes to operating and maintaining this industrial air purifier. After you turn it on just select the speed (3 available in total) and that’s it! No more work is required from you and the unit will run continuously for 24 hours, 7 days a week.

Maintenance is also extremely easy: the only thing you have to do is to change both filters and replace UV-C bulbs when they burn out. Activated Carbon filter lifespan is about 3 to 6 months (depending on usage) while the HEPA filter can last long as 5 years! Although, if used constantly, the life is reduced to 36 months on average. Bulbs can last up to a year. All replacement parts can be found on the official Tracs website.

All in all, the Tracs TM-1250 is a durable portable industrial air purifier made in the USA for places that require a constant supply of air free of harmful particles, viruses and allergens. Best choice for schools, offices, laboratories, clinics, casinos, churches, hospitals and other commercial & industrial buildings.

XPOWER X-3780: Commercial Air Purifier & Air Scrubber

XPOWER X-3780 is a powerful commercial air purifier, scrubber & negative air machine that uses four filters (one washable filter, one pleated filter, one Activated Carbon filter and one HEPA air filter) to get rid of airborne pollutants such as dust, asbestos, pollen, pet allergens, odor and volatile organic compounds (industrial solvents, fuel oxygenates, chloroform, etc.). It can be effectively used in spaces up to 1500 square feet.

Similarly to the Tracs, maintenance of this air purifier means replacing the filters in time. XPOWER filters have a different lifespan, but on average you will replace them every year or so.

TruSens Z-7000: A Well-designed HEPA & UV Air Purifier

TruSens Z-7000 is designed to use in large spaces such as conference rooms, businesses, clinics, classrooms, beauty salons. The air filters are located at both sides of the air purifier and comprised of two combined filters: the honeycomb carbon filter with mesh pre-filter and the HEPA filter. The filters last for 12 months if used 12 hours per day.

What makes this air purifier unique, is a special pod that checks the air quality and transfers the data back to the air purifier which displays it in the top in the form of color rings and provides additional details on the number of particulate matter (PM) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

This air purifier was AHAM-certified for 805 square feet; however, it can clean the air in spaces up to 2000 sq. ft due to its dual-sided air filtering system.

AIRTHEREAL MA5000 Commercial Ozone Generator

AIRTHEREAL MA5000 is yet another ozone generator; it operates the same way as the previously reviewed Enerzen. There are two differences though: this one produces twice as less ozone and features a 2-hour timer instead of a 3-hour one.

Which one to get is your option: I’d pick the Enerzen, but some people prefer the Airthereal Ma5000.

IQAir CleanZone SL: Industrial Air Purifier

Lastly, there is IQAir CleanZone SL – an industrial air purifier with wood encasement for people who want to adhere to premium customers and keep their place well-designed. This air cleaner is made by the Swiss company IQAir – they have been producing air purifiers for decades and know what works best when it comes to air cleaning.

The CleanZone SL is loaded with two large filters: one HyperHEPA Plus filter to catch extremely tiny particles (dust, smoke, allergens) down to 0.003 microns and one gas filter to remove VOCs from the air.

Despite its powerful motor, the unit is extremely quiet – at the speed 1 it makes only 25 dBA whilst at the maximum the noise reaches only 51 decibels. In other words, people in the room won’t even notice the unit is working behind the scene.

However, for this excellent piece of technology, you will have to shell out some money – the price reaches as high as $10,000 per unit.

P.S. I also recommend checking Airpura air purifiers; Airpura is an established North American designer & manufacturer of commercial and industrial air cleaners and many consider them one of the best when it comes to air cleaning without the need to call in a technician.
