WellAir Launches FDA-Cleared Defend 400

The Defend 400 is an FDA-cleared Class II medical device that combines WellAir’s patented NanoStrike™ Technology with a triple-stage filtration system from Camfil® to optimize the health of indoor spaces

Nov. 17, 2021 - WellAir, the leading health technology company that provides indoor air disinfection solutions, is charting a new path forward for healthy indoor environments at a time when air quality has never been a bigger priority.

Backed by more than a decade of research and innovation, WellAir recently launched the Defend 400 (NV400), an FDA-cleared Class II medical device that is 99.9% effective at inactivating airborne pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2 proxy virus (MS2 Bacteriophage) and MRSA, bacteria, and fungi, and also purifies the air of particulate matter, volatile organic compounds, gases, and odors. 

COVID-19 has focused more attention on indoor air quality and has elevated the importance of safer indoor environments by reducing the risk of exposure to airborne pathogens. This is exactly what the new Defend 400 is designed to do.

This portable device expands WellAir's product portfolio, delivering powerful air cleaning in multiple device sizes. This product launch continues to demonstrate WellAir's passion for improving the quality of the air and surfaces each of us interacts with daily.

The Defend 400 features WellAir’s unique, patented NanoStrike™ technology – a transformational method of air disinfection developed by a team of scientists and engineers, which bursts airborne pathogen cells, rapidly inactivating them to help ensure they are no longer a threat of infection.

Unlike other technologies, NanoStrike’s effectiveness lies in its ability to inactivate nanosized pathogens on contact. The Defend 400’s four-stage pathogen inactivation and filtration process also utilizes medical-grade filters from Camfil® in order to capture bacterial debris, fine and large particles, VOCs, gases, odors, and impurities. See the filters in action.

The Defend 400 is ideally suited for healthcare settings but is effective in a wide array of indoor environments, such as schools and offices. 

As WellAir continues to innovate solutions to one of the world’s most pressing public health challenges – improving the air we breathe.

The Defend 400 is available now. Learn more about the Novaerus Defend 400.
