This article gives our answers to the most frequently asked questions about evaporative cooling.

Temperatures across Europe have been on the rise, with the last decade being the warmest on record. In fact, 2020 was the warmest year on record, 1.2°C warmer than the average year in the 19th century.

We had the pleasure of being featured on France 2’s 8 PM news program. In this documentary, we attempt to answer the question regarding the effectiveness of air purifiers against the coronavirus.

Our guide takes a look at OberA’s solutions for air control and purification. Ensure the health safety of your premises, by offering purified air to your customers and employees, with an air purifier effective against COVID-19.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each OberA product? Which anti-virus air purifier should a professional choose? What do public authorities recommend for the fight against COVID?

Ventilate to limit virus concentrations. Use forced ventilation with built-in high-efficiency HEPA H13 filtration. Use air purifiers with HEPA H13 or H14 filters. Discover our tips and explanations.

It is possible to analyze the CO2 and aerosols present in the air. These two factors are important in estimating the presence of covid in the air. Aerosols are the means by which viruses travel. The higher the aerosol content, the greater the means of virus circulation…

Is there a link between CO2 and transmission of the COVID-19 virus? All the answers to your questions about CO2 sensors in our guide.

Compliance with VLEP is an obligation for employers, governed by Articles L.4121-1 et seq. and L.4221-1 of the French Labor Code. Chemical risk assessment and VLEP regulations: we take stock.

Occupational exposure limit values (VLEP regulations) indicate the measures to be taken with regard to dust in the workplace. To help you, INRS provides information on prevention and protection against exposure to dust in the workplace.

Article R. 4412-4 of the French Labor Code defines occupational exposure limit values (VLEP) for chemical agents such as cobalt and its compounds. What are the TLVs for workers?

Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes are chemical compounds classified as CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction). What are the TLVs for workers?

Hexavalent chromium and its compounds are chemical substances classified as CMR (carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction): C1A, M1B, R2. What are the main substances? What are the TLVs and how can they be treated?

Certain chemical substances, alone or in mixtures, can be carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to human reproduction. These are known as CMR substances. These substances are classified on the basis of the danger they represent, and have been the subject of a European regulation since 2008 (n°1272/2008-Eur-Lex).

Obera designs equipment that complies with these OELs. Find out more about the Occupational Exposure Limits for styrene: its toxic chemical compound, the sectors concerned, the recommended OEL and possible treatments.

It’s our responsibility to be vigilant when it comes to our children’s health. Fortunately, in most cases, children and teenagers are mildly affected by Sars-Cov-2 and emerge unharmed, but the risks do exist. The main problem in schools, nurseries and kindergartens is the potential for the virus to spread.

Throughout 2020, restaurant market sales are down 38% on 2019, and footfall is down 35%. The period of the first confinement is logically the most catastrophic. The NPD Group declared that “71% of the market collapsed during the first containment period”.

Why use an adiabatic cooling system? How does it work, and what are its advantages? How do you choose the right industrial air cooler? Follow the guide!

How does an adiabatic cooler work? What are its advantages over conventional air-conditioning solutions? How to optimize the performance of your air-cooling system? We’ll give you the solution!

To reduce the risk of transmission of the Covid-19 virus, OberA has equipped the classrooms, canteens and refectories of numerous French schools and lycées!

CADR stands for Clean Air Delivery Rate. Translated, this is the clean air delivery rate. In simple terms, this is the maximum flow rate of the device multiplied by its efficiency rate on a reference particle size.

Discover our new Jumbo product, which has replaced our old OBAM product. Our small Jumbo dust collector retains OBAM’s small footprint and ease of use.

This is a reference value for assessing the level of exposure in the air that a person can breathe for a given period of time. They are expressed in the form of an airborne concentration for a given chemical substance and for a regulated time.

Air pollution is very harmful to our health. According to a study conducted by Dr Rob Beelen in the Netherlands in 2013, an increase of 5 micrograms per cubic meter in PM2.5 concentration increases mortality by 7%. Find out more about pollution risk factors.

Not all dust is harmful. Only the fraction of fine, or even ultrafine, dust is. Below PM10, dust is no longer captured by the upper respiratory tract (nose, larynx, pharynx) and migrates into the lungs, reaching the pulmonary alveoli.

What is a CRM (carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction)? Which products are concerned? Which industries are affected? Find out more about CMR in our fact sheet.

Dust, smoke, fine particles, chemical odors… Industrial processes generate numerous compounds that pollute your working environment. Find the complete guide to industrial air treatment to protect your employees and your facilities.

The proliferation of pandemic viruses over the last two decades has highlighted the need for protection and disinfection solutions and equipment that can be mobilized in an emergency. Discover portable prevention and disinfection solutions.

OberA has just delivered an ePUR30 air purifier to a global supplier of aluminum parts to treat aluminum dust during the finishing of extruded parts. The installation of the device has significantly reduced dust levels.

OberA has just delivered a DUSTOMAT 16M dust collector to a European company, an industrial subcontractor to the aerospace industry specializing in the application of composite materials, to combat the risks associated with exposure to aluminum oxide dust.

Organic dusts are just as flammable as metallic dusts. To minimize the risk of serious or fatal exposure, it is necessary to raise operator awareness and obtain equipment capable of capturing and properly disposing of these dusts.

Obera installed a 3000 m³/h Dustomat 4-24 ATEX dust collector at a healthcare establishment. The aim is to deal with the explosive and dangerous CMR-containing dusts produced during prosthesis manufacture.

OberA has just delivered an ePur100 industrial air purifier to a manufacturer of large machines, to protect operators from welding fumes. As operators were often mobile and in the air, they were already equipped with suction torches.
