2 in 1 - supply system and air cleaner. The 3-level filtration system purifies both the supply air and the air circulating inside the room. Suitable for allergy sufferers.

Description breather Tion 3S (Tion 3C) Standard

Supply cleaning plant Tion breather 3S is a new generation device. He combines supply system, which allows to provide air for up to 5 people, and an air cleaner. Moreover, the cleaning of both supply air and air circulating in the room is carried out with medical grade filtration. You do not have to switch the breather from one mode to another: a combined supply and recirculation mode is available. Breather body maximally soundproofed(noise level - from 19 dB). Perfect solution for ventilation in the apartment.

The Tion 3S breather is controlled from a remote control or a smartphone. Thanks to Bluetooth remote control the device can be hung out of the line of sight. Smartphone control is available if you have the MagicAir climate control system installed with your breather.

The main characteristics of the breather

• In mode supply ventilation breather serves fresh air from the street with closed windows thus eliminating street noise, dust, harmful substances and dirt.

• Removes almost all types of contaminants- dust, allergens, microbes, viruses, harmful gases, unpleasant odors, tobacco smoke.

• High level of air supply - up to 140 m 3 / h, thus one breather Tion 3C can provide fresh air at the same time 5 people on an area up to 40 sq.m. 6 speeds of work.

• Climate control allows warm up air to the set temperature and automatically maintain it.

• Low noise- 19 dB at the first speed, 29 dB - at the 3rd, 47 dB - at the maximum.

• Convenient control- Bluetooth remote control with informative LCD display. If there is a base station for climate control, control can be carried out remotely from a smartphone.

The device and principle of operation of the breather

1. Fan motor.

2. Fan impeller.

3. Fan snail.

4. Heater.

5. Adsorption-catalytic filter AK-XL.

6. E11 (H11) class high efficiency filter.

7. Primary filter G4.

8. Damper.

9. Prefilter.

10. Control button

Air from the street enters the breather through a hole in the wall. The air channel is protected by a heater, the slope of the channel prevents rain moisture from entering the device. At the entrance to the breather there is a damper. It prevents outside air from entering the room when the unit is turned off or in recirculation mode. Air is supplied to the room by means of a fan. If necessarysupply air can be heated. Air is cleaned inside the device.

Air filtration

Air purification in the breather Tion 3S Standard is carried out by a set of a prefilter and 3 filters:

1. Prefilter Delays large dust particles in recirculation mode and in mixed mode of operation.
2. class G4 delays coarse and medium dust particles, fluff, soot with an efficiency of 90% (for particles larger than 10 µm). It extends the life of the E11 filter. Replacement frequency ~ 1 time per year.
3. class E11 (H11) delays the smallest dust, allergens, bacteria, viruses, spores mold fungi with an efficiency of over 95%. This is the medical standard for air purification. Replacement frequency ~ 1 time in 2 years.
4. performs deep air cleaning odors, exhaust fumes, industrial emissions and smoke. Replacement frequency ~ 1 time per year. It can optionally be replaced with an AK-XXL high capacity filter.

Tion 3S operating modes

Three operating modes are available in the Tion 3S breather:

• Air supply;
• Recirculation mode;
• Mixed mode.

Fresh air mode

There are six air flow rates: 30/45/60/75/90/140 m 3 /h. The airflow rate is adjusted manually or automatically (if you have a MagicAir climate control system installed).

Air recirculation mode

Thanks to the recirculation function, the device cleans the air in the room from dust, pollen, allergens and harmful gases. During operation in recirculation mode, the duct damper closes the air channel, and air enters the device from the room and is cleaned. When switching to the recirculation mode, the heater is automatically switched off.

In recirculation mode, Tion 3S works the same way quiet, as in the supply mode, so it can be used around the clock. Unlike recirculators with ultraviolet light, the device can be safely operated in the presence of people in the room.

mixed mode

Mixed mode of operation is a mode in which air is taken from both the street and the room in equal proportions. The air is cleaned by a set of filters and, if necessary, can be heated to the temperature you set. Mixing outdoor and indoor air reduces power consumption for heating in winter time, and Tion 3C can be used without turning on the heating element.

Control

The breather is controlled by the following elements:

With their help, you can control the parameters of the device and change the settings according to your wishes.

Remote control

The remote control is designed for remote control of the breather in manual mode: turning the breather on and off, selecting the operating mode and speed, heating temperature, setting settings, etc. The Bluetooth remote control is equipped with an informative LCD display.

Control button

Using the control button, you can switch to / from standby mode, connect to the MagicAir base station and remote control. The control button has a color backlight that reflects the current mode of operation.

MagicAir

Breezer Tion 3S is equipped with a MagicAir control unit, and when buying an external unit, an upgrade of the device is not required (attention: if you want to purchase both the breather and the MagicAir base station, it is advisable to buy a modification Tion 3S Smart, which includes both devices - it will be cheaper) . Connecting the breather to the MagicAir system allows you to:

• MagicAir base station independently change the intensity of ventilation depending on the level of CO2 in the room;
• the user (using a mobile application) to set the supply air heating temperature and change the ventilation intensity.

Once connected to the MagicAir system, you can set the device to operate automatically.

Sound notifications

Sound notifications are used to ensure that you are sure that the automation of the device has processed the command given to it. For example, one beep means that the action has been completed, two beeps mean that the action cannot be performed at the current moment. At your request, sound notifications can be completely disabled.

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

Does the breather cool the air? What is the difference between a breather and an air conditioner?

The air conditioner cools the air, but does not ventilate the room (does not supply fresh air from the street for breathing) and does not relieve stuffiness when the windows are closed. The external unit of the air conditioner is needed to cool the coolant, from it to indoor unit only a thin tube with freon goes, and air from the street is not supplied to the room. The breather does not cool the air, but ventilates the room, supplying purified air from the street. The main function of the breather is to provide the necessary fresh air for breathing, to get rid of stuffiness with the windows closed. Thus, the breather and the air conditioner complement each other, allowing both to cool the room and supply fresh purified air from the street, getting rid of stuffiness.

What is the difference between a breather and an air cleaner, air washer and more?

Air purifiers and air washers do not provide an influx of fresh air, "chasing" the air inside the room. Depending on the level of the purifier, it may be better or worse at removing pollutants from the air, but it will be stuffy with the window closed. If you open the window, all the dirt and allergens from the street will pour into the apartment, as a result, the effectiveness of the cleaner will become barely noticeable against the background of the flow of dust and dirt from the window.
Breezer, on the contrary, does not “drive” the air inside the apartment, but purifies the street air, supplying it inside. At the same time, dirty air inside the apartment is replaced with clean air and forced out through a natural exhaust. Thus, the breather not only performs the function of a cleaner, but also does much more - it saves not only from pollutants and allergens, but also from stuffiness with closed windows.

Does the breather humidify the air? What is the difference between a breather and a humidifier?

The breather does not have a humidification function. It supplies air with the same absolute humidity into the room as it does outside. If the room is humid, and the street is dry, due to the operation of the breather, the humidity is normalized. A humidifier increases the humidity inside the room, but does not relieve stuffiness. If the humidity of the outdoor air is too low for you, then a humidifier can be used with the breather.
In what rooms is it better to install a breather?
The device is recommended to be installed in those rooms where people spend the maximum amount of their time, i.e. where they “breathe” the most: nursery, bedroom, living room. One appliance can serve one room.

Why is a breather better than an inlet valve?

The efficiency of the inlet valve directly depends on the operation of the hood. If the hood does not work well, then the valve will work poorly. Also, the valve has practically no cleaning and no heating. In winter, it supplies cold air creating drafts and can even freeze through. The Breezer also has low-noise fans, three-stage cleaning and climate-controlled heating. Thus, the Breezer will supply clean, fresh and heated air to the predetermined temperature into the room.

How to check the efficiency of the hood?

Very simple, open the window in the room and lean a regular A4 sheet against the exhaust outlet in the kitchen or toilet. The sheet should stick. If it does not stick, then the hood is not working properly.

Why can the extractor hood work poorly?

First, the exhaust duct may be clogged. It is often not possible to clean it. Secondly, the operation of the hood is provided by a pressure drop in the exhaust duct. This difference is provided by the following factors:
1. Temperature difference. When it is cool outside and the room is warm, the difference is good and the hood works well. When it is warm outside and the room is warm, there is no difference and the hood does not work well. In hot weather, the hood may even start reverse side and you will smell the smells that will come to you from the neighbors.
2. The height of the exhaust duct. Simply put, the higher you live, the worse the hood works. On the last and penultimate floors of the house, the hoods usually practically do not work.
3. Forced air injection into the room. This is exactly what Breezer provides. It creates excessive air pressure, which forces the air to move towards the hood, taking with it the pollution and odors that form inside the room.

Can the room be ventilated with an exhaust fan?

The exhaust fan is only effective if there is air flow. If you close plastic windows and turn on the fan, you will only get the effect of vacuum (like when an airplane takes off, it can even lay your ears), but the ventilation effect will be close to zero and you will not get fresh air. It can be provided by opening windows or by installing a valve, which will lead to the corresponding problems - drafts, freezing, street dust and dirt.
At the same time, for Breezer to work exhaust fan not needed, because The breather itself creates pressure, which will force the air to go into the hood.

Why is a breather better than an Aeropack ventilator?

Aeropack has no heating at all and has poor air purification (50% versus 99% for Breezer).

How often should Tion O2 be turned on?

It is recommended to use the breather around the clock. If there are people in the room, then they constantly “eat up” oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, which means that the influx of fresh air must be constant, like the breathing of people. If there are no people in the room, it is still recommended not to turn off the device: furniture, Decoration Materials and pets can constantly excrete harmful substances, allergens and odors. The influx of fresh, clean air from the breather will force these contaminants into the natural exhaust, so when you return to the room, the air will be clean and fresh. We recommend turning off the breather only for a period of long absence.

How many appliances do I need for my house, apartment or office?

The simple answer is one appliance per room.
A more detailed calculation can be made by the number of people in the room and by its area. According to SNiP 31-01-2003, 30 m3 of fresh air per hour should be supplied per person or, according to SP 54.13330.2011 - 3 m3/hour per 1 m2 of premises. The capacity of Tion O2 is up to 120 m3/hour, respectively, one Tion O2 unit provides fresh air for up to 4 people in one room up to 40 m2. As a rule, devices are installed in rooms where people are constantly present.

How is the breather installed and how difficult is the installation?

The Tion O2 Breezer is easier to install than an air conditioner. The main task during installation is to make a hole in the wall with a diameter of 132mm. Installation of the device usually takes about 1 hour and will not harm your repair. Eros installation teams use professional equipment for diamond drilling, which is connected to an industrial vacuum cleaner with water supply to wet the dust. This allows you not to leave dirt and dust after work.

Is it possible to install the device in a house with an insulated facade?

Can. When communicating with the operator, it is necessary to inform about the presence of a ventilated facade on the house and clarify its material. If it is a facing brick, then the installation is no different from the usual. If these are composite sheets, then it is only necessary to choose a place for the device so that the hole does not fall into the profile to which the facade sheets are attached. If it is porcelain stoneware, then there are 2 installation options: either install a ventilation duct "under the facade", without outlet to the outside, or drill through the ventilation facade, while the quality of the incoming air and the installation price will be the same in both options.

Is it necessary to coordinate the installation of the breather?

No, according to current building codes holes smaller than 200mm do not need to be approved. The hole is closed with a decorative grill from the street, so it does not spoil appearance building, as opposed to outdoor air conditioning units.

Does the thickness or material of the wall affect the ability to install a breather?

The breather can be installed on any wall - brick, reinforced concrete, wood, etc. at the same time, the installation cost will be fixed for any wall thickness.

I have a loggia behind the outer wall, how can I install the Tion O2 breather?

There are 3 options:
1. If there are no plastic windows on the loggia or their constant position in the ventilation mode is allowed, then you can install the breather so that it takes air directly from the loggia. This does not interfere with the flow of fresh air either in summer or in winter. In addition, in winter, even on an uninsulated loggia, the temperature is higher than the street temperature, which will allow you to spend even less energy on heating the air. This installation option is common in new houses, where the loggias are glazed already at the construction stage.
2. If there are sealed plastic windows on the loggia and / or the loggia is completely insulated, then two holes are made: one in the wall between the room and the loggia, the second - directly in the outer wall of the loggia. A flexible duct connects both openings, the air is taken directly from the street. In this case, the device is located in the room in such a way as to minimize the length of the duct.
3. If the loggia is fully insulated and connected to the room, then the hole is made directly on the partition of the loggia and the device is placed on the partition. In this case, it is necessary that the door to the loggia always remain open.

How much does the Tion O2 breather cost?

The breather in the standart configuration costs 27,900 rubles without installation, in the base configuration - 25,900 rubles, light - 21,300 rubles. The delivery set includes: installation with a cascade of filters (in the standart configuration) or with one f7 basic filter (in the base and light configurations), remote control, mounting template, instruction manual, warranty card.

How much does it cost to install a Tion O2 breather?

The cost of installing Tion O2 depends on the region. The lower bar recommended by Tion at the cost of installation is 4000 rubles.

How often do filters need to be changed?

Tion O2 Standard uses 3 filters at the same time: basic F7 (pre-cleaning), high-performance HEPA filter H11 and adsorption-catalytic filter. The recommended period for replacing a set of filters, subject to periodic cleaning of the base filter with a vacuum cleaner, is once a year. Eros undertakes to remind its customers of the possible need to replace filters after a period of time agreed with the customer.

How much do Tion O2 filters cost and where can I buy them?

The basic f7 filter costs 1590 rubles, the high-performance hepa filter is 1990 rubles, the adsorption-catalytic filter is 1590 rubles. You can order filters by calling 8-800-500-57-36 from any city in Russia or by leaving a request on the website

How much electricity does the device consume?

In the mode of operation without heating up to 40 watts. With a maximum heating power from -40 s to + 25 s - 1.3 kW. On average, energy consumption during the year will be about 100 kW per month.

Can Tion O2 filters be washed or vacuumed?

How noisy is the device?

At the first speed, the device works no noisier than an air conditioner, and this does not interfere with most people's sleep. The noise level of the second and third speeds does not exceed 40 dB (A), which does not cause discomfort for most people during the daytime. Therefore, at night it is recommended to use the first speed, and in the daytime - the second or third. The fourth speed (turbo mode) is designed to quickly ventilate the room and is usually used after turning off the device for a long time.

At what temperature does Tion O2 work?

The system operates at an air temperature at the inlet to the device from -40C to +50C. At temperatures below -40C and above +50C, the device automatically turns off the air supply from the street and closes the damper.

What is the warranty period for Tion O2?

1 year from the date of sale. The company "Eros" undertakes full warranty and post-warranty maintenance of devices. If the device fails, we will come and take the device for diagnostics and repair, and for this time we will install a replacement device for the client free of charge. Thus, our customers do not experience discomfort due to possible problems with the device.

What is the duration of the breather and what is it due to?

The standard operating life of the device is 5 years. However, this is largely a conditional figure, more important for the buyer's accounting for the possibility of depreciation and write-off of equipment. The actual service life is much longer. This situation is similar to cars - the standard service life for a car is about 6 years, while we understand that with careful handling and timely maintenance and repair, cars “run” for 50 years. Therefore, the breather will last 10 years or more, with careful handling and timely maintenance and repair.

Where to contact in case of breakdown / failure of the device?

The company "Eros" undertakes full warranty and post-warranty maintenance of devices. If the device fails, we will come and take the device for diagnostics and repair, and for this time we will install a replacement device for the client free of charge. Thus, our customers do not experience discomfort due to possible problems with the device.

Where is the device manufactured?

The breather was developed in the Academgorodok of the city of Novosibirsk: Producer: TION group of companies, Novosibirsk. Address: Russia, 630090, Novosibirsk, st. Engineering, 20. The main stages of the assembly of devices are made in China according to the manufacturer's documentation (GK TION) and under his control. The final assembly of devices, their testing and completion with filters is carried out in Novosibirsk.

The main difference between this unit and other competitors in its class is that Tion initially includes absolutely all the elements and functions of a full-fledged ventilation unit.
The second difference is the filter elements. The ventilator uses filters with the maximum possible surface area for this device, in other words, during operation, expensive filters will have to be changed much less frequently than in other air handling units. The only exception is, perhaps, in which the filters are as effective and have the same long service life as in Tion installations.
The third difference is that not every ventilator is equipped with a wireless control panel, which greatly simplifies the control of the air handling unit.

The principle of operation of the air handling unit Tion 3S

When the unit is switched on, the air damper opens ( 8 ) and through the hole located at the bottom of the installation housing, air from the street is sucked into the device.
Then the dirty air enters the preliminary dust filter ( 7 ), where it is cleaned of coarse dust and then goes to the HEPA filter ( 6 ) and then it enters the final filter ( 5 ), where it is cleaned of odors and molecular contaminants. After the air is completely cleaned of contaminants, it passes through the heater ( 4 ). The air then enters the fan ( 2 ) and completely cleaned and heated to a predetermined temperature, is fed into the room. The pre-filter (9) traps large particles and is used in two modes of operation of the ventilator: recirculation mode and mixed mode.

The unit can operate in 3 modes.

1. Recirculation mode when the ventilator takes air not from the street, but from the room in which it is located. In this mode, the air handling unit becomes a professional air cleaner.
2. Fresh air mode when the device completely draws air from the street.
3. Mixed mode when the ventilator draws air in equal proportions both from the street and from the room.

Using the control panel with a liquid crystal display, you can set the required settings and fully control the ventilator from a distance.

Control of the supply unit Tion 3S

Air handling units in any configuration are equipped with WiFi and Bluetooth modules. You can control the ventilator with the remote control included with each unit, or with your smartphone via Bluetooth using the application for:

android on Google Play and IOS on App Store

Thanks to the remote control, the unit can be turned on and off, set the required temperature for heating fresh air in winter period and completely turn off the heating in the summer. You can also adjust the intensity of air supply to the room and set the timer to automatically turn the ventilator on and off at a specified time. The display of the control panel shows all the set information, including the number of days remaining until the filters are changed. Read more in:

Tion 3S can be controlled using the MagicAir station.

MagicAir base station with CO2+ module

The MagicAir base station, together with the CO2+ carbon dioxide control module, constitutes a smart microclimate system. The base station allows you to connect up to 40 different devices. At the moment, these devices are Tion air handling units, but developments are being actively carried out in this area and soon it is planned to connect not only ventilators, but also air conditioners, humidifiers, etc. That is, this station will perform the functions of a smart home.

Today, by installing one station in any place convenient for you and several ventilators with CO 2 + sensors in each room, it becomes possible to control the air quality in each room. Having set the required CO 2 + concentration values ​​for each room, the base station will automatically turn on and off the air handling units, thereby providing ideal conditions ventilation in each room and significantly saving your money.

Communication between the station, air handling units and CO 2 + sensors is carried out via WiFi and does not require any wires, which allows organizing this automatic ventilation system even in already renovated premises. The MagicAir system is suitable for both Tion 3S and Tion O 2. Read more about the MagicAir base station here:

Air handling unit installation

The essence of the work of the breather is very simple. A hole of sufficient diameter is made in the wall of the house so that a medium-sized elephant can stick its trunk through it. A device is hung on this hole, which draws in fresh outside air, cleans it, heats it if necessary and supplies it to the room:

The effect of the breather is very pleasant - the room is ventilated all the time, as if the windows are constantly open, and the humidity level is high enough that there is no need for a separate humidifier. At the same time, the breather does not let in drafts, noise, or street dust, so we get all the benefits of fresh air, but without the disadvantages of open windows.

Of the minuses - the breather takes up space on the wall, the breather makes a little noise during operation, the breather is powered by electricity, which costs money. Filters, again, occasionally need to be changed to new ones. The cons do not outweigh the pros, so I recommend the device for installation:

Now about the new model of the breather (Tion 3S), which I installed a couple of weeks ago. To be honest, I doubted that the new model would be different from the old one, but there really are differences - both for better and for worse:

1. The main difference is a small box of MagicAir, which is hung on the wall or placed on a shelf. It controls all devices in the house via radio. This thing is configured in a few minutes, after which you can set the operating modes for all the breathers in the apartment and forget about them:

I once specified in the settings that the breather should turn on when the carbon dioxide content in the air exceeds 800 ppm, and now the breather only works at night when my lungs fill the bedroom with carbon dioxide.

Electricity, respectively, is also spent less. In summer it doesn't matter, because if the breather does not need to heat the air, it consumes only 18 watts, like a small light bulb. In winter, however, energy consumption is greater, at maximum power, when heated from -40 to +25 degrees, the power increases already to 1.45 kW, which is significant. For St. Petersburg (where the temperature rarely drops below -20 in winter), you can count on 300 rubles a month, on an average annual basis. MagicAir saves some of that money.

I also set a limit, forbidding the breather to run faster than the first speed. Thanks to this, the breather is always quiet and does not wake me up, even if it has to turn on at 3 am.

In my opinion, this is exactly how all smart home systems should work - once you quickly set it up, and then the smart home does everything on its own, without requiring attention from the owner. I repeat once again: there are no wires there, I connected the devices via a radio channel and forgot.

By the way, the old breather, Tion O2, can also be connected to MagicAir. In some modifications, there are already special modules for this, but in my breather, such a module will need to be ordered separately. This is my plan for the near future.

2. The old breather is easier. It is clearer, it can be removed from the wall in one movement to show the guests the hole leading out. Guests invariably look inside and admire the flow of fresh air.

The new breather, alas, is pressed against the wall with two self-tapping screws, so I don’t want to remove it without much need.

3. The new breather looks better, fits better into the interior. In addition, it has a compartment inside where you can wind an extra power cable so that it does not hang down and does not take up extra space on the wall.

4. The old breather shows directly on the screen how many days are left until the filter is replaced. The new breather has to go deep into the application for this information.

5. The old breather smelled like freshly unpacked equipment for the first few days. The new Breezer smelled nothing from the very beginning.

6. The new breather is quieter. The old breather was slightly audible even at the first speed, the new one at the first speed is audible only if you come close to it.

It’s not that that noise really bothered me, for my taste, moderate “white” noise is sometimes even better than total silence, especially since the maximum 32 decibels at first speed is something between a needle drop and a quiet whisper. However, since I undertook to compare, it should be noted that the new breather is quieter.

As a price for silence, we received hard foam spacers that take up the entire volume of the new breather. When changing the filter, they will have to be removed and then inserted back.

7. The new breather was installed faster, and it was installed by one person, and not two, like last time. It is clear that this is the merit of more qualified installers, and not a breather, but nevertheless, there is a difference.

8. The inlets of the old and new breathers are located differently. I hung the old breather from the bedroom to the study, and in the bedroom there was a fragment of damaged wallpaper, which was previously covered with an old breather. I masked this fragment with a MagicAir box.

Breathers also blow out air in different ways, the old one from the bottom, the new one from the top. From the top, in my opinion, it's better - fresh air is right under the ceiling and then slowly sinks down. However, in the office where I moved the old breather, the old version turned out to be more convenient.

9. The new Breezer (Tion 3S) has a remote control with a screen and a mount to hang it on the wall. The old breather (Tion O2) has a remote control without a screen and without a mount, it's not so convenient.

On the other hand, the remote control is needed only for those who do not have the MagicAir system, manual control is practically not used in the presence of automatic control: everything is configured once through the application on the smartphone, then you can forget about the breathers, they work independently.

Let me summarize

Our Skolkovo is often scolded - they say, nothing is being done there. The reproaches are not entirely fair; Skoltech still managed to breathe life into many projects. The MagicAir system was created exactly there:

I think MagicAir has great export potential. One of the advantages of Russian technology is convenient, intuitive interfaces, which is very important for smart home systems. Neither our Western partners, nor even Asian engineers, are able to make things really convenient.
