Overview

What is the RPS 600S?

Platinum Air Care’s RPS 600S is a portable air purifier. It works in multiple stages, helping to disinfect airborne bacteria, viruses, and microorganisms while removing particulates from the air, to improve the indoor air quality in your home or workplace.

The RPS 600S is a 6-stage air purifier system. It is designed to be beautiful, with contemporary styling on the outside, sophisticated technology on the inside, and powerful airflow performance throughout.

The RPS 600S cleans and rotates the air effectively for both large rooms and small rooms. Our calculator works out the exact air changes per hour (ACH) for your room size.

How it works

How the RPS 600S cleans the air in six stages

The air quality is improved and cleansed in six stages, from the permanent pre-filter to the negative ion generator.

  1. Stage 1

    Pre-filter

    This first-line anti-bacterial filter is a permanent filter that traps large particles.

  2. Stage 2

    Electrostatic precipitator collection cell

    The lifetime warranty cell captures airborne particles as small as 0.01 microns in size. In the ionizing section of the electronic cell, billions of microscopic particles become electrically charged as they pass through the powerful electric field. The collector plates immediately attract and collect these charged dust and dirt particles.

  3. Stage 3

    Volatile organic compound (VOC) filter

    This activated carbon filter absorbs and reduces volatile organic compounds such as odors, chemicals, gaseous pollutants, and smoke.

  4. Stage 4

    Dual ultra-violet lights (UV)

    The UV sterilization chamber helps to reduce or kill bacteria and viral microorganisms, as well as other harmful contaminants.

  5. Stage 5

    Photo-catalytic filter

    The powerful UV light is reflected throughout the chamber, coming in contact with the photocatalytic filter. This powerful combination quickly and efficiently amplifies the effectiveness of the UV lights.

  6. Stage 6

    Negative ion generator

    Negative ions help make the air feel cleaner and fresher. The ionizer has its own on/off button, so you can run the RPS 600S with it or without it.

What it removes

What the RPS 600S removes from the air

Combined, the six stages capture and purify up to 99.99% of particulates.

Its filters reduce or remove pollutants such as odors, smoke, dust, pollen, mold, allergens, pet dander, pet hair, viruses, bioaerosols, nitrous oxides, and any other airborne pollutant capable of passing through the RPS 600S, all of which are commonly found in the air of your home or workplace.

Dust, pollen, and pet dander are the things most people react to, so less of them in your air can only help.

Multi-stage air purifying technologies

The electronic cell and ultra-violet light PCO technology combine to remove airborne microorganisms. The RPS 600S destroys harmful pollutants, creating clean air.

Better performance than older models

Compared to older models, the RPS 600S includes an extra ultra-violet lamp, improved airflow, lower power consumption, and stronger structural integrity. Combined with the photocatalytic filter chamber (composed of titanium dioxide), this increases its capability to reduce or destroy bacteria, microorganisms, and viruses using UV-PCO technology.

Features

Beautifully portable, loaded with features

The RPS 600S is designed to take up minimal space, yet deliver whole-home and business performance. With six stages of air purification in one cabinet, the RPS 600S is the perfect option to target key areas quickly, or for those of us who live or work in places without the option for forced-air filtration.

  • Simple controls

    With a touch-sensitive power button, the RPS 600S is easy to use.

  • Timer options with automatic shutdown

    Timers can be set to limit machine run time (2-hour, 4-hour, and 8-hour options).

  • Optional UV light and negative ionizer

    Easy on/off buttons allow you to run the RPS 600S to suit your preference.

  • Remote control included

    Change fan speeds, turn it on or off, or set the timer function easily by remote control.

  • Brushless DC fan motor

    Quiet operation with powerful performance. The RPS 600S is capable of moving 648,000 cubic feet of air per day, enough to exchange the air in a 2,000 sq. ft. home with 8 ft. ceilings an astounding 40 times per day.

  • Performance indicator LED lights

    Easily see your current settings, with a filter change and cleaning reminder.

  • Easy to maintain, with long-term savings

    Compared to HEPA air purifiers, filter replacement costs less, because the electronic cell is permanent and washable.

  • UV bulbs: once a year.
  • Electronic cell: clean it with Platinum Cell Cleaner each time you change the carbon filter, or more often for the best particle capture.

Questions

RPS 600S air purifier FAQ

What is the RPS 600S?

The RPS 600S is a 6-stage portable air purification system for your home or workplace. Air passes through a permanent pre-filter, an electrostatic precipitator collection cell that captures particles as small as 0.01 microns, an activated carbon (VOC) filter, dual ultra-violet lights, a photocatalytic filter, and a negative ion generator.

How big a space can the RPS 600S clean?

It moves up to 648,000 cubic feet of air per day, enough to exchange the air in a 2,000 sq. ft. home with 8 ft. ceilings 40 times per day. Its fan runs at 235, 340, or 450 CFM. Our air changes per hour calculator works out the exact figure for your room.

Does the RPS 600S have a HEPA filter?

No. It uses a permanent, washable electronic cell instead, so the only parts you replace are the carbon filter and the UV bulbs. For a portable with a HEPA H13 filter, see the MedicAir® Pro. Read our comparison of the RPS 600S and portable HEPA air purifiers.

How often do I change the carbon filter and UV bulbs?

Change the carbon filter twice a year for effective odor control, three times a year for everyday use, or four times a year for the best odor control (recommended for smokers, or areas with a lot of chemical odors). The UV bulbs need replacing once a year. Order filters and UV bulbs from our online store.

How often should I clean the electronic cell?

Every 3 to 6 months for non-smokers and once a month for smokers, and at least each time you change the carbon filter. How often depends on the number of occupants, pets, and smoke. Our step-by-step cleaning instructions show how, and Platinum Cell Cleaner is the formula our technicians use.

How loud is the RPS 600S?

Under 55 dB. Its brushless DC fan motor gives quiet operation with powerful performance.

Can I turn off the UV lights and the ionizer?

Yes. The UV lights and the negative ionizer each have an easy on/off button, so you can run the RPS 600S to suit your preference. The included remote control changes fan speeds, turns the unit on or off, and sets the 2-, 4-, or 8-hour timer.

Where can I find the RPS 600S manual?
