Removing particulate matter
The technology appeals to the imagination: an electric field that attracts and removes harmful particulate matter from the air. StaticAir in Geldermalsen markets this patented technology in light fittings on lampposts (or other poles) that are hung in areas where there is a lot of particulate matter. StaticAir asked Spark to revise the existing design of their Pamares (Particulate Matter Reduction System) in various respects.
The new model must be affordable and easier to construct and install. The old, functional model that StaticAir worked with was very laborious in terms of pre-assembly and installation. In addition, the appearance was also, of course, a point of attention.
Integrated approach
Efficient transportation
More affordable
Product Architecture
The particulate matter filter basically consists of four dust collectors – elongated plates, each with a corona wire that generates the electric field under high voltage. The four collectors are mounted around the pole and fitted with slats to protect the corona wire.
Clever insights
By choosing for four instead of the original three collectors, the particulate matter filter is smaller, more compact and simpler to assemble and install. That was the first insight.
And there wasn’t just one insight. “In the end, we were able to design the particulate matter filter in such a way that it’s production only requires the injection-moulding of two plastic components. In addition, we have pre-formed the dust collectors, That way, they can be transported efficiently and they can be folded and subsequently mounted on the poles on the spot with minimal effort.”
“Spark’s technical ability, their fresh look and their broad orientation has been a positive surprise.''
