Cost-Effective Solution to Degradation Control of Artefacts In Museums, Libraries and Archives
In museums and other “preservation environments”, temperature, humidity, particulates and gaseous contaminants cause degradation of priceless artefacts/objects. Of these, the most destructive are gaseous contaminants e.g. sulphur dioxide, ozone and nitrogen dioxide.
Concentrations of gaseous contaminants in these “preservation environments” need to be maintained as low as attainable. This can be accomplished through the use of various dry scrubbing air filtration media employing the processes of physical adsorption and/or chemisorption.
The source of these contaminant gases can be:
- Artefacts and archival materials themselves
- Materials and activities associated with restoration and conservation
- Automotive or industrial emissions migrating from the outside atmosphere
- Employees and patrons
In the presence of moisture, these contaminants react vigorously with the electronics and damage them. Thus, eliminating moisture is also becoming a necessity, which can be effectively controlled by Bry-Air Compact Dehumidifier.
Gas Phase Filtration System – The Most Effective Way of Removing Airborne Molecular Contamination
Bry-Air Gas Phase Filtration Systems protect electronic equipment and devices from the threat of abrupt failures due to corrosive gases. It reduces downtime by removing corrosive gases through the process of adsorption and chemisorption. It is designed to maintain the ANSI/ISA-71.04-2013 standard, IEC standards and various other environmental standards followed by electronics manufacturers.
These GPF systems also neutralise odourous gases and make the environment comfortable for humans.
Bry-Air: A Step Ahead, Always
Bry-Air is the only Gas Phase Filtration Company in India having its own R&D and Testing Lab for granular media and chemical filters. Backed by world-class technology and systems, the laboratory is capable of testing the performance of impregnated/non-impregnated loose granular media and impregnated/non-impregnated air cleaning devices such as chemical filters, under one roof. The tests are conducted as per ISO/ASHRAE Standard 145.1 and BSR/ASHRAE Standard 145.2/ISO Standard 11155-2 guidelines. The core objectives of the tests are to assess the performance and efficiency of loose granular sorptive media and chemical filters in any particular application.
