The System, an advance in effective control of surgical smoke, features an ultra low penetration air (ULPA) filter with 99.9995 percent efficiency at trapping particulate matter as small as 0.12 microns. The device’s maximum air flow – how much air can be filtered through the system – is 30 percent greater than that offered by previous models, but it operates quietly, without contributing to the ambient noise in the O.R.
