Dyson Airblade Mk2 - Features | Airblade.dyson.com

The Dyson digital motor V4 was seven years in the making - it's one of the world's smallest fully-integrated 1400W motors. It's the only hand dryer motor powerful enough to draw in 28 liters of air a second through a HEPA filter, and then dry hands in 12 seconds.

This long-life, energy-efficient motor is digitally-switched at 6,100 times per second, making the high compression fan spin 92,000 times a minute. There are only three moving parts, so there are no slip rings or carbon brushes to wear down.

Testing based on NSF Protocol P335 shows that most other hand dryers are much slower than their manufacturers claim. Many people give up when using a slow hand dryer. But damp hands can spread up to 1,000 times more bacteria than dry hands.

Testing based on NSF P335 proves that Dyson Airblade™ hand dryers are the fastest. The Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer dries hands hygienically in 12 seconds. Airblade technology™ combined with the Dyson digital motor V4 creates high speed sheets of air that scrape water from both sides of the hands simultaneously. It's the fastest way.

The Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer is engineered to last. It has been repeatedly tested for durability and resilience to physical and chemical abuse. Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryers have also been exposed to real-life environments to ensure that they can withstand the pressures of high usage.

With strong construction and robust materials, the Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer is suitable for high traffic, high-usage locations where vandalism can be an issue. And because it uses filtered sheets of 420mph air to dry hands, there is no heating element prone to wear and failure.

Most other hand dryers are unhygienic. They don't filter bacteria from the restroom air. They suck in dirty air then blow it back onto hands. The Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer uses a HEPA filter to remove 99.97% of bacteria at 0.3 microns from the air used to dry hands. So hands are dried using cleaner air, not dirty air.

Most other hand drying methods are expensive to run. Paper towels need restocking and disposal. Most other hand dryers are slow, and many use a heating element, so they're energy-hungry.

The Dyson Airblade V hand dryer costs up to 69% less to run than other hand dryers per year, and up to 97% less than paper towels.

The Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer has been approved by HACCP International as safe for use in the food and beverage industry.

"The technology addresses a number of unacceptable risks posed by hand dryers in the past. It's easy to clean and is a touch-free system. It also has a fast dry cycle. With the inclusion of a HEPA filter, these features combine to considerably reduce the risk of microbiological contamination and thereby meet HACCP international's food safety criteria."

Air in the Dyson Airblade™ hand dryer travels at 420mph through apertures the thickness of a human eyelash, so sound is inevitable. However, Dyson acoustic engineers have now significantly reduced the unpleasant tones using six Dyson-designed Helmholtz silencers.

Infrared sensors operate air to dry hands. No dirty buttons to press.

Sealed casing infused with antimicrobial additives to protect the product.

The Dyson Airblade Mk2 hand dryer comes with a 5 year parts and first year limited labor warranty.
