What is COBALT®?
COBALT® is a ceiling-mounted air purification system designed for dental practices, medical offices, and commercial spaces where floor space is valuable. Available in 2'×2' (430 CFM) and 2'×4' (1,171 CFM) configurations, it replaces standard ceiling tiles and requires no floor footprint. Each unit features dual turbo fans for consistent circulation, smart occupancy sensors that automatically adjust performance, and MERV 16 HEPA-RX filtration capturing 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns.
A ceiling-mounted design can be especially useful in environments where equipment, furniture, patient movement, or accessibility requirements make floor space a priority. By integrating into a compatible suspended ceiling grid, COBALT® provides air purification without adding another portable unit to the room. The 2'×2' model offers 430 CFM for applications such as individual dental operatories and smaller offices. The 2'×4' model increases airflow to 1,171 CFM for larger spaces, including open treatment areas and waiting rooms. This zero-footprint approach can also fit classrooms, laboratories, and other professional settings where clear pathways and unobstructed work areas matter. Both configurations use ceiling-level air circulation and dual turbo fans, while the appropriate model depends on room volume, occupancy, existing ventilation, and the air-change goals for the space.
An illuminated logo indicator alerts when filters need replacement. The optional HEPA Carbon Hybrid filter adds odor and VOC control for procedural environments.
Intelligent Ceiling-Level Purification
Dual Turbo Fans
Two powerful fans work in tandem to maximize airflow and ensure consistent circulation across the entire room—no dead zones.
Smart Occupancy Sensors
Proximity sensors detect room activity and automatically adjust fan speed. Empty room = energy saving. Occupied = full performance.
Filter Alert Indicator
The illuminated logo flashes when filters need replacement. No guesswork, no maintenance schedules to track—the unit tells you.
Zero Floor Footprint
In clinical environments, every square foot matters. COBALT® mounts directly into your ceiling grid, freeing up valuable floor space for equipment, patient flow, and wheelchair accessibility.
- No trip hazards — Nothing on the floor for patients or staff
- Wheelchair accessible — Maintains clear pathways
- Clean aesthetics — Blends with ceiling, not an eyesore
- Easy cleaning — Floor beneath remains fully accessible

2'×2' vs 2'×4' — Which Size?
Choose the right COBALT® configuration for your space and air-change requirements.
Square footage is a useful starting point, but it should not be the only factor when selecting a COBALT® model. Room length, width, and ceiling height determine total room volume, while occupancy, existing ventilation, and the desired air changes per hour (ACH) affect how much additional airflow may be needed. ACH describes how many times the volume of air in a room is filtered or replaced in one hour. A purifier’s CFM can be used with room volume to estimate its contribution to that rate. The 2'×2' model is designed for spaces such as individual operatories and smaller offices, while the higher-capacity 2'×4' configuration is better suited to larger waiting rooms, open bays, and similar areas. Facilities with multiple rooms, unusual layouts, or specific air-change requirements should confirm sizing before choosing the number and configuration of units.

Keep Your COBALT® Performing
Genuine replacement filters for optimal performance and warranty protection.
Maintaining unrestricted airflow starts with using the correct replacement filters for the unit. The standard H13 HEPA filter is designed for particle capture, while the optional HEPA Carbon Hybrid combines HEPA filtration with activated carbon to help control VOCs, chemical fumes, and procedural odors. The H13 HEPA filter typically lasts 12-18 months under normal use, while the HEPA Carbon Hybrid is generally replaced about every 6-9 months. Actual service life can vary with operating hours and air conditions, so the illuminated filter alert provides a useful reminder when replacement is due. After new filters are installed, reset the filter indicator according to the operation manual. Using the correct COBALT® replacement filters helps maintain airflow and filtration performance for the specific 2'×2' or 2'×4' model.

Everything you need to know about COBALT® ceiling air purification.
What's the difference between the 2'×2' and 2'×4' models?
The 2'×2' covers up to 861 sq ft at 70 W and fits a standard 24"×24" ceiling tile opening—ideal for individual operatories or small offices. The 2'×4' covers up to 2,152 sq ft at 250 W in a 24"×48" footprint, designed for larger spaces like open bays, waiting rooms, or conference areas. Both use MERV 16 HEPA-RX filtration with dual filter design.
How quiet is COBALT® during operation?
Extremely quiet. The 2'×2' operates at 22.5 dB on low—quieter than a whisper—up to 47.5 dB at maximum. The 2'×4' ranges from 30.6 to 51.9 dB. Both are designed for clinical environments where patient comfort and communication matter.
How often do filters need replacement?
The H13 HEPA filter typically lasts up to one year under normal use. The optional HEPA Carbon Hybrid filter, which adds odor and VOC control, should be replaced every six months. Neither filter can be washed or reused. The illuminated logo flashes when it's time for replacement.
Can COBALT® remove odors from dental procedures?
Yes, when equipped with the optional HEPA Carbon Hybrid Filter. The activated carbon layer adsorbs volatile organic compounds (VOCs), chemical fumes, and procedural odors. The standard HEPA filter captures particles but not gases or odors.
What ceiling type is required?
COBALT® installs into standard suspended ceiling grids (drop ceilings) with 15/16" T-bar. The 2'×2' replaces a 24"×24" ceiling tile; the 2'×4' replaces a 24"×48" tile. Professional installation is recommended due to unit weight (44-96 lbs) and electrical requirements.
What do the smart sensors actually do?
The proximity sensors detect room occupancy and automatically adjust fan speed in Auto Mode. When the room is empty, the unit runs at minimum to conserve energy and extend filter life. When movement is detected, it ramps up to maintain air quality during active use.
Ready for Ceiling-Level Clean Air?
For single-room or facility-wide projects, proper sizing should account for room dimensions, ceiling height, occupancy, existing ventilation, and the air-change target for the space. Because COBALT® installs in a suspended ceiling grid and the units weigh 44 to 96 pounds, professional installation is recommended to address mounting and electrical requirements. Facilities planning several units can request a quote for help selecting the appropriate configuration, planning coverage, and reviewing available volume pricing.
