Sharp UA-PM50E-W Air Purifier - 306 m3/ h Airflow

Sharp UA-PM50E-W is a freestanding air purifier with a HEPA filter, Plasmacluster ion technology, and an insect-catching function. Its published airflow reaches 306 m3/h, while the recommended room size is up to 40 m2.

Three Filter Stages

The air path uses a pre-filter, a deodorizing filter, and a HEPA filter. Sharp's manual says the HEPA element can remove 99.97% of dust particles as small as 0.3 microns when air passes through the filter.

The unit also includes dust and odor sensors, an automatic mode, a sleep mode, and a Clean Ion Shower setting that runs for 60 minutes. The mosquito catcher combines UV light, airflow, a dark entrance area, and an adhesive sheet rather than insecticide.

Measured Size And Power

The manual lists dimensions of 394 mm wide, 281 mm deep, and 540 mm high, with a unit weight of 6.1 kg. That footprint places the purifier in the medium-room class while leaving a relatively narrow base for floor placement.

Power consumption is rated at 51 W in Max mode, 17 W in Medium mode, and 4.0 to 6.0 W in Sleep mode. Standby consumption is about 1.0 W, and the appliance is specified for 220-240 V, 50-60 Hz power.

Sharp's US subsidiary is Sharp Electronics Corporation, headquartered in Montvale, New Jersey. The US company lists Plasmacluster-equipped air purifiers among the products it delivers to American consumers, while the UA-PM50E documentation specifies a 220-240 V power supply.

Use Case And Limits

Against a conventional HEPA purifier without insect control, the UA-PM50E adds a dedicated mosquito-catching system and Plasmacluster ion operation. Its 306 m3/h maximum airflow and 40 m2 room recommendation define the practical size range more precisely than the feature list alone.

The model suits users who want particle, odor, and mosquito-control functions in one floor-standing appliance. The main limitation for US homes is electrical compatibility, because the documented unit requires 220-240 V rather than the 120 V supply used by standard US wall outlets.
