About Forbes Coronaguard

How Covid-19 Spreads

COVID-19 can easily spread between people, especially indoors and poorly ventilated spaces. When an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks loudly, up to millions of invisible virus particles are released into the surroundings via respiratory droplets, where they can remain infectious for days. While the larger droplets settle on all nearby surfaces, smaller droplets can remain suspended for up to 20 minutes in the air or up to 48 hours on surfaces indoors. Others can catch COVID-19 when these infected droplets get into their mouth, nose or eyes.

These spikes attach to the negatively charged walls of a host cell that forms a bridge that enables the virus to enter the host cell and thus, infects it.
As per research papers,* the technology to contain coronavirus lies in disabling this bridge - the S-Protein of the virus.

Forbes Coronaguard Powered By SHYCOCAN is suitable for all high-risk and essential service environments.

It also acts as a complementary solution along with the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), where necessary to reduce burdens of indefinite social distancing.

Coronaguard is a revolutionary virulence prevention device that attenuates & disables 99.9% of corona family of viruses and prevents it’s spread in the enclosed spaces.

The innovative technology ‘physically attenuates’ the homing mechanism on the virus and prevents infectivity. The technology is based on well-known principles of physics “Photon Mediated Electron Emission” (PMEE) that disables the S protein in the virus so that it cannot attach itself to human cells, thus preventing the infectivity.

FORBES CORONAGUARD POWERED BY SHYCOCAN attenuates the corona family of viruses. It simply disables it, from attaching and infecting the host cells.

The device is designed for continuous use, it is recommended to be ON for continuous protection. The power consumption is 30 W.

The CORONAGUARD does not use any chemicals. It does not ionize the air nor does it produce any ozone.

This product has been tested for its virucidal performance efficacy in India & international laboratories. The test results prove that the virucidal efficiency is more than 99.9% on corona family of viruses using suitable surrogate viruses as per USEPA recommendations.

  • IIT Guwahati – 100% attenuation of Avian coronavirus
  • IAPMO, India – 99.99% attenuation of MS2 Phage
  • LEI, Mexico – 99.9% attenuation of Equine arteritis virus

Yes, the product is tested for human & animal safety, electrical safety & environmental safety.

Human & Animal Safety (ISO 10993-5):
  • IIT Guwahati – Nontoxic to human Cells
  • University of Madras – Nontoxic to Animal Cells
Environmental Safety:
  • EVA Associates, Australia – No ozone emission
  • Shreis Scalene Therapeutics, LLA, US - No ozone emission.
  • SGS UAE – Meeting RoHS requirements
Electrical safety: Meeting CE Marking Class i requirements
  • UL - EMI – EMC Test conducted as per IEC 60335-1-2010 & IEC 61236-2012

Coronaguard should be wall mounted in the room away from the reach of children. This does not interfere with any electronic devices and is tested & cleared under CE Marking requirements. The product can be used in the air-conditioned rooms.

The device can be safely deployed in all environments inhabited by people, be it very large or small enclosed spaces.

The Coronaguard is currently available in one variant, which covers 1,000 Sq. Ft (10,000 Cubic ft). If the rooms are separated by partition / walls, you need to have separate units for each room.

The product has a Green indicator lamp in the front, this is an indication that the product is working to create safe zones in the application area.

No, the Coronaguard attenuates only the corona family of viruses in the closed rooms. It’s not air sterilizer to disinfect other microbial contaminations if any.

This product is a Plug & Play product with no consumable to replace. Hence there’s no service required, and it is maintenance free. However, the products should be cleaned regularly of any dust deposition on the fan or grilles that may accumulate over a period.

The Coronaguard shall be warranted against manufacturing defects and workmanship for one year from the date of purchase. Please refer to the terms of warranty for more clarity.

The Coronaguard attenuates only the corona family of viruses in the enclosed rooms. The air purifier purifies the indoor air – and removes the particulate matters, bad odor and the air borne microorganisms depending on the product configuration. Air Purifier depends on the air to be circulated through it for purification while Coronaguard can attenuate the corona family of viruses directly on the spot in the room.

No, this product shall leave no stains on your walls.

It does not kill coronavirus. It attenuates/disables the virus by neutralizing the charges in the S-protein.
