UVC Germicidal Lamps Benefit Many Industries

The powerful germicidal effectiveness of Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been known for over 100 years, although UV disinfection is becoming a hot topic in the midst of the pandemic. UV lamps are designed to emit the most effective wavelength for killing viruses and bacteria at 254 nanometer (nm). 

UV light at 254 nm is proven to kill harmful pathogens, bacteria and viruses including super viruses. Ozone lamps emit UV radiation at 185 nm and are utilized in water and air sterilization applications as a proven sterilizer and natural deodorizer.

UV Air Sterilization

UV air sterilization systems provide clean and sterile air to protect people from airborne illnesses including bacteria and viruses. UV air purification systems installed in HVAC units protect employees in businesses, patients in hospitals, employees in manufacturing facilities and many other applications.

Industrial air purification systems are required to meet municipality air emission regulations. Industrial air sterilization helps businesses meet air quality requirements with low cost, no labor and long lasting sterilization. UV air purification provides many benefits to commercial, industrial and residential environments such as:

  • Public buildings
  • Industrial manufacturing
  • Hospitals
  • Nursing homes
  • Schools
  • Day cares
  • Hotels

Germicidal UVC lamps instantly kill bacteria and viruses by quickly penetrating and altering the DNA so that they cannot replicate which makes them harmless.

UV Surface Sterilization

Germicidal lamps provide significant benefits to many industries including effective sterilization with cost-effective operation. UV sterilization lamps operate 24/7 with no labor costs and no harmful chemical use. Some industries which benefit from UV surface sterilization include:

  • Hospitals
  • Nursing homes
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Medical devices
  • Dinner buffets
  • Grocery stores
  • Restaurant kitchens

UV sterilization lamps used in these industries provide valuable health protection to patients, customers, employees and the public.

UV Water Sterilization

UV lamps have been used to sterilize and purify water in many applications with high efficacy and many cost efficient benefits. UV lamps quickly eradicate harmful pathogens in many water applications such as:

  • Ballast water treatment for ships
  • Wastewater treatment plants
  • Drinking water applications
  • Pools and spas
  • Water life and sciences
  • Fish hatcheries

UVC lamps and ozone lamps are providing safety to consumers, employees and the public in these industries and many others. UV radiation is proven to eliminate harmful bacteria that chlorine does not, eliminating bacteria, harmful and invading microorganisms in many water applications.
