UVC Lamps for Disinfection Robots

UV disinfection robots have become quite a bit more popular in recent years as they are highly effective at eliminating germs and there is an increased need for sterilization in many environments. Autonomous roaming robots with germicidal UV lamps are used in the United States, Europe, Asia, and many other countries worldwide to help provide a safer environment for people. UVC robots are proven effective when used in addition to manual cleaning procedures to eradicate harmful viruses and bacteria with up to 99.99% efficacy.

UVC disinfection robots equipped with high-quality sterilization lamps emit UV wavelengths at precisely the right nanometer of 254 nm which is the most powerful germ-killing wavelength of UV radiation. These UVC robots are being utilized in many hospitals across the country. They can roam around a room and emit powerful UVC radiation which can eliminate harmful viruses and bacteria on surfaces such as countertops, hospital beds, bathrooms, and high-touch surface areas to quickly and effectively protect patients and staff.

UVC disinfection robots can be programmed to follow a particular path to operate in rooms when humans are not present, without human intervention. They can even go back to their charging station when they need to recharge, automatically helping to provide a cleaner and safer environment.

UV Food Irradiation Proven to Improve Food Safety

Ultraviolet (UV) light produces electromagnetic UV radiation which has known germicidal and sterilization effects. UV irradiation has many purposes and preventing foodborne illnesses is one important sterilization process that UV light provides to food processors with many health benefits to end-users. UV lamps which emit radiation in the UVC wavelength help to protect against harmful pathogens which can infest food products and keep food fresher longer. 

How Does UV Radiation Protect Food?

When food and beverage products are exposed to UV radiation, powerful germ-killing UVC energy improves the safety and condition of these items. Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed through chemical bonds which protects food without altering food quality and is completely harmless, proven to improve the safety of food and beverage items. Food processing with UV irradiation protects meat processing plants, juices, and beverage pasteurization, and extends the shelf life of produce.

UV irradiation also disinfects surfaces where food is prepared in food processing plants and restaurants around the world. UV radiation for food is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration, the FDA, and is also approved by the US Department of Agriculture, USDA. UV radiation improves food safety, prevents many foodborne illnesses, and preserves foods to last longer, extending the shelf life of various products without risk of disease.

What Types of Foods Are Protected with UV Radiation?

UVC germicidal lamps produce UV irradiation to protect a wide range of food and beverage products by providing the following benefits:

• Prevents infestation of insects in grains, vegetables, nuts, and fruits

• Prevents mold and mildew from accumulating on liquid sugar tanks

• Prevents onions, garlic, and potatoes from sprouting early

• Reduces risk of foodborne illnesses in poultry, meat, and seafood

• Prevents harmful bacteria and viruses such as listeria from developing on conveyor belts which is a serious issue for ready to eat food processors

UVC germicidal lamps are proven effective in food processing applications as well as many other types of sterilization and disinfection processes. UV sterilization lamps improve indoor air quality in public, commercial, industrial, and residential settings with UVC air purification systems. UVC lamps also remove harmful microorganisms and many water sterilization applications such as water treatment plants, pools and spas, Aqua sciences and many other water applications. Surface sterilization is important in many settings such as hospitals, restaurants, laboratories, and many others and is achieved with UVC germicidal lamps.
