UV-C DISINFECTION EQUIPMENT - THE RIGHT PRODUCT IN THE RIGHT PLACE

How do the germicidal UV-C rays work? Ultraviolet rays are electromagnetic waves that are part of light. They are divided into three main wavelength bands and expressed in nanometers (nm). The strongest disinfection performance is achieved between 254 nm and 265 nm.

The germicidal effect of UV-C radiation extends to bacteria, viruses, spores, fungi, chimeras and mites. It destroys RNA and prevents viruses etc. from multiplying or infecting other cells. UV-C disinfection devices are energy-saving, work without the use of chemicals, have a long service life and incur low maintenance costs.

UV-C DOSE AND LOG REDUCTION

Each microorganism has a specific UV resistance threshold. The specific dose that must be delivered to achieve an adequate level of disinfection is expressed in "LOG REDUCTION": 1 log = 90%, 2 logs = 99%, 3 logs = 99.9%, and so on. We offer the complex calculation of the required radiation dose to our partners free of charge.

CONTAGION RISKS DUE TO AEROSOLS

On a selective basis, it makes sense to equip rooms with crowds of people such as offices, meeting rooms, workshops, break rooms, etc. with professional UV-C air purifiers.

 

GERUCHSREDUZIERT UND FETTFREI MIT UV-C

The tedious cleaning of kitchen fume hoods is massively facilitated with UV-C radiation. The cleaning interval can be extended from several times a year to up to five years. Ozone breaks down fats and reduces deposits in the ventilation duct. The advantage is that the ozone is converted back into oxygen within a few seconds and is therefore no longer dangerous. The environment and materials are spared. At the same time, the burden of unpleasant odors is reduced.

BIO-FILM AND ITS EFFECTS

Air circulation, temperature fluctuations and humidity allow microorganisms to combine with each other in complex ways and settle or accumulate all over surfaces inside the HVAC system in the form of an unpleasant biofilm. A biofilm of less than 5 mm can reduce system efficiency by up to 40%.

PMI LABORTECHNIK

Since 2012, PMI Labortechnik GmbH has been a competent partner and laboratory equipment supplier, specializing in UV-C disinfection solutions, and offers its customers professional advice, also on site. PMI Labortechnik also conducts training courses for ventilation/air conditioning technicians and planners. Mr. René Meyer ([email protected]) will be happy to provide further information.
