The Larson Electronics IND-CDL-SQ-10-FUVC-MP-1L-V1 Far-UV Recessed Square Light disinfects 99% of 

viruses, bacteria, mold and spores from ceilings in occupied areas. This eye and skin safe disinfection unit uses 

one 10-watt microplasma board that emits far-UV 222 nm germicidal light. Featuring an expected lifespan of 6,000+ 

hours, the unit is compatible with 120-277V AC, 50/60Hz.
