DEVICE DESCRIPTION
UV-DIRECT ....H-NX
series includes a UV-C lamp lodged inside a shaped case of small size, entirely made of stain-
less steel and with polished aluminum screen, to increase performance also reflecting the proportion of UV-C which
should be dispersed in the direction opposite to that useful. The UV-C lamps, with emission peak at 235.7nm.
(nanometers), have a strong germicidal power against all organisms (fungi, bacteria and viruses).
The shaped case consists of a box of stainless steel AISI 304, within which a watertight Aluminum channel is located
containing all the electronic power supply, with degree of protection IP 55.
The UV-C lamp can also be protected by a grid of stainless steel AISI 304 (option). The unit comes complete with a
cable 3x1 mm, without plug for power supply.
OPERATION
The UV-DIRECT series can be installed in any type of environment to obtain deep disinfection of air and surfaces, even
those that are difficult to reach with traditional cleaning systems. When the lamp is ON there is a strong reduction of
microbes present in the ambient air and on the surfaces reached by UV rays. For example, 8 mins. at a distance of 3m
from the device, there is a 99% reduction of bacteria Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella,
Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, etc.
Thanks to the natural circulation of the air, even the microbes located in hidden areas are continuously pulled toward
the area of the U.V. rays so that their overall level decreases progressively.
Use is allowed when there is no personnel present or if contained within adequately screened areas. The device must
be switched on for 2 ± 3 hours during the hours of work breaks; for example, by means of a programming clock, night
operation can be managed in the hours immediately prior to the entry of the operators, to allow entry in a freshly
disinfected site. Operation can also be managed by means of appropriate power units that, especially in case of
installation of various devices, can manage other operations, such as:
•
Power timing
; it is possible to regulate the duration of treatment by means of a regulatable timer.
•
Managing entries
; a security system turns out the lights in case of entry of staff.
•
Remote and local alarms
in case one or more lamps switch off, due to wear, a spy light will light up on the front
panel and it will be possible to use a contact to signal the failure remotely.
•
Counter
to manage the proper replacement of lamps.
BENEFITS AND ADVANTAGES
DEEP AND CONTINUOUS
DISINFECTION
This device can be switched on continuously without people being present (i.e. during the night for 2-3 hours). The dis-
infection of the air, the machinery, and everything that is contained inside the room allows beginning the work day in
ideal hygienic conditions. In this way, the level of microbial load in one site is maintained constantly low.
PHYSICAL ACTION AND ECOLOGICAL PROTECTION
Treatment with UV-C rays is purely physical, always allowing treatment with the same efficiency; there is no danger of
overdosing with UV rays in the air. In contrast, many chemical treatment methods involve the use of products that are
risky and difficult to biodegrade, with consequent hazards to human health; besides, the use of chemical products, in
contrast to UV-C rays, could develop resistant microbial forms.
PRACTICALITY AND ECONOMY
Treatment is immediate and ready to use. Maintenance is minimal with low costs of both energy consumption and of
maintenance.
IMMEDIATE EFFECT
Effective treatment (99.9% bacteria reduction) takes just a few minutes.
NO CHEMICAL/PHYSICAL CHANGES
Treatment is cold and dry; it causes no organoleptic or qualitative changes in the food.
NO DANGER OF DISPERSION OF GLASS
With the special UVLON® protection, there is no danger of dispersion of glass fragments resulting from any breakage
of UV-C lamps.
