Irradiator Bactericidal

The bactericidal irradiator is designed to disinfect indoor air (mainly medical and children's institutions) by exposure to ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength of 253.7 nm generated by low-pressure gas-discharge mercury lamps.

Ultraviolet radiation destroys the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, making them unable to reproduce and spread infections. Irradiators are used to disinfect both air and indoor surfaces. They are installed on the ceiling or walls and turned on for a certain time necessary for disinfection.

The effectiveness of disinfection depends on the intensity of ultraviolet radiation, duration of irradiation, and distance to the irradiated objects. Correct use of bactericidal irradiators can significantly reduce the risk of the spread of infections in crowded places.

Bactericidal irradiators are designed to destroy bacteria and other microorganisms in a room. They are widely used in medical institutions, schools, kindergartens, as well as in industry and the food industry. The most common types of these devices are lamps with low-pressure gas-discharge mercury (they are also called bactericidal lamps).

A bactericidal lamp disinfects a room by exposing the air to UV radiation. Under the influence of ultraviolet rays, bacteria, mold spores and other microorganisms die. The device, of course, does not work as a cure for the flu or other infections, but it helps maintain clean and sterile air in the room. The bactericidal lamp is used both in hospital and at home, especially where there are small children or someone is sick.

It is important to use the bactericidal lamp correctly - leaving it on for a long time in the room is prohibited. On the contrary, it needs to be allowed to work for four hours after each turn on (two hours is enough if we are talking about a residential area). If you are using a portable model, it is advisable to turn it off completely before cleaning it. In general, the use of such lamps is safe if they are connected correctly and safety precautions are followed.

It may be worth noting that many manufacturers give their service life for long-life lamps. But this does not mean that they will stop working earlier. The service life largely depends on the operating conditions: for example, if used for a long time without interruption, the life of the lamp will be greatly reduced.
