Information about UV Intensity Monitor

UV Intensity Monitor

• The UV Intensity monitor has an LED display with easy-to-use menu options.
• The monitor displays details about the intensity, temperature & lamp hours.
• The sensors come with different diameters and varying sensitivity conforming to the power of the UV lamps installed in the unit.

The monitor allows you to set alarms that will give you a notification when the intensity or temperature levels go beyond the ideal range.

Sterilization is defined as the complete destruction of all microbial species. Science has not yet found a microorganism that is resistant to the destructive effects of the 254-nm germicidal wavelength. Success in the sterilization of water depends on the intensity & quality of Ultraviolet rays passing through it; this makes the UV lamp the most important component of a water disinfection system.  To ensure that the UV lamp is actually performing like it should, it is necessary to keep a tab of its irradiance.

Benefits of Submersible UV Lamps

UV Lamps

We import UV Lamps of different kinds from Light Source & Lightech. They are of different Watts, different lengths, Long life, high output, amalgam lamps, made of soft glass and hard (Quartz) glass with a single pin, bi-pin, four pin and mini bi-pin.

The submersible UV lamps as compared to the UV water sterilization systems’ lamps are used to treat water that is static and still in a closed space. For example, in storage tanks and other water treatment plants, water is just stationary and stored according to a specific capacity. This is the only Chemical-free method to disinfect water in storage tanks.

The UV lamps that are placed in the Stainless Steel reactors or UV chambers are used to treat water that has a flow rate, where water is constantly coming in from the source and after sterilization let out to be used for various processes in the industry. Water bottling plants, farming irrigation systems, kitchen in hotels etc. all have water constantly in use, thus perfect for SS UV sterilizers.

Things to know about UV Surface Sterilizer

UV Surface Sterilizer

Bacteria are found throughout the environment but they concentrate where a food source is available so it is common for raw food to get contaminated. Foods contaminated with pathogenic microorganisms usually do not look bad, taste bad, or smell bad. It is impossible to understand if the food is contaminated with pathogenic microorganisms without microbiological testing. Microbial growth is highest on foods like meat, poultry, fish & dairy products. Foods that are to be processed & packed are at a very high risk of being infected by bacteria especially in ideal conditions of warm temperature & presence of moisture. Packaging of food is a long process and thus providing ample time for bacteria to multiply grow.

Among the physical methods of food preservation, ultraviolet radiation has been considered as an alternative to thermal treatment for controlling the microbial growth. Fresh food products like vegetables can be processed using UV light as a germicidal medium to reduce the food-borne microbial load. Especially, when it comes to spices that need to be kept dry, UV technology is the only way to disinfect it and improve shelf life. UV-C light eliminates viruses, bacteria, moulds and odour on surfaces, by penetrating their membranes, attacking their DNA, preventing them from replicating. On surfaces such as conveyor belts, particularly in the meat and meat processing industries, UV light is used to provide continuous decontamination to the food as it passes through various processes. For environmentally friendly and chlorine-free products, the use of UV-C technology has increased. The Process is fast, simple and produces no heat or residues, and has no impact on the appearance or taste of food.

• Surface purifiers/disinfectants are critical in the maintenance of purity & quality of the environment in which food is produced, processed & packed
• Every single object that comes in contact with contents of the food/beverages/drugs has to be 100% pure
• Surface UV disinfectants take care of the purity of conveyors, slicing machines, blades, boxes, trays, caps, wrapping foils, lids etc. to avoid contamination of food stuff
• Bakeries, cold stores, dairies, packaging and transportation can maintain the food safety & standard rules by using UV Surface purifiers

Surface purifiers are also used for shoe racks, uniform cabinets (hospitals, food industries, laboratories), patients’ bed, clothes etc.
