HOW DOES UV DISINFECTION AFFECT?
The main factors to be considered for the correct use of UV sources are:
• radiating power
• exposure time
• distance
• emission spectrum
In order for the UV radiation-emitting device to be effective on pathogens causing disease,
İt is required to be used by considering the parameters above in the light of scientific / academic studies.
Energy of UV-C radiations are higher and more effective than UV-A radiations. Therefore, it allows shorter sterilization time. These devices need to be controlled by the presence sensors in order to be activated only when there is no one in the room.
UV-A radiations has lower energy than UV-C radiations. Therefore, it requires longer sterilization time. Sterilization should be performed in a controlled way with UV-A radiations at night, on weekends, holidays, certain weekdays when certain areas are closed.
