Q What is germicidal UVC? A Germicidal UV (GUV) refers to using ultraviolet radiant energy to inactivate bacteria, mold spores, fungi or viruses. Wavelengths in the photobiological ultraviolet spectral band known as the “UV-C,” from 200 to 280 nanometers (nm), have been shown to be the most effective for disinfection, although longer, less energetic UV can also disinfect if applied in much greater doses. |
Q Can UV-C kill viruses as well as bacteria? A Yes, UV-C kills living bacteria and inactivate viruses. It can inactivate the SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for COVID-19 if illuminated by UV-C at the effective dose level |
Q What is the applications for UV light? A The UV lamp can be used in air, surface and water disinfection. |
Q Do we need a ballast for UV light? A Yes, a ballast is needed. the ballast provides a high voltage charge to ‘strike’ or ‘ionize’ the mercury. Then, once the mercury is ionized, the ballast reduces the voltage and amperage required to keep the mercury ionized and emit a stable stream of UV light. |
