![]() Zero hospital-acquired infections is almost unheard of. If you are only using the emitters in the operating and procedure rooms 5 days a week for a maximum of 8 hours per day, you can anticipate a 4 year life span. The life span of our Steril Aire’s UVC Emitters® operating 24 hours per day, 7 days per week in an HVAC systems, is roughly 9,000 hours or one year. The UVC-sterilized operating rooms are equipped with motion detectors and contact detectors in the doors to ensure the doors are closed and the rooms unoccupied when the UVC lights are operating.Į-CO can equip your hospital with two and sometimes even three layers of Steril-Aire’s UVC protection.The In-Ceiling UVC disinfection system is evenly and strategically spaced in the ceiling for maximum coverage to eliminate shadowing and deliver pathogen-lethal UV dose.UVC light is a proven disinfection technology-given the appropriate intensity and/or exposure time to achieve adequate UV dose. It uses UVC spectrum of ultraviolet light to penetrate cell walls of microorganisms, damaging DNA to prevent replication.Therefore, cleaning must remain an important part of terminal room disinfection. Recent studies suggest that that UVC disinfection may be more effective when used after traditional cleaning protocols. ![]() While not meant to replace existing cleaning protocols, ceiling-mounted Steril-Aire’s UVC devices can help support a comprehensive decontamination approach and improve or complement existing manual application methods for cleaning and disinfection.
