INTRODUCTION TO UV TECHNOLOGY
The sun produces a broad spectrum of light, including a portion invisible to the human eye called Ultraviolet. This ultraviolet light has a wavelength shorter than that of visible light and is generally subdivided into UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C. While Near-UV is not technically within the ultraviolet spectrum, it shares certain useful germicidal properties. Short-wave ultraviolet light, such as UV-C (100nm to 280nm), damages DNA and disinfects surfaces with which it comes into contact. Fortunately for us, the sun’s UV-C light is absorbed by the earth’s Ozone layer, protecting us from its harmful effects.
Man-made UV-C technology was developed to harness the sanitizing/germicidal properties of UVC and has been around for over 100 years. UV-C Light destroys the ability of bacteria and germs to multiply by damaging their DNA structures and deactivating their reproductive capabilities. Our products allow our customers to use these potent effects to their advantage by targeting and neutralizing germs and bacteria. Not only is this method cost saving for consumers but when operated correctly, UV-C Light can kill up to 99% of germs and bacteria, such as Salmonella, Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Influenza Virus A H3N2. This also includes reducing odors caused by bacteria. The next generation of clean provides a no-contact chemical-free approach that is environmentally friendly, reusable, and sustainable.

TO MAXIMIZE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF YOUR UVC DEVICE
bacteria; Staphylococcus Aureus (ATCC6538), Escherichia Coli (8099), Salmonella Typhimurium (ATCC14028), and the Influenza Virus A H3N2. To increase the level of neutralization, place the light over the item/surface at the minimum recommended distance for a longer period. Products will still be effective when distance is increased but will require a longer exposure to the UV light to neutralize germs. When used as directed, the following results will be obtained at the given distance and time:
Optimal Use
For maximum disinfection (over 99%), the light should be positioned at 6 inches away from the surface for one 15-minute cycle for bacteria or positioned at 3 inches for one 15-minute cycle for influenza.
Optional Use (recommended for bacteria only)
When the light is positioned at 24 inches we recommend running three 15-minute cycles, the percentage of antibacterial neutralization should reach over 70%. For greater disinfection rates at this distance, please run additional cycles
