Care222® Filtered Far UV-C Excimer Lamp Module
Filtered Krypton-Chloride 222nm Technology
Ushio is proud to introduce the Care222® series, our line of filtered 222nm Far UV-C excimer lamp modules for microbial reduction applications.
Filtered Care222 modules can be safely used in unoccupied and occupied spaces without posing a health risk to humans when used within the current exposure limits recommended by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH®) or the requirements of IEC 62471. Exposure within the current ACGIH recommendations and IEC requirements allow microbial reductions using 222nm far-UVC light sources in occupied spaces. Recent studies indicate that higher doses of filtered UV light emitted from the Care222 modules pose a minimal health risk to human skin or eyes.
Features of the Care222 module allow customers to obtain 100% light output in less than a second, whereas conventional germicidal lamps start at only 50% output and take several minutes to achieve 100% output.
The featured Care222 12W B1 module contains 4 highly efficient 222nm excimer lamps and a patented filter that eliminates dangerous longer wavelengths of more than 230nm in an easy to install housing.
