UV surface disinfection is used to kill germs and prevent the spread of bacteria and fungi. For example in the packaging industry, uv disinfection equipment is used to provide an effective and efficient disinfection of packaging materials. Another example is the food industry that uses UVC to provide a longer shelf life for food products. These are just a couple of examples of where uv surface disinfection is used. The success of uv surface disinfection will vary according the type of the material to be disinfected. This relates to both the type of germ (e.g. bacterium coli and their stains) and to the texture of the surface. Disinfection can only occur if the germs see the UVC. This means that the texture of the exposed surface must not be too coarse.
The UV Tunnel has been developed by Integrated Conveyors to serve as a conveyor irradiator. This can be used for example in applications such as airport security check zones. The UVC chamber will significant reduce the micro-biological and virological contamination of surfaces and packages on the conveyor or production line. The chemical free disinfection process is carried out in this safe, and light shielded UVC chamber
