Jenton offers environmentally-friendly, portable system that can inactivate SARS-Cov-2
Employers can help make their indoor spaces safer with Philips new UV-C air disinfection unit. Now being supplied by UV specialist, Jenton Group (www.jenton.co.uk), the portable, environmentally-friendly system is a powerful and effective way of disinfecting air in buildings. It provides well-controlled UV irradiance to inactivate the majority of bacteria and viruses, including SARS-Cov-2, which is circulating in the air inside the unit.
With Philips reporting that aerosols are the main cause of transmission of SARS-Cov-2, the new moveable air disinfection unit significantly increases the number of effective air changes in a room. Key to making the best use of UV-C technology, the infected air passes through the unit and is then expelled as clean air from the upper side.
Capable of disinfecting spaces up to 80m³ with test reports confirming a reduction of ≥90% within two hours, the Philips UV-C air disinfection unit offers a user-friendly interface with clear display and simple buttons, as well as quick and simple ballast and lamp replacement for easy maintenance.
Due to its compact size, the system can be easily installed in offices, schools, exhibition halls, production facilities, banks, airports, railway stations, hotels and sports arenas.
Incorporating well-controlled UV-C radiation, the unit can be safely used when people are present in the same space. It offers mechanical safety and germicidal effectiveness validated by independent scientific reports*.
