UVC light has been used as a common sterilization method for water, air and surfaces for quite some time. UVC lamps are nowadays found in hospitals, laboratories, offices and factories. The radiation of UVC lamps has a damaging effect on the DNA of microbes and thus kills viruses, bacteria and fungi. The harmful effect of UV-C radiation on human skin and the risk of eye damage from direct exposure prevents the use of unshielded UV-C lamps in the presence of people.
The use of UV-C light in BONECO air purifiers is safe because the radiation only affects the air that is in the unit and not the room in which the unit is located. The UVC lamps in BONECO air purifiers are placed in a special housing so that the radiation is concentrated only on the air stream. Thus, users are always optimally protected and never directly exposed to UVC radiation.
To help the process of fighting viruses and bacteria even more, we have equipped some of our devices with UVC technology. This helps to make the operation even more efficient and effective.
Improves the air purification function. Can damage the DNA of microbes and thus kill them. Works absolutely silently and energy saving thanks to LED technology.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight can be divided into UVA, UVB and UVC light. The natural UV radiation of the sun is not visible to humans. The different types have the following wavelengths:
The longest wavelength range of UV radiation, which reaches the earth's surface almost unfiltered. UVA radiation from the sun can penetrate the skin and is partly responsible for skin aging.
A large part of the UVB radiation from the sun is filtered out by the ozone layer of the atmosphere. Approximately 10% of the UVB radiation reaches the earth's surface and is the main cause of sunburn.
UVC radiation is particularly energy-rich and is practically completely filtered out by the ozone layer of the atmosphere. This radiation can cause skin and eye damage in humans and has a germicidal effect, but fortunately does not reach the earth's surface.
