Hoenle recirculating air disinfection unit ULE1000
The recirculating air disinfection unit is preferably used when indoor areas such as production areas, cold rooms or medical facilities need to be reliably cleaned of germs, odors and potentially harmful microorganisms. Thanks to the integrated UV-C technology and a coordinated air flow, the device offers a particularly effective disinfection performance. This clearly sets it apart from other systems in terms of performance and range of functions: Thanks to the protected UV-C emitters, neither people nor food are directly exposed to the radiation, which is extremely important in sensitive areas such as laboratories, ripening rooms and doctors' surgeries. Similar application concepts can also be used with the [Hoenle recirculating air disinfection unit ULE500], which can be used as an alternative or supplement in smaller rooms if required.
Reliable disinfection and important features
This device is designed to disinfect air without disturbing draughts. Its robust V4A stainless steel construction makes it corrosion-resistant and ideal for environments with high hygiene requirements. The integrated fan guides the swirling air past the UV-C light source, where germs, bacteria and viruses are inactivated. A particular advantage is the reliable shielding of the UV-C lamps, meaning that the device can also be used safely in the vicinity of people.
The most important technical data at a glance:
- Dimensions: 1000 x 127 x 176 mm
- Lamp: 1 × UV-C high efficiency (service life 16,000 h)
- Power consumption: 40 W
- Operating voltage: 230 V ±10 % (50-60 Hz)
- Protection class: IP54
- Material: stainless steel V4A
In addition to the integrated fan, there is an LED service display that provides information about operating hours and reminds you in good time when the lamp needs to be replaced. A version with ozone emitters is also available for special requirements. This version also neutralizes stubborn odours in sensitive areas such as changing rooms and storage rooms. Anyone wishing to test similar ozone functions will find comparable features in the [Hoenle HV20 room disinfection unit], which was also specially developed for odour neutralization.
Certifications and standards
The device complies with the current CE directives and meets important DIN-EN standards that guarantee safe and efficient use. In particular, the IP54 protection class housing and the high-quality V4A stainless steel finish ensure that a consistently high disinfection performance is achieved even in humid or demanding environments
Examples of use
- In small production rooms to reduce the spread of bacteria or fungal spores and thus improve process hygiene and product quality
- In laboratories where the lowest possible bacterial load is required and simple integration into wall or ceiling areas is needed
- In cold rooms to reduce the growth of typical food-related germs such as listeria and molds - ideal for meat or dairy products.
- In catering kitchens to keep the air clean and protect both staff and sensitive food from contamination.
- For odour neutralization purposes in changing rooms or recreation rooms, using optional ozone emitters to break down unpleasant odour particles.
FAQs
How often does the UV-C lamp need to be changed?
The integrated UV-C lamps have a service life of up to 16,000 operating hours. Depending on the duration and intensity of use, it is advisable to replace the lamp after the specified lamp hours have elapsed to ensure a consistently high disinfection performance.
How time-consuming is the installation?
The device is supplied ready to plug in and can be flexibly mounted on the wall or ceiling. The compact design and sophisticated mounting concept make installation and commissioning a breeze.
Is use in the presence of people permitted?
Thanks to the shielding of the UV-C light, it is absolutely safe to use while staff and customers are present. An integrated fan also ensures a quiet, even air flow without draughts.
Can odours of any kind be neutralized?
The device works with UV-C rays as standard to kill and reduce germs. For the effective neutralization of strong odours (e.g. in changing rooms or warehouses with strong-smelling substances), the variant with ozone emitters is recommended.
Are there any additional operating or maintenance costs?
Apart from the usual electricity costs, there are only minimal maintenance costs. Thanks to the LED service indicator, you can see in good time when a lamp needs to be replaced. Otherwise, the appliance scores points with its durable stainless steel housing, which keeps follow-up costs to a minimum.
Conclusion
The ULE1000 provides specialist companies, laboratories, restaurants and medical facilities with a reliable solution for reducing airborne germs and odors. The sophisticated design, robust stainless steel construction and optional ozone emitters make the device the ideal choice in many areas. Thanks to its simple installation, integrated fan and service indicator, the system guarantees long-lasting efficiency and effortless handling - a worthwhile investment in long-term hygiene and safety.
