Hoenle recirculating air disinfection unit ULE2000
The Hoenle ULE2000 recirculating air disinfection unit ensures effective and continuous air disinfection in demanding environments. Thanks to its sophisticated UV-C technology and robust design, this device is particularly suitable for production rooms, packaging areas or warehouses where microbiological contamination must be minimized. Similar to the [Hoenle recirculating air disinfection unit ULE1000], this model also offers a compact design combined with high disinfection performance, making it an excellent choice for companies that value reliability and safety.
Performance features and design
This recirculating air disinfection system is designed for rooms where people work and sensitive goods are stored. Thanks to the fully shielded UV-C lamps and an integrated fan, the air is disinfected inside the housing without harmful UV-C exposure and then safely returned to the room. The combination of high UV-C output and sophisticated air routing reliably eliminates germs, viruses and mold spores, thus ensuring a clean working and storage climate.
The housing contains an extremely quiet-running fan, which also ensures that no disturbing draughts are perceived. As the upstream electronics are integrated and protected against water, the appliance delivers optimum long-term performance even in moisture-prone sectors such as meat and fish processing. An LED service display enables the operating hours to be monitored easily, making maintenance planning considerably easier. There is also the option of equipping the appliance with ozone emitters for additional odour neutralization - this not only reduces the germ load, but also noticeably reduces unpleasant odours.
Essential technical details at a glance:
- Various versions (e.g. ULE2000-2, ULE2000-4, ULE2000-6, ULE2000-4 EX)
- Housing made of V4A stainless steel for a long service life and high corrosion resistance
- Lamp: UV-C high efficiency with a service life of 16,000 hours
- Output between 100 W and 260 W depending on version
- Integrated fan with water-protected ballast electronics (IP54)
- 3 m connection cable including Schuko plug

As the device is supplied ready to plug in, installation is particularly flexible, especially when ceiling-mounted. If necessary, the UV-C lamps can be easily replaced using a screw socket. Thanks to its cylindrical design with diameters of around 300 mm and lengths of up to 1400 mm (depending on the model), it can be positioned in a way that does not disrupt the workflow in the production facility.
Certifications and standards
The manufacturer attaches great importance to high-quality materials and standard-compliant workmanship. The device is protected against dust and splash water in accordance with IP54, ensuring reliable operation even in challenging production environments. In many companies, compliance with HACCP concepts is also crucial; thanks to the reliable decontamination of the room air, this recirculating air disinfection system supports the fulfillment of corresponding hygiene requirements in the food industry. The UV-C lamps themselves are designed for industrial use and are characterized by a long service life and stable disinfection performance.
Application examples
- Production and packaging rooms: Where open food is regularly handled, the device helps to reduce the risk of contamination with bacteria and fungal spores.
- Meat and poultry crate warehouses: The spread of odor-causing organisms is significantly reduced, making handling and storage more convenient.
- Confiscate and cutting rooms: In areas where animal waste is produced, an ozone emitter also supports odour neutralization.
- Slicer rooms: In meat and sausage processing, clean indoor air makes an important contribution to significantly reducing germ contamination on slicers and open cutting surfaces

FAQs
How often do the UV-C lamps need to be changed?
The lamps have a service life of around 16,000 hours. Depending on the design and intensity of use, replacement is recommended after this operating time in order to maintain a consistently high disinfection performance.
Is odour neutralization possible?Yes, ozone emitters can be integrated as an option to reduce odors in addition to disinfection. This is particularly recommended for rooms with strong odors, for example in meat or fish processing.Does the appliance have to be installed by qualified personnel?
The appliance is supplied ready to plug in. Although no extensive prior knowledge is required, safe ceiling installation is recommended to be carried out by experienced personnel or in compliance with all relevant safety regulations.
How much maintenance is required
Maintenance is mainly limited to regularly replacing the UV-C lamps and cleaning the fan components. An LED service indicator signals when appropriate measures are required.
Which standards apply to personal protection?
Due to the integrated shielding of the spotlights, there is no direct contact with UV-C radiation. In addition, the device meets the IP54 protection class requirements and therefore contributes to safe use in workspaces.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a safe and efficient solution for room air disinfection in sensitive areas such as food production, packaging or storage, this recirculating air disinfection system is an excellent choice. The compact design, robust V4A stainless steel construction and powerful UV-C lamps guarantee effective germ reduction and an improved working environment. The system can be installed in just a few simple steps so that it fits seamlessly into existing operating processes and helps to maintain high hygiene standards.
