Hoenle disinfection tower DT
The Hoenle DT disinfection tower offers effective 360° disinfection of air and surfaces in sensitive environments. Similar to the [Hoenle DS 50], the use of this mobile device in hospitals, production halls and laboratories enables reliable germ reduction for a hygienically safe environment. Compared to many conventional cleaning devices, the tower impresses with its targeted UV-C disinfection, which kills a wide range of germs (including viruses and bacteria) and thus significantly reduces the risk of contamination.
Performance features and design details
This mobile system is specially designed to disinfect surfaces, ceilings and even electronic devices quickly and thoroughly. The UV-C technology creates a more sterile environment without the use of chemical agents and at the same time minimizes residues that are often undesirable in critical areas such as medicine or the food industry. In addition, a built-in motion sensor increases safety by switching the device off immediately if people enter the room.
Similarly equipped devices such as the [Hoenle DS 50] also have a robust stainless steel housing, but this tower develops a particularly strong intensity thanks to its integrated high-performance emitters. With its stable, tilt-proof design, the device is suitable for both fixed installations and mobile use.
Technical features
The most important technical features of both model variants are summarized below:
- Construction: stainless steel housing (V2A) with protective grille and splinter protection
- UV-C lamps: 12x UV-C lamps (model DT12 1000) or 8x UV-C lamps (model DT8 1500C)
- Power: 500 W or 700 W
- Operation: Timer (DT12 1000) or touchscreen module (DT8 1500C)
- Safety: 3D 360° infrared motion sensors, switch-on safety device, protective tubes
- Protection class: IP54
- Weight: 45 kg (DT12 1000) or 61 kg (DT8 1500C)
- Power connection: 230 V ±10%, 50-60 Hz
By consistently complying with the IP54 standard, the device is also protected against dust deposits and splash water. The spotlights have a service life of up to 16,000 operating hours, which is why the running operating costs remain comparatively low.
Safety, certifications and standards
For maximum personal safety, the disinfection towers are equipped with several sensors that trigger an immediate shutdown. These include 3D 360° infrared motion sensors that do not allow any blind spots. The strict safety requirements of the industry are met, as well as common international standards, so that the device can be used in both European and non-European markets. Thanks to its stability and low center of gravity, accidental overturning is virtually impossible.
Typical application examples
- Disinfection of hospital and care rooms: Ideal for beds, mattress covers and electronic devices to ensure a low-germ environment.
- Use in food businesses: Elimination of potential pathogens on surfaces such as tables, containers and production lines.
- Laboratories and research institutes: protection against contamination in sensitive research projects, e.g. in cell and tissue studies.
- Cleaning process in public facilities: Schools, nurseries or office complexes benefit from thorough UV-C disinfection, especially for frequently touched surfaces.
FAQs
How long does a disinfection cycle take?
The duration varies depending on the size of the room and the desired level of efficiency. With a timer or the touchscreen module, the exposure time can be set precisely to cover all relevant surfaces.
What happens in the event of a sensor trigger?
As soon as a person or movement is detected, the device switches off automatically. As soon as the area is safe again, disinfection can be restarted manually.
Do you need special protective clothing?
During the active disinfection process, no one is allowed in the room for safety reasons. Special protective clothing is therefore not required. There is no risk when re-entering the room later on.
Can the tower be used in different rooms?
Yes, thanks to its mobile base and robust castors, the tower can be easily moved from room to room. It is particularly suitable for changing locations in clinics, laboratories or production areas.
What needs to be considered when cleaning
The stainless steel housing is resistant to common cleaning agents. Any dirt can be easily removed with a mild disinfectant cleaner. The UV-C lamps themselves are well protected and only require a regular status test.
Conclusion
The tower described is a powerful solution for fast and thorough surface and room disinfection. Both model variants are solidly constructed and offer an efficient way to reduce germs in larger areas thanks to their UV-C lamps. Thanks to numerous safety functions and conformity with standards, the device is suitable for a wide range of applications - whether in clinics, in research environments or in hygienically sensitive production areas. With its flexible application options and simple operation, it combines a high level of safety with strong disinfection performance.
