STERILSYSTEMS UVC air disinfection SteriWhite Air Q series
The STERILSYSTEMS UVC air disinfection SteriWhite Air Q-Series is a modular system for circulating air disinfection that achieves excellent results in hotels, restaurants, training rooms, waiting areas and therapy centers. These specialized devices in various performance levels impress with their high reliability, very quiet operation and effective inactivation of viruses, bacteria and fungal spores. Similar high-performance air disinfection systems such as the [STERILSYSTEMS Helios UV Series] also help to significantly reduce germ contamination and thus ensure improved overall room hygiene.
Properties and mode of operation
The Q series recirculating air disinfection system works with intensive UVC rays that specifically attack harmful microorganisms. This disrupts the structures of viruses and bacteria both on surfaces and in the ambient air, preventing them from multiplying further. The UVC low-pressure lamps inside the robust, powder-coated housing enable a photochemical reaction at a wavelength of 253.7 nm. This inactivates viruses (e.g. COVID-19 and influenza) and other pathogens by up to 99.99%. The device does not produce ozone and is designed so that no UV radiation is emitted. This means it can be operated safely in rooms where people are present.
In addition to the targeted killing of microorganisms, all models (Q115, Q330, Q600 and Q900) have a very quiet fan that ensures an even air flow through the sterilization chamber. As the noise level is below 40 dB(A) in some cases, these models can also be used in waiting rooms or meeting rooms. A built-in LED signal display indicates in good time when a lamp needs to be replaced, although this is rarely necessary with up to 16,000 operating hours.
Model variants and performance features
- Q115 with an air flow rate of around 115 m³/h
- Q330 with an air flow rate of around 330 m³/h
- Q600 with an air flow rate of around 600 m³/h
- Q900 with an air flow rate of around 900 m³/h
- Long-life UVC lamps with up to 16,000 operating hours
- Very quiet operation, between < 39 dB(A) and < 47 dB(A)
- Powder-coated sheet steel housing with secure UV shielding
- Power supply: 230 V / 50 Hz
Optional castors or flat brackets for wall or ceiling mounting mean that the technology can always be integrated perfectly into the room environment. The simple plug & play commissioning with 3 m connection cable and on/off button ensures convenience.
Certifications and standards
The devices have been developed in accordance with the relevant safety regulations for UV radiation. The sturdy sheet steel housing and the special light traps ensure that no UVC radiation escapes. Thanks to this design, the models are subject to the applicable DIN and CE standards and meet strict requirements for commercial use.
Examples of use
- Hotel and catering industry: In restaurants, catering areas, hotel lobbies or breakfast rooms, the recirculating air sterilizers ensure a high level of hygiene by effectively rendering airborne viruses or bacteria harmless.
- Waiting and reception areas: In doctors' surgeries, clinics or therapy rooms, the Q series helps to minimize the risk of infection through quiet and continuous operation.
- Training and seminar centers: Safe air disinfection is particularly important for larger groups who spend long periods of time in closed rooms.
- Communal areas in companies: In conference or break rooms, a high air exchange rate can effectively trap germs and reduce the spread of infectious diseases.
FAQs
How costly is the maintenance
?
The devices are very low-maintenance. Lamps rarely need to be replaced as the UVC lamps reach up to 16,000 operating hours. An LED indicator on the housing signals in good time when a replacement is required.
Can the device be used in rooms with people in them?
Yes, operation is safe in the presence of people, as the UVC area is encapsulated inside and neither harmful ozone nor escaping radiation is produced.
What needs to be considered when placing the device
Depending on the model, the sterilizers can be positioned variably, attached to the wall or mounted on the ceiling. It is important that there is sufficient air circulation in the environment so that the product can guide the room air evenly through the UVC field.
Can the device be used to combat SARS-CoV-2?
Yes, according to the manufacturer, inactivation rates of up to 99.99% have been proven in laboratory tests. The device is therefore ideal for reducing a potential viral load indoors.
What power supply is required
All models run on 230 V / 50 Hz. A three-meter power cable is included and enables quick commissioning in everyday life.
Conclusion
The Q series offers an extremely efficient, low-maintenance and quiet solution for continuous indoor air disinfection. The long-life UVC lamps, the secure housing and the flexible mounting options ensure reliable and user-friendly integration in daily operation. Anyone looking for a professional and cost-effective method of reducing viruses, bacteria and fungal spores will find a convincing solution for numerous industries here.
