NIST-traceable ultraviolet disinfection device management illuminance measurement system
This is a dedicated illuminance measurement system for ultraviolet sterilization lamps used in hospitals and medical facilities for COVID-19 and other infectious diseases. Remote measurement is possible.
With the outbreak and spread of COVID-19, hospitals and medical facilities are increasingly required to use ultraviolet light (UV-C), which can inactivate most pathogens, to disinfect personal protective equipment (PPE). Checking the intensity of ultraviolet light is an important step in verifying that the appropriate dose of ultraviolet light is being delivered to ensure effective decontamination. International Light Technologies (referred to as ILT) has been developing and manufacturing various light measurement systems for 55 years. All meters come with calibrated detectors, ISO17025 certified NIST traceable calibration certificates, and a sturdy carrying case. The detectors are connected with cables approximately 1 to 2 meters long, allowing for remote measurement. The meter can be turned on and measurements can be taken immediately.
basic information
ILT's dedicated illuminance measurement system for sterilization lamps has everything necessary to verify the light output of antibacterial/sterilization/UV disinfection systems. Relying solely on the specifications provided by equipment manufacturers for UV light output is insufficient. It is essential to confirm the sterilization effectiveness of a system that is entrusted with patient health, ensuring it can completely inactivate viruses and bacteria and kill pathogens. We offer illuminance meters tailored to different light sources and applications, including types that cover the entire UV-C range, narrowband types with a central wavelength of 254nm, broadband types with a central wavelength of 270nm, and those for pulsed light sources. Additionally, UV spectroradiometers can measure the light intensity at each wavelength, which is crucial for validating equipment used in sterilization disinfection. As light sources age, the intensity of specific wavelengths may decrease. By measuring the actual performance of UVC disinfection systems, necessary adjustments can be made to understand the capabilities of the equipment, ultimately ensuring the health of patients and medical staff.
