Using Sanuvox UVC technology to reduce the propagation of SARS-CoV-2 virus

Using Sanuvox UVC technology to reduce the propagation of SARS-CoV-2 virus

Sanuvox UVC technology

  • UVC irradiation (254 nm) is known for its germicidal properties. By disrupting their nucleic acids (DNA/RNA), it inactivates the reproductive capability of biological pathogens (molds, viruses, bacteria).1, 2
  • Sanuvox in-duct units have been demonstrated to be up to 99,97% effective at inactivating viruses and bacteria in the air in a study conducted by the EPA and Homeland Security 3. Bacteria and virus tested in the study (B.atrophaeus, S.marescens, MS2) are known to be more resistant to UVC than SARS-CoV-2 virus. 4,5
  • Many engineering and health agencies (ASHRAE, REHVA, CDC) now recognize that airborne transmission plays a major role in the propagation of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. These agencies also recommend using UVGI as an effective method to mitigate the spread of the virus in indoor spaces. 6, 7, 8, 9
  • Because Sanuvox units are specified according to HVAC systems parameters, adequate UV output power is calculated using our proprietary software. As such, patented Biowall units can achieve the recommended 99% disinfection per pass regardless of air velocity.
