SanificaAria 30, Sanifica Aria 200 and the Oxy modules are air treatment devices based on a UV-C emission source.
The scope of this project is to check the germicidal activity of the device against microorganisms that differ from each other in terms of resistance to UV-C light itself, verifying the microbial percentage reduction exiting the copy of the device tested.
The test is performed following the prescriptions, as applicable, of the technical norm ISO 15714:2019 Method of evaluating the UV dose to airborne microorganisms transiting in-duct ultraviolet germicidal irradiation devices.
Beghelli’s uvOxy® devices were tested with 3 different microorganisms:
The ultraviolet dose needed to inactivate 90% of test microorganisms is colored in purple in the histogram. Theoretically, it is possible to point out a list of microorganisms which, on the basis of literature data, can be inactivated by the same system, including coronavirus*.
The graph below show some of these microorganism (data are taken from ISO 15714:2019 – Annex C).
The result presented in this page are referred to only the copy of the device tested as received.
*The percentage efficacy on coronavirus is inferred basing on D90 dose tabulated in ISO 15714:2019 Annex C; the virus itself is not being tested.
