Mission Statement

To provide a range of air sterilisation products

capable of maximum efficiency
under a full HEVAC range of conditions
(i.e. air velocity, volume and temperature).

Further, to create a suite of products capable of

modular assembly to provide a practical yet flexible
total air sterilisation solution.

WHO declares Influenza pandemic
• In less than 8 weeks it has spread to 75 countries,
causing death in 9.
• 30,000 cases globally & 141 deaths.
• Figures are rising daily. (updated 11.6.09)

• Two weeks later its risen to 60,000 cases & 263 deaths
(update 29.6.09)

• It is the first flu pandemic in 40 years

- the last in 1968 killed about one million people.

SARS: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome

• In 6 weeks 5,500 people infected

• This grew to 8,096 infected cases
and 774 deaths in 4 months.
• Planes and hotels were empty,
resulting in losses over $100

Introduction

UVGI Systems of the UK has developed the most effective solution to

remove airborne pathogens in a single pass.

This analysis explains why UVGI Systems is more effective than

traditional UV solutions.

What determines the ability to kill airborne pathogens?

1. UV intensity
2. Dwell time (exposure)
3. Resistance of pathogen to UV irradiation
 UV intensity

The UV intensity is a result of the power of the lamp in combination with its
optimum field of irradiation –
The closer the pathogen passes to the lamp the greater the UV exposure level.

UVGI uses ultra high power UV lamps.

Traditional UVGI
Length (mm) 406 842
Power (Watt) 40 87
Yielding UV (Watt) 5.3 28

UVGI Systems lamps produce more than 5 times the irradiation of a

traditional UV lamp (as used in most UV sterilisation equipment or installations).
UVGI lamps create a 4 times larger killzone than traditional UV lamps

Dwell time (exposure)

In order to kill a pathogen, it needs to be exposed to UV irradiation for

a certain period within a consistant UV field.

Practical air volumes in HVAC installations are 0.8 m3/sec (1695 CFM).

Standard ducting at cross sectional size of 350 mm x 550 mm results in an

airspeed of 5.8 m/sec.

This means that a particle travels a distance of 1200 mm in 0.15 sec.

Objective:
To kill effectively airborne pathogens
in a single pass, maximising velocity
within practical HVAC applications.

 Summary
– Perpendicular lamp positioning
against parallel ASU 3000 configuration:
To match the performance of the ASU 3000 unit the following
equivalent lamp numbers are required:

Option 1: 55 No UVC lamps x 40 W

Option 2: 20 No UVC lamps x 48 W

Option 3: 12 No UVC lamps x 90 W

=
 Airborne UV “Kill rates”.

• HVAC airborne pathogen resistance higher than water

borne by factor of 4 to 10. (Dr kowalski 2000 & Lukiersh 1946)

• Leeds University tests show a 5 x’s factor to guarantee

sterilisation of 99.9%.

• e.g Tuberculosis
10,000 micro joules /cm2 for water borne UV kill rate.
50,000 micro joules /cm2 for air borne UV kill rate.

• UVGI ASU 3000 produces 70,000 micro joules /cm2.

 Summary cont
– Perpendicular lamp positioning against
parallel ASU 3000 configuration:
• Excess lamp power leading to more expensive running costs.
• Higher radiated heat output – add to cooling load of central station air
handler.

ƒ Additional cost for internal reflective liner to maximise 3 fold averaging

factor
(Reference paper: Kowalski 2000).

ƒ Higher maintenance cost due to increased lamp numbers.

ƒ Remote ballast / controls likely due to restricted space between lamps – To

increase lamp centres will reduce overall irradiation level thereby reduce
efficiency of steriliser.

ƒ Additional cost for safety interlocks to access doors on air handling unit to
shut down UV lamps.
 Summary cont
– Perpendicular lamp positioning against
parallel ASU 3000 configuration:
ƒ Additional costs for interconnecting wiring between lamps & remote ballast
location.

ƒ Dense grouping of low watt lamps (40W & 48W) creates higher velocity
through kill
zone thereby reducing overall dwell time –

ƒ To increase dwell time further lamp rows necessary.

ƒ Re-design of current stab-in product necessary to include both improved

lamp specification & associated ballast / controls upgrade.

ƒ Additional cost for safety interlocks to access doors on air handling unit to
shut down UV lamps.
