Compact Footprint
UV-C LED Benefits
Enables disinfection directly at point of consumption™
Overview
UV-C LEDs and advanced electronic controls allow for a much smaller footprint compared to traditional UV systems. This lends itself to a deeper embedding of UV-C LEDs into processes requiring disinfection.
Details
Solid-state UV-C LEDs will always have a footprint advantage, given the nature of high-power density of LED technology. From a structural standpoint, UV-C LEDs are smaller and offer higher ultraviolet power densities than mercury-based UV lamps, meaning one can concentrate more light in a given area without the aid of external optical components and at a very small footprint.
In addition to power density advantages, a move to digital disinfection™ drastically reduces the overall footprint of UV-C LED systems as lamp drivers and advanced controls are incorporated into a small electronic board along with the UV-C LED.
Benefits
UV-C LEDs allow for truly distributed disinfection directly at the point of consumption and can be added to any water distribution device or system. The form factor of UV-C LED disinfection has created entirely new markets for UV disinfection allowing this technology to be embedded in products and processes where microbial contamination may be a concern.
Less space required for unit and ancillaries
More design freedom to implement UV disinfection
Less labor required to install
Fewer components for spares inventory
Action
The extremely small footprint of UV-C LED-based systems has enabled them to be incorporated directly in Point of Use devices, faucets, and appliances. With our PearlAqua Micro™ system, you now have the freedom to integrate UV disinfection while maintaining your original product design.
