What is Upper-Room UVGI?

G.L.A.’s Upper-Room UV systems are powerful instruments
to disinfect the upper air layers within rooms. Because
they use parabolic reflectors, and non-reflective lamellas
they are able to create a germicidal zone of UV rays that
is strictly confined to the upper part of a room, leaving
the lower part of the room within safe levels. Natural or
mechanical ventilation within rooms ensures that the
contaminated room-air passes through the UV-C zone
and will be disinfected. This method is also called zone
irradiation or upper air irradiation.
Independent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness

of Upper-Room UVGI and it has become an important and
effective addition to other infection control measures.
Well planned and maintained Upper-Room UVGI wil help
prevent transmission of airborne diseases.

UV Technology
Ultra-Violet (UV) light is invisible to human eyes. It can be subdivided into three categories: UVA, UVB and UVC. UV-A from 315
to 400 nm UV-B from 280 to 315 nm UV-C from 100 to 280 nm. UVC radiation is known to break the DNA of bacteria, viruses
and spores. As a result, they are rendered harmless. No disinfection by-products (DBPs) of health concern are formed. UV
radiation can be used for multiple purposes in water and air treatments, but is primarily employed as a disinfection process that
inactivates micro-organisms without chemicals. The effect caused by UVC has been known for more that 100 years and a variety
of applications for disinfection are successfully being used around the globe.
