Winnetnews.com – Signify introduced its UV-C portfolio to consumers, in the middle of this year. To be at the forefront of professional UV-C innovation, Signify is here to help consumers effectively disinfect their homes from bacteria and viruses.
This product was introduced by Signify as a form of contribution in meeting the disinfectant needs of the community, in the middle coronavirus pandemic and new normal.
“This new table lamp can make a difference by helping to deactivate viruses (including SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19) and bacteria, to help keep our homes clean of harmful microorganisms,” said Rami Hajjar Country Leader Signify Indonesia, in the press release.
As is well known, the cleanliness of objects and surfaces in the house has a major impact on health, because there is a risk of transmitting the virus from the items we touch. An effective way to neutralize viruses and bacteria is through UV-C irradiation.
The UV-C table lamp is easy to use with a compact control panel and built-in voice guidance. Because UV-C rays can be harmful to the eyes and skin, this lamp is equipped with an integrated sensor that can detect human movement. If the sensor detects movement, the light will turn off.
Philips UV-C disinfection is said to be effective at disabling viruses, bacteria, fungi and spores that are harmful, but invisible in the home. The time it takes to disinfect depends on the size and type of surface of the room.
To ensure the room is disinfected effectively, the Philips UV-C disinfection table lamp uses a dosage that exceeds the required dose to inactivate most of the germs that have been tested against exposure to UV-C light. All bacteria and viruses tested to date respond to UV-C irradiation. In laboratory testing, UV-C lamps disable 99% of the SARS-CoV-2 virus with an exposure time of 6 seconds on surfaces.
