Excess Moisture – A Key Challenge in Ventilation
In standard supply ventilation systems, areas of excessive moisture can form due to humidification sections, temperature fluctuations causing condensation, or debris accumulation inside ducts. Such conditions create an ideal breeding ground for microorganisms and pose a health risk.
UV lamps are among the most effective solutions: when properly installed, they reliably disinfect air even in damp conditions and protect equipment from pathogen buildup.
Why Humidity Matters
Excess moisture reduces UV effectiveness. Condensation can block ultraviolet rays and accelerate contact corrosion, lowering system performance. At relative humidity above 75%, the efficiency of UV radiation can noticeably drop. To counter this, special measures are required.
Hermetically Sealed Design – Key to Stable Operation
Using sealed UV lamps without exposed contacts provides:
- Protection against condensation.
- Consistent UV intensity during temperature fluctuations.
- Longer service life and higher reliability.
Such solutions make bactericidal sections resistant to harsh operating conditions, resulting in fewer breakdowns and consistent air disinfection.
Proven Performance
Studies confirm that even under high humidity, properly implemented ultraviolet disinfection reduces biofilm formation on heat exchangers and maintains clean duct surfaces—minimizing secondary air contamination risks.
Two Simple Implementation Options
- UV ventilation kit
Includes:- Ultraviolet light source.
- Electronic ballast.
- Mounting clips.
- Ceramic connectors with wires.
With this kit, installers can easily integrate UV lamps into existing ducts, converting standard ventilation into a UV disinfection system. A detailed step-by-step guide simplifies the process.
- UV sections for ventilation
A ready-made duct module equipped with UV lamps—ideal for those who prefer a plug-and-play solution without additional assembly.
Both options provide the same result: ventilation systems gain a new property—air purification and disinfection.
Conclusion
Ventilation systems with humidification or temperature fluctuations often create conditions for pathogen growth. Sealed ultraviolet lamps maintain disinfection performance and operational stability, making them a universal upgrade for installers and a guarantee of clean, safe indoor air for end users.
