UV-C 254nm Peak Irradiation
ViKavach systems utilize low-pressure mercury vapor lamps engineered to emit concentrated electromagnetic radiation at a peak wavelength of 253.7nm. This specific frequency is optimized for high-efficiency absorption by microbial DNA and RNA.
- check_circle D90 dose requirements met for 99.9% pathogen reduction.
- check_circle High-output quartz glass sleeves for maximum transmission.
Technical Specification
Zero-Ozone Verification
Unlike standard UV generators, ViKavach utilizes doped quartz lamps that block the 185nm vacuum-UV line. This prevents the ionization of atmospheric oxygen, ensuring a safer workspace environment without the need for post-cycle venting.
Emergency Motion-Sensor Shutdown
360° PIR Matrix
Quad-zone passive infrared sensors provide 12m detection radius in all directions.
20ms Response
Redundant solid-state relays terminate power to UV lamps in under 20 milliseconds.
Audible Failsafe
An 85dB localized alarm triggers simultaneously with shutdown to alert personnel.
Safe Exposure Thresholds
Direct Exposure
UVC is harmful to skin and eyes. Direct visual or epidermal contact is prohibited during operation cycles.
Secondary Shielding
Glass and polycarbonate barriers effectively block 254nm radiation. Viewports must be certified UV-shielded.
Microbial Validation Data
99.99%
Log-4 Reduction
Confirmed efficacy against SARS-CoV-2, MRSA, and Influenza A within a 5-minute sterilization cycle at 2 meters.
