Today’s world has intensified the need for healthy, clean environments. To address this need, Keystone offers ultraviolet germicidal lamps and paired ballasts that offer cutting-edge UV-C disinfection and sterilization to protect against viruses and bacteria.
The Keystone UV-C Advantage
The lighting industry has found that pairing between ballasts and UV-C lamps isn’t always dependable. Ballasts are not optimized to work with lamps, so pairing power supplies with lamps can lead to wildly differing outcomes in power output. Among the concerns:
- No national standard. There is no national standard for UV-C lamps, so products and their outputs vary widely.
- Indefinite terms. “Output” is a flexible term, as UV-C, which is part of the nonvisible part of the spectrum, doesn’t register in lumens.
- Uncertain pairings between ballasts and lamps. UV-C lamp output intensity (and therefore effectiveness) depends on the ballast driving it. Without a proper understanding of how a ballast is driving a lamp, there is a lot of room for uncertainty that can lead to insufficient disinfection performance, lamp failure, and/or solutions that are more expensive and larger than they need to be.
Why Keystone?
- No guesswork. Keystone has taken the guesswork out of the process of matching ballast to lamp by creating a chart of replacement recommendations, so consumers can easily pair a particular ballast with a specific lamp.
- A full line of lamps and ballasts. In addition, Keystone offers a line of products, including a full selection of lamps and coordinating ballasts, that provide the optimal solution for best performance.
- Products designed for disinfection. Keystone germicidal UV-C lamps and ballasts are intended for fixtures specifically designed for disinfection purposes using UV-C 254nm light sources, including those in water purification, HVAC air handling, food processing, clean rooms, and other general sterilization/disinfection needs.
What UV-C does
Ultraviolet light, which includes UV-C, is a widely used sanitization technology. UV-C components are used in advanced treatment technologies in water and air quality applications, including purification, sanitization, and disinfection.
- What is UV-C? UV-C is a portion of ultraviolet light on the spectrum from 200 to 280 nm.
- How does UV-C work? UV-C radiation has been proven to effectively inactivate various tested pathogens such as common viruses and bacteria. UV-C radiation damages the molecules of nucleic acids and proteins, which helps to destroy and/or render them harmless. UV-C has been shown to be an effective technology against coronaviruses, E. coli, salmonella, and listeria, among other organisms.
- What about COVID-19? Studies have shown that UV-C light can inactivate most SARS-CoV-2 virus particles, the microorganisms that cause COVID-19. Depending upon whether the virus is present in air or liquid or on surfaces, the process can take anywhere from 30 seconds to 25 minutes.
