Are You Getting The Correct Dose On Your PPE?

If you are using a UVC light-based disinfection system you are probably scrambling to deploy tools to combat the COVID-19 outbreak.

Increasingly hospitals and medical facilities are looking to disinfect their personal protective equipment (PPE) using UV light. Verifying the intensity of the light reaching the PPE is a critical step in validating that the correct UV dose is being applied to ensure proper decontamination.

To better assist you in your fight against COVID-19 and other infectious diseases, ILT has configured and calibrated systems especially for measuring light sources found in common UV germicidal and disinfection systems. Each of these meters comes complete with a calibrated detector, ISO17025 accredited and NIST traceable calibration certificate, and a rugged carrying case. Detectors are attached to cables ranging from 3' to 7' in length, allowing for remote measurements. Simply turn the meter on and start measuring!
