The Lumenizer™ 300 Disinfection System

Who developed the Lumenizer™ 300 disinfection system?

Lumenizer 300 filtered far ultraviolet disinfection technology was developed by Lumenlabs, LLC. Dedicated to creating a healthier future, Lumenlabs, LLC is a global company with R&D centers in the United States and China featuring a synergistic wealth of advanced technological, manufacturing, supply chain management, and marketing expertise.

How does the Lumenizer 300 disinfection system inactivate viruses?

The Lumenizer 300 system emits far ultraviolet light through a krypton chloride excimer light source, using a patent-pending nano-level band-pass filter to emit pure 222nm far ultraviolet rays for disinfection. Lumenizer 300 filtered rays deactivate the DNA or RNA molecular structure in bacteria, sporophytes, and viruses. Disinfection is achieved as the pathogen loses activity and cannot regenerate.

What are the advantages of Lumenizer 300 technology versus traditional disinfection applications?

The Lumenizer 300 system emits pure 222nm filtered far ultraviolet disinfection that effectively inactivates harmful microorganisms in the air and on surfaces. The Lumenizer 300 can be used safely and continuously in human environments including crowded indoor spaces. Conventional ultraviolet UVC sterilization (254nm), used extensively in hospitals and surgery theatres, cannot be used in human environments because they can cause skin cancer and eye damage. Air purification disinfection equipment offers low efficiency only inactivating harmful airborne microorganisms with no effect on pathogens attached to the surface of objects and people. Chemical disinfection is labor intensive requiring continued applications, leaves chemical residues, and can be harmful to the human body.

What are the product advantages of the Lumenizer 300 disinfection system?

Harmless to humans and animals, Lumenizer systems provide continuous high efficiency disinfection. Designed for a variety of indoor environments, the Lumenizer 300 is fully automatic, easy to install, and requires no special use conditions.

Is Lumenizer 300 technology patent protected?

Lumenlabs, LLC has its own patent portfolio to protect product innovations. Currently, the Lumenizer 300 is patent-pending. These patents focus on the modular design of replaceable light sources, artificial intelligence management, far ultraviolet disinfection, light distribution, and design.

What kind of technology is used by the Lumenizer 300 disinfection system?

The Lumenizer 300 system uses a krypton chloride excimer lamp as the light source, with a patent-pending nano-level band-pass filter ensuring that the pure 222nm far ultraviolet light emitted effectively inactivates viruses while providing personal safety. A band-pass filter is critical for ensuring the safe use of Far-UVC. Without the filter, the light source will allow the emission of harmful bands – one of many Lumenizer technological advancements.

Is the Lumenizer 300 disinfection system safe?

The Lumenizer 300, and other Lumenizer filtered Far-UVC technology, uses a krypton chloride excimer lamp as the light source, and its central wavelength is 222nm far ultraviolet light. At the same time, it filters harmful wavelengths of ultraviolet light through a patent-pending nano-level band-pass filter, ensuring that only pure 222nm far ultraviolet light is emitted. The Lumenizer 300 lamp has an integrated design of the light source and filter, is permanently bound, and undergoes multi-channel automated testing before leaving the factory to ensure the use of this device is safe for humans.

Is all Far-UVC safe?

No, not all Far-UVC is safe. To be safe, Far-UVC must be FILTERED to eliminate harmful wavelengths from the light source. All Lumenlabs Lumenizer disinfection system products are FILTERED.

What is the effective coverage and disinfection rate of each Lumenizer 300 lamp?

Far UVC disinfection rate is determined by the output from the source, distance, and time. Other factors including pathogen load, airflow, and air quality can affect the disinfection rates. With average or typical indoor environments, the effective coverage area of each Lumenizer lamp is 13ft x 13ft (4m x 4m). At 1.5ft (0.5m) away from the light source, usually, the breathing layer, a 99.9% disinfection effect can be achieved in 10 seconds. At 5ft (1.5m) away from the light source, usually, the active area and the surface of many objects, 99.9% disinfection can be achieved in 1.2 minutes. At 8ft (2.5m) away from the light source, usually, on or near the ground, 99.9% disinfection can be reached in 3.4 minutes. For more information, visit the Lumenlabs Safety Page.

Can the Lumenizer 300 lamp achieve instantaneous disinfection?

The disinfection efficiency is based on the irradiation intensity and environmental conditions. A certain number of Lumenizer 300 disinfection fixtures can be deployed to achieve the effect of instant disinfection at the rate of 99.9%. Under normal circumstances, however, a Lumenizer 300 device can instantly reduce the virus concentration within the range of action, effectively reducing the infectivity of the virus. Even if there is a virus present, it is not infectious.

Does Lumenizer 300 meet certification standards?

The safety level is EXEMPT (internationally compliant), in line with the international safety level IEC 62471. When used as directed human UV exposure level comply with Total Threshold Value (TLV) set by American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH®) Minimal and safe ozone emissions at 3% of standard, only <0.003mg/m3.

What organizations have certified the Lumenizer 300?

The Lumenizer 300 has been verified by the Guangzhou Institute of Microbiology and holds the two-in-one certification of National Laboratory Accreditation (CNAS) and Metrology Accreditation (CMA). The test report issued is accredited by the Asia-Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC) and international laboratories. Mutual recognition within the cooperative organization (ILAC), as authoritative and fair data, has legal effect.

What are CNAS and CMA?

Only the testing organization that has obtained the CMA certificate can use the CMA mark on the inspection report. This inspection report with the CMA mark has legal effect and can be used for product quality evaluation, as well as results and judicial appraisal. CNAS is a national accreditation agency approved and authorized by the National Certification and Accreditation Administration Commission in accordance with the “Regulations on Certification and Accreditation of the People's Republic of China.” The inspection report marked by CNAS is not only accredited by China, but also with international quality management system certification and environmental management. There is mutual recognition of system certification and accreditation agencies.

Does Lumenizer exposure tan skin?

Ultraviolet rays that cause skin tanning have a wavelength of 280nm or more, which could be very harmful. It not only causes the skin to darken, but it also damages the basal cells and increases the probability of skin cancer. Lumenizer disinfection systems use a nano-level band-pass filter to block wavelengths beyond 230nm, therefore does not cause the skin to darken.
