The question we hear most often from B2B buyers is: "Can this really be used while people are present?" Understanding the physics of the Far-UVC band (200-230nm) is key to answering this.
The "Human-Safe" Mechanism
Standard UVC (like 254nm or 275nm) can penetrate the living layers of human skin and eyes. However, $230nm$ light is so strongly absorbed by biological proteins that it cannot pass through the dead-cell layer (stratum corneum) of our skin or the tear layer of our eyes. This makes it a "precise band" for safe, continuous disinfection in occupied spaces.
Industry-Leading Reliability:
U-vcare (LEDINTRO) has spent over five years developing a comprehensive UVLED supply chain, from chips to finished modules. Our 230nm LEDs are not just safe for humans; they are built to last:
-
Operating Temperature: Reliable performance from -30 to +85°C.
-
ESD Protection: Class 2 classification for safety against electrostatic discharge.
-
Tested Performance: Featuring a radiant flux of 3.0 mW at 100 mA for effective germicidal action.
Safe Deployment Areas:
From hospitals and schools to public elevators and HVAC systems, Far-UVC 230nm technology is transforming how we manage public health without disrupting daily life.
