What is Ultra Violet Light?

Ultraviolet (UV) light is a form of light on the electromagnetic spectrum between X-rays and visible light. It is not visible to the naked eye and lies just beyond the violet end of the spectrum, which is where the name ultraviolet was derived (“beyond violet”).

There are three types of UV light: A, B, and C, representing a different section of the UV light spectrum. UltravioletType C (UV-C) is the form that exists in the wavelength range between 200–280nanometers (nm) and is the type of UV light used for the germicidal activity.

Although 10% of the sun’s radiation is composed of UV light, virtually all of the sun’s UV-C rays are blocked by the Earth’s ozone layer. The proper use of UV-C light results in the ability to kill or inactivate microorganisms by destroying nucleic acids and disrupting their DNA, leaving them unable to perform vital cellular functions. Specifically, UV-C light causes covalent bonds between certain adjacent bases in the DNA, which prevents them from reproducing. This process is called Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI).

Common Application of UV Clean Technology

The application of UVGI to disinfect has been a broadly accepted practice since the mid-20th century and has primarily been used in medical sanitation and sterile work facilities. More recently, UVGI has been used to sterilize air and water filtration systems, protecting them against bacteria, molds, viruses, and other pathogens.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do UVClean devices work?

UVClean devices kill up to 99.9% of bacteria and viruses using UV-C LED light, invisible to the human eye, and kills bacteria and viruses by disrupting their DNA so they can’t function or reproduce. UVClean is designed to sanitize hard objects and surfaces, like mobile devices, power banks and Qi wireless chargers, keys and keychains, eyeglass frames, keyboards, TV remotes, earbuds, speakers, and much more. It’s important to note that only areas exposed to UV-C light will be sanitized, so positioning objects to receive optimal UV-C light exposure is key.

How long does it take to sanitize an object or surface?

While you can use UVClean devices for as long as you’d like, a minimum of 2 minutes is recommended to reach a kill rate of nearly 100%. What’s the recommended distance to sanitize an object or surface? The UV Clean light must be held 1/2 inch or less away from the object or surface being sanitized for best results. The further away from the object, the longer time it will take to reach the maximum kill rate. Conversely, the closer to the object, the shorter time it will take.

What is the surface area that the UV Clean LED light covers?

These devices’ coverage area is 2” x 2” area when held 1/2 inch away from an object or surface. Does my phone need to be “awake” for the UVClean Micro to work? Yes, your phone must be “awake” to power the UVClean Micro to function and sanitize objects or surfaces for the UV-C LED light.

Does the UVClean P4000 5x Flip Power Bank need to be charged to work?

Yes, the UVClean P4000 5x Flip must have at least a small amount of power stored for the UV-C LED light to function and sanitize objects or surfaces. Are there any recommended safety precautions for use?UV-C devices must be used properly to be safe. They produce UV-C light in wavelengths of 200nm-280nm, which is stronger than normal sunlight and can cause a sunburn-like reaction to the skin or damage the retina of your eye. Therefore, direct exposure to bare skin and eyes should be avoided at all times. However, UV-C light is easily absorbed and inactivated by clothing, plastic, or glass.
