Meanwhile, many of the consumers also interrogate a variety of questions regarding the use of such UVC-lamps in the context of disinfection during the pandemic outbreak of COVID-19. Can you guess the questions that may arise in a person like you before buying a UVC-lamp? 

No; right? 

Well, don’t worry about it. I’m gonna tell you what questions may arise in a person like you before buying a UVC-lamp. Go through all these questions to find out how UVC-lamps disinfect the Coronavirus; okay? 

Before we dive deep into the topic, let me start with what a UVC-lamp is; okay? 

Well, that said; UVC is a known disinfectant that inactivates bacteria & viruses. Similarly, a UVC-lamp is a type of lamp that emits UV-radiation which is a well-known disinfectant for air, water as well as many other non-porous surfaces. 

For your information, let me also tell you that UVC-radiation has been in use for several decades to minimize the spread of many infectious and viral diseases. All the bacteria and viruses tested to date are found to be responding to this radiation. This is the reason why UVC-lamps is also often called “Germicidal Lamps”.

Moreover, UV-light decides to be a highly active agent in disinfecting surfaces as well as a wide variety of objects. In-fact, it deals with them within a couple of minutes. Due to this very reason, this disinfecting agent has been one of the most preferred ones for disinfection in a wide area including schools, hospitals, colleges, hotels etc. 

Use and Effects of UVC Lamp

You might be wondering if UVC-radiation can show any beneficial effect upon SARS-CoV-2 or not; right? 

Well; although SARS-Coronavirus is different from the SARS-CoV-2; it has been shown to destroy easily by the UVC-lamps. Let me also inform you that the virus ultimately gets inactivating after its destruction. Also, the lamps are effective in inactivating coronavirus, the virus that causes the so-called deadly disease; COVID-19. 

Despite this, let me inform you that there’s still much left to search regarding the dose, duration & wavelength of the UVC-radiation that’s requires for the inactivation of the deadly SARS-CoV-2 virus. 

One of the important facts that you must always remember is the strength of the exposure of the UVC, its dosage and more importantly, the duration of the exposure. These two factors greatly determine the effectiveness of the use of a UVC-lamp; okay? Just keep going through this blog.

« Strength of the Exposure

The strength of the exposure of a UVC-lamp highly determines its effectiveness. A UVC-lamp can inactivate or disinfects a virus only if it’s directly exposed to the UV-radiation. 

Here, let me tell you what you need to understand; okay? 

The fact that you need to understand in this context is that it’s a must-have for all the conditions that are required for the virus to be exposed directly to the radiation for its effective inactivation or destruction. Having said this, I mean to tell that there mustn’t be any blockage in between the virus and the UVC-lamp; may that be soil, dust or any other contaminant. 

« Dosage & Duration of UVC

This is also an important point while consideration when attempting to destroy coronavirus using a UVC lamp. Also, you need to be careful when buying a UVC-lamp. Guess why? 

No idea; right? 

Okay; let me tell you why you need to be careful when buying a UVC-lamp. 

It’s all because most of the lamps that are sells for domestic use are of very low dose. Can you guess what might happen due to this? 

It takes a longer time for the exposure to inactivate a bacteria or a virus effectively. 

This is why the dose and duration of a UV-lamp must always care for well enough while using it to inactivate viruses or bacteria. Let me tell you that maintaining the right dose and duration of the exposure of the bacteria and viruses to a UVC-lamp is one of the most important factors to determine their effective destruction; too; no matter either that’s coronavirus or some other ones.
