The Two Inch UV Rule

For those who are not familiar with this term, here is a quick summaryFor those who are not familiar with this term, here is a quick summary..

According to the Lamp Manufacturers, According to the Lamp Manufacturers, efficiencies DROP very efficiencies DROP very quickly the further from the UV Lamp surface you movequickly the further from the UV Lamp surface you move..

At just 2” from the surface of the glass, the UV efficiency has already dropped 80% and the decline is not exponential.

This is true for all types of UV Lamps, from cold cathode to hot This is true for all types of UV Lamps, from cold cathode to hot cathode, soft glass to quartz glass.cathode, soft glass to quartz glass.

The reason why Sanuvox In-Duct Purifiers are so effective in destroying The reason why Sanuvox In-Duct Purifiers are so effective in destroying airborne contaminants is because the purifiers can: airborne contaminants is because the purifiers can:

Size DOES Matter

How does the UV Bio-Wall treat ALL the air in the duct at one time?

Because the UV Bio-Wall is designed to treat all the air in the duct, Because the UV Bio-Wall is designed to treat all the air in the duct, Sanuvox can not slow ALL the air downSanuvox can not slow ALL the air downas it travels over the lamp. as it travels over the lamp.

To compensate for NOT slowing the air down, the Bio-Wall MUST deliver an extremely high amount of UV To compensate for NOT slowing the air down, the Bio-Wall MUST deliver an extremely high amount of UV over a much greater distanceover a much greater distance..
