The UVC system requires no specific maintenance, except for the replacement of UVC lamps whose effect on microbial deactivation changes over time.
In fact, the UV-C dose produced by each lamp tends to decrease over time until it is completely exhausted.
After two years of continuous operation (or one year in the case of lamps switched on and off daily)
the UV-C dose falls below the minimum threshold to guarantee the effectiveness of each lamp in its application, and must be replaced.
Some UVC systems are equipped with an 'hour counter' (often purchased separately) that indicates the total hours of operation since first installation.
After 18,000 hours of continuous operation or 9,000 hours of alternating operation (daily switch on and off) the lamps need to be replaced.
Always purchase original Light Progress replacement lamps to maintain the guaranteed effectiveness of Light Progress products.
Replacing the lamps with non-original spare parts:
- could damage the entire UVC system
- might not guarantee the expected level of disinfection and performance of the UVC system
- could result in shorter lamp life over time compared to the use of original lamps
The instructions for the correct replacement of the lamps are included in the user and maintenance manual provided with each original Light Progress UVC system.
