UV-PIPE is composed of:

High-efficiency UV-C systems with the following features:

  • All-in-One: Single-lamp systems that easily adapt to multiple environments and include a compact power supply integrated into the lamp support cylinder.
  • Enhanced Performance: High-performance UV-C lamp (253.7 nm) coated with a quartz sleeve for better disinfection and protection against temperature fluctuations.
  • Built to Last: High-quality AISI 304 stainless steel and materials tested to resist UV radiation.
  • Water Splash Protection: IP67 rating, with optional UVLON™ protection for greater durability and safety in case of accidental glass breakage.
  • Combine Multiple Devices: Organize them to create your ideal disinfection solution.

UV-PIPE

The UV-PIPE family is a line of innovative devices designed to ensure high hygiene and safety standards.
Using UV-C technology, UV-PIPE products are ideal for purifying air and surfaces exposed to microbial contamination, effectively reducing the presence of bacteria, fungi, molds, and other microorganisms responsible for food deterioration. Cross-contamination between food products is one of the main issues in the food industry, and UV-C disinfection is the perfect solution to combat it safely, quickly, and ecologically.

UV-PIPE-BV: Specifically designed for food store display counters. It treats the circulating refrigerated air, preventing cross-contamination of food.
UV-PIPE-F with flange: Ideal for applications where 360° surface irradiation and distributed disinfection are required.
UV-PIPE-NX: Features an ultra-compact AISI 304 stainless steel structure, coated with reflective VEGA™ aluminum, designed for high UV reflection.

It is well-established that, in the food industry, increasing hygiene levels leads to a general improvement in product quality. More specifically, UV-PIPE achieves a 99% reduction of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc., in just a few seconds of operation.

F.A.Q.

Ultraviolet rays are electromagnetic waves which are part of light. Electromagnetic waves are divided into three main wavelength bands, expressed in nanometers, nm: Ultraviolet rays (UV) 100-400 nm Visible rays (light) 400-700 nm Infrared rays (IR) 700-800,000 nm UV rays are in turn identified in three bands:

  • UV-A (315-400 nm) with tanning properties;
  • UV-B (280-315 nm) con proprietà terapeutiche e di sintesi della vitamina "D";
  • UV-C (100-280 nm) with germicidal properties.

UV-C rays (100-280 nm) have a strong germicidal effect and reach their maximum efficacy at the 265 nm wavelength. The germicidal effect of UV-C radiation covers bacteria, viruses, spores, fungi, moulds and mites; this is mainly due to the destructive effect of the UV-C rays on their DNA, which damage their reproductive system and prevent them from replicating.

Bacteria, Viruses, Spores, Fungi, Mould, and Mites are all sensitive to, and can therefore be eliminated with, UV-C light. Mircrobes cannot acquire resistance to UV-C light, unlike that which occurs using chemical disinfectants and antibiotics. UV rays are ecological. Polluting the environment is inevitable using normal disinfectants. Directly inhaling the vapours, or swallowing food products contaminated by any contact with said chemical disinfectants, can also give rise to a number of serious risks. In cases where chemical disinfectants cannot be eliminated (food, pharmaceutical, healthcare industries, etc.), using ultraviolet rays for disinfection allows a reduction in their use, with considerable economic savings and greater care for the environment, while maintaining and almost always improving the level of disinfection. UV-C light devices can be installed in environments and on machinery and be programmed to maintain the same level of disinfection day and night, guaranteeing ideal hygiene conditions, without highs and lows. On the contrary, chemical disinfectants are effective only during their actual use. Using LIGHT PROGRESS equipped luminaires, operating costs are negligible; it could be said that “LIGHT PROGRESS” UV-C systems do not require maintenance except for the normal replacement of the lamps. The cost/benefit ratio is considered excellent; the devices are both powerful and long-lasting. Hence the elimination of germs using UV-C technology is low-cost and highly effective compared to (or in combination with) other systems.

UV-C really does work when applied correctly and with the necessary precautions. The difference between a quality project and an unsuccessful application is in-depth knowledge and experience gained over time. Since 1987, Light Progress has been carrying out successful projects all over the world and has acquired a clientele of major companies in all sectors that require verified hygienic conditions to produce quality products and services.
