What Type of UV Light is Best?

Most UV sterilization devices use UV-C light as the source of their disinfecting power. UV-C light is an effective solution for sterilization, which is why it is the most widely used light type. However, it can cause some serious damage as well. UV-C light can penetrate human skin and cause damage or injury to the person using it, if not careful. UV-C light can also cause damage to certain plastics and rubber materials over time.

A better light solution is the K-NOCK SKW-200 . Far-UV uses a different wavelength of the UV spectrum to provide the same disinfecting strength as UV-C without the dangerous side effects. Far-UV can also work faster and disinfect more quickly than UV-C lamps, creating greater efficiency. A recent study confirms what Far-UV promises in terms of safety to people in the workspace, affirming that Far-UV cannot penetrate the skin and cause harm to humans.

Far-UV is safer for workplace cleanup as well as for human safety. Many regular UV-C lamps and lights contain mercury in the bulbs, which make disposal hazardous and much more complicated. Far-UV doesn’t use mercury, and therefore is safer to use and to dispose of.
