UV-TEAM-A is composed of:

UV-TEAM-A series includes a wide range of direct irradiation, up to 8 lamps, models for production lines and food packaging application.
For system control and power supply, it is necessary to combine it to our MASTER-TMA control board to which they are connected one or more modules by multipolar prewired cables with quick connection multipolar plugs.
Control boards have a frontal synoptic panel for every single UV-C lamp correct operativity control, equipped with a LED for each installed lamp.
Control boards can also be equipped with a PLC (optional) electronic control system and LCD viewer, which also expects hour counter, ignitions counter, single exhausted lamp and faulty lamp alarm, lamps automatic switching off in case of
protections opening, delayed shutdown in case of machine stop and other features depending on application type.
UV-TEAM-A is completely made in Italy, with high quality and extremely resistant materials.

UV-TEAM-A

UV-TEAM-A range is applied on food products transport and packaging lines such as: flow pack, termoforming machines, sieves, cooling tunnel, automatic weighing and more in general transport belts, as well as treating also the food products, decontaminating from germs the surfaces of belts, products, packages, etc.
It is shown that the control and the increase of hygiene level allows a consequent and general increase in quality both in healthcare facilities but also in pharmaceutical sector, in microbiological laboratories, etc.
The disinfection level with UV-TEAM-A achieves the elimination (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just a few minutes
of operation.
Some application examples are treatment in bottling lines and the down channel plugs; treatment of products being placed on the clean room (using a UV tunnel that allows you to enter products in protected environments by eliminating any risk of contamination) treatment of spices (tunnel with Shaving system thin layer, reduction of the bacterial load and increase the shelf-life.
The - A serie includes special amalgam lamps. This type of bulbs, unlike the standard low pressure UV-C lamps, use a special “amalgam” made with metals, which optimize the UV germicidal power efficiency.
Amalgam systems allows triple the UV-C emission compare to a low pressure lamp with the same length, and up to 16.000 hours life that
guarantee a consequent cost saving.
Amalgam lamps are perfect in application where there is a short timing of exposition, such as in some food packaging lines.
High disinfection levels of UV-TEAM can be otherwise achieved, but only with chemicals, hazardous to health and harmful to the environment, as well as costly.

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.
