UV-12, UV-18 specifications

Field Controls UV-12 and UV-18 are advanced ultraviolet (UV) air purification systems designed to enhance indoor air quality by effectively targeting and neutralizing airborne pathogens. These models utilize cutting-edge technology to provide a safer and healthier environment in residential and commercial spaces.

One of the primary features of both the UV-12 and UV-18 units is their powerful UV-C light technology. This germicidal UV light works at a wavelength of 254 nanometers, effectively disrupting the DNA and RNA of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, and mold spores. By doing so, these systems render the pathogens inactive, significantly reducing their ability to reproduce and cause illness.

The UV-12 is suitable for smaller HVAC systems, making it an ideal choice for compact spaces or homes. It boasts a dual-lamp design that offers enhanced purification capacity without compromising energy efficiency. The UV-18, on the other hand, is designed for larger HVAC systems, delivering increased output for areas with higher air volume and contamination loads. The larger unit accommodates more extensive applications without sacrificing performance.

A significant advantage of the Field Controls UV systems is their low-maintenance design. The replacement UV lamps are designed to last up to 18 months of continuous operation, ensuring consistent performance without frequent interventions. Moreover, the installation process is straightforward, as both models can be easily integrated into existing HVAC systems, allowing for minimal disruption to the user’s daily operations.

Another critical aspect of the UV-12 and UV-18 is their ability to operate silently, providing air purification without noise distractions. This characteristic makes them ideal for use in environments where quiet operation is essential, such as homes, offices, and healthcare facilities.

In addition to their germicidal capabilities, the Field Controls UV systems also help in reducing unpleasant odors. By targeting VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and other airborne contaminants, they contribute to a fresher and more pleasant indoor atmosphere.

Overall, the Field Controls UV-12 and UV-18 air purification systems represent a solid investment for those seeking to improve indoor air quality. Their innovative UV technology, ease of maintenance, and silent operation make these units an excellent choice for maintaining a healthy living or working environment. The combination of efficacy and user-friendly design ensures that users can enjoy peace of mind while effectively combating harmful airborne pathogens.
