Germicidal ultraviolet (UV) air filtration products are used all over the world to control pathogens. UV lamps make ozone when they produce energy at about 185 nanometers. When they operate at 257 nanometers, they make germicidal UV (also called UVC), a powerful bactericide and virucide. The Sanuvox operates on both of these wavelengths. In the first stage, the unit uses photo oxidation (ozone), eliminating odors such as those from pets, chemicals, cooking, paint, perfume and tobacco smoke. Then, the air and a small amount of ozone pass by germicidal UV, which reduces more than 99% of organisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, mold and mildew
(Click here for a chart of what Sanuvox removes.) This portion of the UV spectrum also changes residual ozone back into oxygen
(view diagram). The R4000GX is a residential induct or light commercial unit for up to 4,000 square feet. Features high-intensity UV lamp inside aluminum reflector tube for intensifying the UV energy; LED display; and airflow sensor that automatically turns the unit on when needed. Measures 13 1/2" x 8" x 12". Can be outfitted with an ozone-only lamp for strong odor control situations.
