Topics & Peer Groups

Technology

UV technologies can be used in a variety of ways and open up possibilities for novel and environmentally friendly solutions. With the incredible dynamics in the development of efficient and powerful UV radiation sources and UV sensors, a large number of further innovative UV technologies are to be expected.

Application

UV is commonly used for disinfecting water, air, and surfaces, as it effectively kills microorganisms. UV radiation is also used for curing materials such as coatings, adhesives, and printing inks. Additional applications can be found in medicine for treating skin conditions, in forensics for trace evidence detection, in material testing, in chip manufacturing, and in many other fields.

Product Safety & Standards

Advanced UV for Life

Safety

When using UV radiation, safety aspects can be crucial, depending on the specific wavelength range. Laws and standards protect against damage by setting limits for eyes and skin (ICNIRP, occupational safety). Under certain conditions, UV radiation can also be used safely in the presence of people.

Note We are currently revising the website. The content on the topic of security will be available soon.

Advanced UV for Life

Laws & Standards

For UV devices (lamps, disinfection), there are numerous product standards (e.g. IEC 62471) and environmental regulations (e.g. RoHS against hazardous substances such as mercury). This protects users and the environment and defines device requirements.
