(REF: S-0810) |
Matched I&T Wish |
|
Trial Project |
|
Solution Feature |
- Far-UVC system tailor-made for lift
- Include common pathogens for laboratory test
- Field test include both lift button panel, hand rail and cabin air
- Include a comprehensive M&V report
|
Trial Application and Expected Outcome |
- A tailer-made Far UVC lamp will be installed in the lift that will irradiated on the lift button and hand-rail to kill attached microorganisms;
- The disinfection system will not affect the lift users;
- Effectiveness of the irradiation will be proved by sampling of bacteria on the surface of the lift button and in air inside the lift;
- Laboratory test will be conducted to indicate the effectiveness of Far-UVC on common pathogens ;
- The R&D test result can indicate the effectiveness of the Far UVC technology for surface and air disinfection.
