InviroShield UVGI Systems for Healthy & Safe Indoor Air

InviroShield Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation (UVGI) Systems, a product from InviroTech Systems, is your shield against harmful micro-organisms in the air you breathe.

Viruses, bacteria, molds, spores, fungus, etc. can grow rampantly inside the damp and dark HVAC systems and get distributed all over the buildings through the air conditioning systems, thus making your Indoor Environment infectious, unhealthy and unsafe to breathe.

Research has shown that building occupants exposed to such unhealthy environment can develop health issues, including sinus, congestion, headaches, allergy, asthma, upper respiratory ailments, along with colds and flu, commonly referred to as ‘Sick Building Syndrome.’

Further, mold and bacteria built on cooling coils reduce the space between the fins and increases the pressure drop through the coil, resulting in higher operating cost of AHU fans. 

How UVGI Systems work?

UVC rays of 254 nm wavelength, generated by the UVGI Systems, are highly effective in killing germs without use of any harsh methods like chemical cleaning or steam injections. UVC rays disrupts the reproduction cycle of germs by attacking their DNA and therefore is a completely safe, environment-friendly and most efficient method for removing mold and bacteria from coils and drain pan surfaces.

UVC rays from InviroShield eliminate the mold and bacteria on fins and provide greater savings on fan operation. UVC rays keeps coils clean, which also means lesser coil maintenance.

Therefore, use of UVGI Systems is the safest, most economical and effect way to eliminating microorganisms and improving IAQ.

Why Choose InviroShield UVGI Systems?

• Special ‘safety first’ features for off-coil installation, to prevent short circuit and shock hazard on condensation.
• Leak tight lamp head
• Fully sealed ballast
• Quartz Shield, Double Glass Construction provides multiple benefits 
• Prevents output reduction due to Wind Chill Effect as it keeps lamp core warm even in 10-15oC air flow.

Designed specifically for Air Conditioning applications, InviroShield provides 2.5 times higher output than ordinary UV Lamps

• Provides an additional layer to UVGI lamps and acts as a protection against accidental breakage as it is stronger (nearly 3 times thicker) than the UV lamp material.
• Stainless Steel Angular Reflector ensures that all UV energy from the lamp is directed properly and evenly on coil and drain pan surfaces.
• UV Stable wiring and materials used. Common PVC wires will not last in UV exposure
• Ease of Installation and maintenance: InviroShield comes with full installation kit for AHU and no other framework is required.
• Shatter Proof Lining of lamps with UV transparent material (optional).
• Provision for BAS communication, which gives 0-5 mV signal for fault reporting.
• Door Switch option for AHU panels to ensure safety of maintenance personnel.

InviroTech Systems: Your Partner for Green Building Products

Governments all over the world are becoming increasingly proactive on environmental efforts.  By now most countries have established their Green Rating Systems for buildings, as a means to encourage building developers to design and develop environmentally friendly buildings that have reduced adverse ecological impact. Any building owner fulfilling the certification criteria gets industrial recognition as well as tax benefits.

The Green Rating System devised in Malaysia is known as Green Building Index (GBI).  The rating system gives opportunity for developers and building owners to design and construct green buildings that can provide energy and water savings, a healthier indoor environment, better connectivity to public transport and the adoption of recycling and greenery for their projects.

Buildings are rated based on 6 Criteria:

a) Energy Efficiency

b) Indoor Environmental Quality

c) Sustainable Site Planning and Management

d) Materials and Resources

e) Water Efficiency

f) Innovation

Buildings are awarded GBI Malaysia Platinum, Gold, Silver or Certified Ratings Depending on the Scores Achieved.

All InviroTech Systems products namely Heat Pipes, InviroShield UVGI Systems, Heat Recovery Wheels, Electronic Air Cleaners and Electronic Filter Banks help you earn Green Points with absolute ease.

Why Humidity Control is Essential?

Indoor Humidity has been recognized as one of the top 3 factors that affect quality of Indoor Air. High Humidity is conducive to the growth of micro-organisms like mold, fungus and bacteria, making the indoor air unhealthy and a potential source of sickness. According to EPA, “Indoor air can be 10 times more polluted than outdoor air.”

The “Sick Building Syndrome” is the common name given to a host of health problems and diseases that occur among people due to poor IAQ. Common symptoms being eye & nose irritation, fatigue, cough, nausea, headache, sore throat, asthma, fever or a combination of these.

Besides causing health risks for the occupants, growth of mold and fungus also causes damage to property such as the walls, surfaces and furnishings. Mold infested buildings have often been treated as inhabitable and in extreme cases are required to be evacuated for remediation. Examples include expensive hotel premises, hospitals and schools which are worth hundreds of million dollars and have had to be abandoned as they were declared unfit for human occupation. Remediation is neither easy nor cheap and can cost millions of dollars.

Humidity Control is vital in wide variety of applications to prevent spoilage of products and problems in many industrial processes.

Electronics, Food Industry, Clean Rooms, Pharmaceuticals, Lens Manufacturing, etc. are just a few examples in industries where humidity control has critical importance. Higher than specified RH levels can lead to complete halt of production lines, rejection rate going up and increased customer complaints.

Similarly there are many storage applications of moisture sensitive products that need strict humidity control. Examples include Computer and Data storage, Libraries, Museums, Food Stores, electronic parts storage, etc.

A large number of Industrial processes can have serious trouble due to lack of humidity control and it can be prevented if proper measures are taken in the early stages of the project. Therefore, controlling high humidity has become the need of the hour. InviroTech Heat Pipes are an ideal solution for Humidity Control.
