Disinfection modules

Heraeus Noblelight supplies different UV modules and systems for surface disinfection:
BlueLight® UV modules

BlueLight® UV disinfection modules have been developed especially for the food industry. The system achieves a disinfection rate in excess of 99.9%.
Disinfection modules are installed in filling and closing machines for dairy products and beverages and used to sterilise conveyor belts, transport containers and work surfaces and the surfaces of food.
The packaging materials achieve a degree of purity that corresponds to the classification as "low-germ packaging materials". Thanks to the breakage detector, the modules can be operated safely in the production line.
Heraeus offers modules for rent for testing purposes

BlueLight UV sterilisation modules are ready-to-operate assembly systems consisting of:

  • One or more UV cassettes, window size: 365 mm - 865 mm long x 107 mm - 370 mm wide, with an electric output of 140 W - 1000 W
  • GoldSpot® UV lamps
  • Fan housing, forced cooling with ambient air
  • Power supply 50/60Hz, 230 V +15%
  • Quartz glass pane with breakage detector
  • CE sign
  • International class of protection IP 55


Advantages of the BlueLight UV disinfection modules:

  • - Cold, intensive UV radiation
  • - No chemicals required
  • - High disinfection rate within a few seconds
  • - Low operating costs
  • - Uncomplicated retrofitting to existing plants
  • - Breakage detector as part of your HACCP concept
  • - Easy monitoring of the disinfection radiation using a UVC measuring instrument as part of a DIN ISO 9001 quality management system
Premium UV-modules
Premium UV-modules from Heraeus have been developed especially for the packaging materials industry. A new lamp technology achieves high intensities and a significant long life.
Low service expenditure, economic advantages and easy installation and operation make the Premium modules efficient disinfection modules. Thanks to the breakage detector, the modules can be operated safely in the production line.
Although the UV cassettes generate a high irradiance, the UV radiation is cold. Therefore, the packaging material is not heated. Thus, the disinfection method is excellently suited primarily for heat-sensitive materials.
Due to its geometry, the module is in particular used for in-line machines with 4 to 12 rows of cups.
The complete Premium module is standardly available in 3 sizes and consists of the UV disinfection cassette with the UV lamps, the media box including power supply and ventilation and two air hoses.


Advantages of the Premium UV-modules:

  • Very powerful
  • 12 000 operating hours
  • Air cooling instead of water cooling
  • Ventilation for UV-lamps: Integrated power supply
  • Breakage detector
  • Electronic ballast in the media box
  • No addition of chemicals
  • Cold UV radiation
  • Short exposure time
  • Easy handling
  • Low-maintenance procedure
  • Low operating costs
  • Retrofittable to existing machines and plants
