Godrej UV Light Sterilizer Box FAQs
How does Godrej UV Case disinfect viruses and bacteria? Godrej UV Light Sterilizer Disinfection Box FAQs
Godrej UV Case has a UVC-band ultraviolet lamp, with a very high frequency. The wavelength of 253.7nm is capable of damaging the DNA/ RNA code of the viruses & bacteria, triggering lethal mutation which prevents them from reproducing.
01- Does Godrej UV Case kill COVID-19/SARC-CoV-2?
Worldwide, UVC Sterilization is the most established scientific method for dry killing more than 65 families of pathogens, viruses & bacteria, including SARS-CoV-1*. However, there is no specific study that talks about COVID-19. But it is prolific & clinically accepted.
02 -Can we disinfect our hands?
No, you cannot disinfect any body parts by using Godrej UV Case or any UV light. We recommend alcohol based liquid sanitizers and/or washing body parts with soap & water.
03- What are the precautions to keep in mind while using Godrej UV Case?
Godrej UV Case is designed keeping all safety precautions in mind. One should avoid direct contact of any body part with the UVC light or directly looking into the UVC tube. Care should be taken while following the steps mentioned in the user manual to get the most effective results.
04-What are the precautions to keep in mind while using Godrej UV Case?
Godrej UV Case is designed keeping all safety precautions in mind. One should avoid direct contact of any body part with the UVC light or directly looking into the UVC tube. Care should be taken while following the steps mentioned in the user manual to get the most effective results.
05-What is the UVC dose for killing or disabling the COVID-19 virus?
Because the COVID-19 virus (SARS-CoV-2) is so new, the scientific community doesn’t yet have a specific deactivation dosage. However, we know the dosage values for comparable viruses in the same SARS virus family are 10-20 mJ/cm2 using direct UVC light at a wavelength of 254nm; this dosage will achieve 99.9% disinfection (i.e., inactivation) under controlled lab conditions. In real-life, the virus is often hidden or shaded from direct UVC light, reducing UVC’s effectiveness. To compensate, researchers are applying dosages of 1,000 – 3,000 mJ/cm2 to ensure 99.9% deactivation, the current CDC disinfection goal.
06-How much time does it take to sanitize products?
Based on the model, sanitization takes anywhere between 5-12mins. Care should be taken while following the steps mentioned in the user manual to get the most effective results.
