1. Ensure personal safety and avoid direct exposure
Injury warning: UV disinfection lamps are no joke. They pose potential risks to skin and eyes, causing redness, pain, aging, and even an increased risk of skin cancer. They can also cause symptoms like photokeratitis, redness, swelling, and tearing, which can even affect vision in severe cases!
Protection methods: When using UV disinfection lamps, people must remain away! You can set a timer, close doors and windows during disinfection, and wait until the disinfection is complete before entering. Alternatively, wear protective glasses and long-sleeved shirts and long pants for comprehensive protection.
2. Place items carefully to ensure adequate exposure to disinfection
Placement tips: To ensure that the UV light reaches the items being disinfected, placement is crucial. Remember to spread out or hang items so that they don't block each other's light. This ensures that the UV light reaches the surface of the items.
Also, pay attention to the distance between the lamp and the items - neither too close nor too far - to ensure effective disinfection.
3. Use the UV lamp appropriately, controlling disinfection time and power
Disinfection time: When using a UV disinfection lamp, it's important to manage the disinfection time appropriately. Generally, using 1.5-2 watts of UV power per cubic meter of space will allow for disinfection for 30 minutes to an hour.
Ventilation: After disinfection, don't rush back in! Wait for the lamp to cool, then open doors and windows for a while to ventilate the room and reduce the ozone concentration. Ensure safety before entering.
