Considerably more than half of all ventilation
and air conditioning systems do not meet the
hygiene requirements of VDI 6022. In particular,
water-conducting and wet equipment parts such as
dehumidifiers and rotary spray humidifiers are
ideal breeding grounds for mould spores,
bacteria and viruses. However, this also applies
to air filters that run at more than 80%
relative humidity. Old systems therefore release
millions of germs and present a health risk to
the people exposed to them. The relevant
standards and regulations to ensure faultless
indoor air quality will be tightened in future.
UV-C disinfection systems from BARO are simple
and inexpensive to fit in existing systems. They
offer an excellent opportunity for quick and
lasting modernisation of old, germ-contaminated
air conditioning systems by bringing them up to
a reliable hygiene standard once more. Our

module or the corresponding luminaires such as the
Compact luminaire
(with or without cold protection), the
Compact lamp IP 65
or the
Luminaire for damp locations
can be deployed.
WasherProtec
water disinfection can also be used for rotary
spray humidifiers.
