Conve - UV-C Light Tunnel Conveyor

• Surface sterilisation of packaged food products prior to secondary packaging.
• Disinfection of medical devices and laboratory equipment in cleanroom environments.
• Sanitisation of small components in pharmaceutical and cosmetic production.
• Reduction of microbial load on fresh produce or bakery items, depending on product suitability.
• Sterilisation of tools and utensils in high-hygiene industries.

Typical throughput

Variable, depending on conveyor speed and UV-C dosage requirements for the specific application.

Power supply

Commonly 230V, 50Hz, single-phase, for this class of equipment, though industrial units may require three-phase.

UV-C wavelength

Typically 254nm, optimised for germicidal efficacy.

Conveyor belt material

Often food-grade stainless steel mesh or PTFE-coated belts for hygiene and UV resistance.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, overall length can vary significantly based on required dwell time and tunnel design.

Safety features

Commonly includes interlocks to prevent UV exposure during operation and emergency stops.

• What is UV-C sterilisation?

  UV-C sterilisation uses short-wavelength ultraviolet light to inactivate microorganisms by disrupting their DNA, preventing them from reproducing and rendering them harmless. It is a chemical-free disinfection method.

• Is UV-C safe for all products?

• What maintenance does a UV-C tunnel conveyor require?

• Does UV-C sterilisation leave residues?

• What are the typical safety considerations for operating UV-C equipment?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
