Ensure equipment decontamination during transfer

UV222 Material Airlock

Transferring equipment between cleanroom zones is a critical point of vulnerability in contamination control. The UV222 Material Airlock is designed to address this challenge by providing a validated, chemical-free decontamination process for materials and equipment - ranging from small tools to large vessels -before entering higher-grade cleanroom zones.

By utilizing Far-UVC (222 nm) light, the system ensures rapid microbial decontamination of both air and exposed surfaces without damaging sensitive materials or generating particles. Unlike traditional methods, there is no need for chemical residues or manual handling, making the airlock an ideal solution for GMP-compliant workflows.

Key Benefits:

• Rapid, residue-free decontamination of equipment surfaces using scientifically documented UV222 technology.

• Non-damaging to materials, ensuring no degradation of plastics, metals, or coatings over time.

• No particle generation, preserving ISO 14644 cleanroom classifications.

• Integrated barrier function, preventing cross-contamination between cleanroom zones.

• Optimized for large equipment, including vessels, carts, and tools used in sterile production environments.

How It Works:

The airlock utilizes excimer-based Far-UVC lamps strategically placed to cover equipment surfaces from multiple angles. As equipment enters the chamber, a preset cycle activates the UV222 light to inactivate microorganisms in seconds. The process is fully automated, ensuring consistent results with minimal operator involvement.
