DEVICE DESCRIPTION

UV-STICK...NX includes a UV-C lamp placed inside a shaped case of small size, entirely made of stainless steel, and

with polished aluminum screen, to increase performance also reflecting the proportion of UV-C which should be dis-

persed in the direction opposite to that useful. The UV-C lamps, with emission peak at 253,7 nm. (nanometers), have a

strong germicidal power against all organisms (fungi, bacteria and viruses). The shaped case consists of a box of stain-

less steel AISI 304, within which a watertight plastic duct is located, containing all the electronic power supply, with de-

gree of protection IP 55 for a double insulation. The UV-C lamp can also be protected by a grid of stainless steel AISI

304; The unit comes complete with a cable 2x1mm2, without plug for power supply.

Each series UV-STICK...NX is designed to radiate environments directly, but can also be installed in places where

space is very limited, as laminar flow hoods, cupboards and drawers to store items to be kept sterile, tables for food

processing or cutting, air ducts, sterilized containers (tanks, silos, etc..). They can also be used for the disinfection of

packaging film, conveyor belts, but also of bottling lines and devices for the disinfection of bottles and their closure

caps, etc.. The construction materials of the UV-STICK...NX (AISI 304) shall permit its use for disinfection / sterilization

of products and their containers, even within the food industry or where a high resistance to chemical and atmospheric

agents is required.

APPLICATIONS AND RESULTS

This device can be applied to radiate the packaging lines of the alimentary products, to decontaminate from the germs

both the containers and the food. It has compact dimensions (section 53x53 mm.) and is available in various lengths

and wattages. The unit can be configured in a portable version, or can be permanently installed in places where space

is particularly limited. The special construction materials and the degree of protection IP68 make it possible to use the

device even in environments rich in aggressive chemical and physical agents.

OPERATING

UV-STICK...NX produces direct radiation by UV-C ultraviolet rays. When activated, it generates a strong reduction of

microbes in the air and on the irradiated surfaces. For instance, with the model UV-STICK E75H NX, in 2 ÷ 3 seconds

a reduction of 99% of bacteria (Bacillus, E. coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylo-

coccus, Streptococcus, etc..) is obtained, at the distance of 10 cm.

UV-STICK...NX can be installed in any type of environment, to obtain a deep disinfection of air and surfaces, even

those difficult to reach with traditional cleaning systems. The use of this device is allowed only in the absence of per-

sonnel; otherwise, the device should be contained within adequately screened boxes or protections. In case of use for

the disinfection of work environments, the device must be turned on for 2 ÷ 3 hours during the time of absence of staff

workers. For example, by means of a time switch, you can manage the switching-on of the lamps in the hours immedi-

ately before the entry of operators, so as to start a new working cycle inside a disinfected environment.

The schedule of the irradiation time can be made by a MASTER-ST series electronic control unit, which can manages

several operations, like:

•Programmed switching on. It is possible to program the duration of the irradiation by means of an adjustable

timer..

•Personnel entry detector. A safety system switches off the lamps in case of intrusion of personnel.

•Failure alarm. In case of failure of one or more lamps of the device, a warning light will turn on to enable the

identification of the lamp/lamps off, and an electric contact will open to signal the failure.

Hour counter. To manage the correct replacement for exhausted lamps.

BENEFITS AND ADVANTAGES

a) DEEP AND ONGOING DISINFECTION. This unit can stay lit continuously in the absence of people (for example

during the night, at least for 2-3 hours). The disinfection of air, equipments, and of all that is contained within a room,

allows to start the working day in ideal hygienic conditions. Therefore, the level of microbial load of a room remains

constantly low .

b) PHYSICAL ACTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION. Treatment by UV-C rays is purely physical, and

achieves always the same effect; also, there are no problems of overdose and rooms are always safe and practicable

(when devices are off). Rather, many methods of chemical treatment involve the use of dangerous products for the en-

vironment, and difficult to biodegrade, as well as the risk of contamination of foodstuffs. Also, by the use of chemicals it

is likely to develop resistant microbial forms with consequent danger to human health.

c) ELIMINATION OF MICROBIAL LOAD. The food and its container can be irradiated by UV-C rays to significantly re-

duce the level of microbial load, increasing the shelf-life of the products, without any contra-indication.

LIGHT PROGRESS STICK-NX [eng]

gen-2021 Pag. 5/16

d) IMMEDIATE EFFECT. It takes just a very short time to obtain effective results (99% killing of the bacteria), compa-

rably to volumes / surfaces to be treated, and the installation is easy and not invasive, so that modules can be applied

even all along a production line, with no interference.

e) NO DANGER OF LAUNCH OF GLASS FRAGMENTS. With the special protection UVLON (optional), no danger of

dispersion of glass fragments due to possible breaking of the lamps UV-C.

f) PRACTICABILITY AND SAVINGS.The treatment is immediate and ready for use. The maintenance is minimal with

low costs of both energy consumption and repairs.

g) NO CHEMICAL / PHYSICAL ALTERATION.The cold and dry treatment of the UV-C rays does not cause any altera-

tion in the organoleptic quality of the food.

gen-2021 Pag. 6/16

INSTALLATION

In the case of application of UV-STICK for direct irradiation of the environment, the device should be positioned on the

ceiling almost in central position. The installation of several units should be carried out so as to distribute them uniform-

ly in the environment (to avoid the hidden areas, such as the corners; it should allow all the air to be treated). These

models can be mounted on the wall and still comply with the regular distribution (Fig. 2).

The area/space covered by the UV STICKS...NX devices is shown in Table 1. The final result of the disinfection will still

be made dependent on the amount of germs coming in from the external environment.

To fit the model of UV-STICK-E...-NX using the two stainless steel brackets supplied, anchoring them to the ceiling by

screw anchors (8 ÷ 10 mm.) or by self-tapping screws (not supplied).

After inserting the anchors onto the ceiling, you should tighten (by supplied stainless steel screws M4x10) the device to

the two brackets, and then you should screw the brackets to the ceiling.

For the model, UV-STICK-E2/...-NX you must drop the UV device from the ceiling by a not supplied chain, connecting

the chain to the ring of the supplied steel bracket.

MAINTENANCE

UV LAMP

Lamp maintenance is very important because UV-C light emitted by

the source is not visible to the eye, so, although you see the lamp

ON, its germicidal effect may not be sufficient to performs disinfec-

tion treatment.

Before reaching the lamp, ALWAYS switch off power supply

If UV-C lamp gets dirty (or gets dusty) clean it with a clean cloth and al-

cohol, and avoid touching the glass part with hands. To check UVC lamp

life number of hours, correct product code of the spare UV lamp please

refer to table 1. The lamp, once reached the timing for replacement,

must be replaced, this operation is carried out as follows:

• Loosen the ring nuts on the lamp housing and let them slide

along the lamp; grab the lamp at the 2 ends and pull it in a direc-

tion parallel to the lamp.

• Repeat the steps in reverse to insert the new lamp.

TROUBLESHOOTING

UV LAMP

See MAINTENANCE.

BALLAST

All UV-STICK models are supplied with electronic ballasts

which guarantees an emission of 15% more if compared

with traditional ballasts. Furthermore, lamps are not influ-

enced by environment temperature that can goes until -

20°C. Finally, the switching on is immediate, with no

starter, and for this reason lamps last longer.

To preserve the original features of original IP protection

and isolation class, and to maintain all the characteristics

that guarantee a long-lasting life of this product, the bal-

last replacement must be done by qualified technicians

verified by Light Progress. In case of necessity, please,

send the device back to our facility for any kind of repairs.

If this is not possible you can order the entire supply

channel for replacement (for code, see Table 1).
