The All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System from Aerapy® measures ultraviolet energy output in critical HVAC airstream disinfection and coil-cleaning applications in real-time.

The All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System from Aerapy® provides convenient, real-time UV output reporting in critical airstream or in-duct disinfection and/or coil-cleaning applications. The patent-pending system automatically reports germicidal UV-C, LED-UV, and Far-UV intensity levels, eliminating the need to manually check individual lamps and ballasts in multiple HVAC AHUs and ducts. This ability to customize UV alert set levels empowers building managers with precise UV performance data and easily integrates with most building automation systems (BAS/BMS). https://aerapy.com/uv-monitoring-system

ST. CHARLES, Ill., Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System from Aerapy® offers a seamless, real-time solution for measuring and reporting multiple ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths in critical HVAC airstream disinfection and coil-cleaning applications.

The patent-pending system automatically reports germicidal UV-C, LED-UV, and Far-UV intensity levels, eliminating the need to manually check individual lamps and ballasts in multiple AHUs or Roof Top Units (RTUs). Automating UV system operation monitoring across multiple fixtures and locations significantly reduces labor costs and helps to document operational or germ-inactivation efficiency.

The Aerapy® All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System delivers real-time UV output reporting for HVAC disinfection and coil-cleaning applications.

REAL-TIME ONLINE MONITORING & REPORTING

If a lamp and/or ballast cease functioning, the system promptly alerts the user, ensuring the correct UV output levels are maintained for critical applications such as healthcare, manufacturing, water filtration, and agriculture. The web-based user interface and reporting dashboard easily integrate with most building automation systems (BAS/BMS).

Individual sensors are strategically mounted above, below, or directly facing each UV lamp and wired to a centralized gateway via a six-foot industrial-grade shielded cable. Each sensor features an adjustable aluminum mounting base, enabling precise adjustments between the sensor and the UV lamp.

Each wireless gateway supports up to eight connected sensors and can transmit each sensor's operational status to the cloud-based monitoring system using secure Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or Bluetooth signals. Multiple Aerapy sensors and wireless gateways can efficiently monitor UV-C fixtures across numerous HVAC applications and locations.

Key features of the All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System include:

1. WEB-BASED MONITORING: Provides continuous, real-time data on UV intensity, ensuring that UV lamps operate within optimal output levels.

2. MULTI-WAVELENGTH MEASUREMENT: Specifically designated sensors can track and report ultraviolet output across the full UV spectrum, including LED-UV (±10nm), vacuum-UV (100-200nm), far-UV (207-222nm), UV-C (200–280nm), UV-B (280-315nm), and UV-A (315-400nm).

3. HVAC APPLICATIONS: Ensures the UV lamps used in HVAC airstream disinfection and coil-cleaning systems are effective in inactivating bacteria and viruses, such as:

  • Facility Management: Monitoring UV HVAC applications in commercial, retail, and institutional environments. Helps building managers comply with ASHRAE Standard 241, which establishes minimum requirements for reducing the risk of disease transmission through exposure to infectious aerosols in buildings.
  • Healthcare: Monitoring UV disinfection in hospitals and laboratories.
  • Agriculture: Ensuring proper UV exposure in indoor growing and cultivation applications, including mold prevention in controlled environments such as greenhouses and indoor farms.

4. IMPROVED SAFETY AND EFFICIENCY: The system helps identify when UV lamp output is underperforming, which can be paramount for HVAC disinfection applications.

OPERATIONAL ALERTS:

Aerapy's All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System can report on the following operational conditions:

  • UV Output – Energy intensity is reported as a percentage of the lamp's original rated output.
  • Elapsed Lamp Life – The remaining percentage of life is based on the standard 9,000-hour run-time. The run-time counter can be reset when the lamps are replaced.
  • Lamp/Ballast or Power Failure.

TRACK LAMP USAGE HOURS AND INTENSITY

For businesses utilizing UV technology, regularly monitoring and replacing lamps is essential to ensure optimal performance and maintain equipment efficiency, as all UV lamps degrade and can lose their output effectiveness over time.

According to ASHRAE, UV lamps can exceed their rated life of 9,000 hours of continuous use, emitting visible blue light even after their UV output has become ineffective. Thus, UV output performance cannot be verified by observing a blue light; instead, it requires measurement by a handheld radiometer or a continuous monitoring system.

With its precise capabilities, Aerapy's new system aligns with the objectives of ASHRAE Standard 241, which establishes minimum requirements for reducing the risk of disease transmission through exposure to infectious aerosols in buildings. By ensuring that UV disinfection processes remain effective, Aerapy's system consistently supports clean air and contributes to the overall health of building environments.

Ideal for monitoring newly commissioned UV fixtures or retrofitting to accommodate existing applications, Aerapy's All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System represents a significant advancement in UV technology. It provides users across all applications and industries with the capability to precisely monitor and maintain the effectiveness of their UV systems.

PRODUCT SUMMARY

The Aerapy® All-Spectrum UV Monitoring System delivers real-time UV output reporting for HVAC disinfection and coil-cleaning applications. This patent-pending system automatically monitors germicidal UV-C, LED-UV, and Far-UV levels, removing the need to manually check lamps and ballasts across multiple HVAC units. Building managers gain precise performance data for improved maintenance and efficiency. The web-based monitor and intuitive reporting dashboard seamlessly integrate with most building automation systems (BAS/BMS), providing a powerful, user-friendly solution for monitoring critical UV functions.

ABOUT AERAPY

Since 2008, Aerapy has led the way in UV disinfection, delivering scientifically validated, innovative systems that improve occupant safety, boost operational efficiency, and promote environmental health.
