Hubbell Lighting Introduces SpectraClean Visible Light Disinfection Technology for Commercial and Industrial Markets
July 19, 2019
Hubbell Lighting has announced it has commercially launched a series of visible light disinfection SpectraClean luminaires to the market. These luminaires leverage developments in the disciplines of lighting science and microbiology to combine white and narrowband 405 nanometer (“nm”) visible light to meet ambient and task lighting requirements while providing a continuous, unobtrusive disinfection option for commercial applications.
The germicidal effects of narrowband visible light suppress a wide range of bacteria, molds, fungi and yeast. The antimicrobial light from SpectraClean induces the production of damaging reactive oxygen species in harmful microorganisms to accelerate cell inactivation.
Antimicrobial disinfection through illumination is proven effective with proper dosage levels on pathogens suspended in air or attached to a variety of surfaces, materials and objects. SpectraClean resides outside the UV spectrum and will not damage non-harmful plant and animal cells or degrade inanimate materials.
Hubbell Lighting is the exclusive licensee of University of Strathclyde’s High Intensity Narrow Spectrum (“HINS”) lighting technology targeting Areas of Congregation and Food & Beverage in North and Central America. Areas of Congregation include recreation and wellness, education and childcare, hospitality and hotel, public transportation, cleanrooms and retail. Applications in the Food & Beverage industry include food manufacturing, packaging, processing, preparation and dining.
SpectraClean features the industry’s only line of commercial luminaires available with HINS technology offered with integrated wireless control support for four modes of operation and multiple standard lumen packages.
