The solution is surface disinfection using UV light. Our BlueLight® Premium UV system is especially designed for food packaging disinfection such as packaging for paste-like, dry or liquid fresh products such as yogurt or milk. The surface disinfection process is cold, dry and without chemicals.

Key Features:

  • Packaging remains cool due to cold UV radiation
  • No chemicals used
  • Accelerated production process as the maximal warm-up time of the lamps is 90 seconds
  • Safe operation on production line due to breakage detector for lamps
  • Can be used also in moist environments due to protection class IP67
  • Extremely long life of the lamps with a high radiation intensity
  • Low-maintenance system
  • Module can be retrofitted to existing filling & sealing plants

The high performance Steribelt UV system is used primarily to desinfect the surfaces of conveyor belts in the meat-processing industry.

Due to the flat geometry of the indium amalgam lamps in the module, Steribelt ensures that more than 50% of the power is directed straight at the surface so there is a significant efficiency increase.

Key Features:

  • Maximum output due to the use of an amalgam lamp
  • No chemicals used
  • Easy installation and maintenance due to compact steel casing and simple emitter replacement
  • Requires no external air or water cooling
  • Washable due to protection class IP67
  • LampSafe shatter protection with exceptional UV transmissivity
  • Efficiency can be measured and documented for quality control
  • Available with different lengths
  • Easy to retrofit to existing system
  • Low investment and operating costs
  • Reliable disinfection – long operating life and minimal product residue on the surface due to rotational symmetry
