Food Safety
- Microorganisms such as bacteria, virus, molds and yeasts will pass through most filters and be deposited on the coils and drain pans of air handling systems. This causes loss of efficiency of the coils and increased energy consumption of the refrigeration system. Organisms deposited on the coils grow rapidly increasing the number circulated in the air reducing the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in the facility. These airborne microorganisms can be a serious health risk to employees and a source of contamination to food product surfaces and food contact surfaces.
- C&S Equipment Company can design solutions for these problems using the
patented technology of Steril-Aire™ UVC Emitters This is the proven
technology used in hospitals and commercial buildings to prevent the spread
of disease, respiratory problems and improve indoor air quality. These
emitters are plastic sleeved to meet food safety requirements of
food processing facilities. The patented design allows these emitters to
work efficiently in the cold temperatures of refrigerated and chiller coils
where competitive units loose their effectiveness. Steril-Aire’s™
high yield
UVC Emitter provide an effective, efficient germicidal treatment of air
systems, food surfaces, and food contact surfaces.
Benefits
Improved Indoor Air Quality - Reduced possible contamination of exposed food products and contact surfaces from airborne microorganisms.
- Safer environment for employees reducing lost time illness.
Improved Efficiency Of Refrigeration Systems
- Clean coils improve heat transfer to "like new" conditions.
- Reduced energy costs from improved heat transfer.
Reduced Maintenance Costs
- Coils and drain pans require less frequent cleaning.
