Quartz lamp and its application

Since ancient times it is believed that sunlightcan prevent the multiplication of infections. In 1877, it was found that the growth of microorganisms stops from part of the spectrum of solar radiation, with a wave below 320 nm.

Thanks to further scientific developmentscreate artificial sources of radiation capable of destroying bacteria and disinfecting air and surfaces of solid materials without using chemical disinfectants and high temperatures.

The spectrum of ultraviolet rays (UV) is divided into three groups:

• Long waves (UV-A) 315 400 nm.
• The average wave (UV - B) is 280 315 nm.
• Short waves (UV - C) are shorter than 280 nm.

Modern quartz irradiators are divided into several types: wall, mobile, ceiling, closed and open type.

Ultraviolet bactericidal irradiator(quartz lamp) is designed to destroy microorganisms in the air and on various surfaces, is an effective method of prevention and control of pathogens of various infections.

Special attention should be paid to the combined quartz lamp, which allows irradiation of surfaces and air with the help of an open lamp. In that

It should be remembered that during thea lamp of people in the room should not be. If diffuse irradiation is used with a shielded (closed) lamp, then the presence of people is acceptable.

Today, the quartz lamp has received a wideapplication in medicine for the treatment of various diseases. However, before starting the procedure, consultation of the attending physician with regard to contraindications and selection of the necessary dosage is necessary.

It is possible to achieve positive results onlyin the case of strict compliance with prescriptions of the attending physician. All people respond to treatment individually, so there are no general rules for quartz treatment.

The main rule for using a UV lamp isThe need to wear protective goggles, which are usually included in the kit. Areas of the body that can not be irradiated are covered with a towel. The procedure can be started five minutes after the lamp is turned on - during this time its stable operation mode is established.

The quartz lamp should be located on thea distance of fifty centimeters from the irradiated site. Before irradiation, lubricate the skin with oil or sunscreen. Start the procedure from 0.5 minutes, gradually increasing the time at each

then irradiation for 0.5-1 minute.

Currently, medical equipment stores offera huge selection of ultraviolet irradiators. Let me introduce you - a quartz lamp for home use - "Sunny". This apparatus is both bactericidal and therapeutic.

Quartz lamp "Sun", reviews about whichcan be viewed on the Internet, created for tempering and improving children and adults. This model compensates for the lack of sunlight for the body. It is used in the treatment and prevention of diseases such as influenza, runny nose. In addition, it can easily cope with bacteria and viruses in any room.

Quartz lamp for home use "Sun" is especially suitable for processing the room in which the newborn baby is located.
