Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021224443A1] An apparatus adapted for UVC radiation operations whereby UVC radiation is emitted onto solid objects (16) or a surface (15), comprising an enclosure (1), having a handle (2) and an axis (3) around which said enclosure is arranged to pivot between an open and closed state, wherein said apparatus further comprises an electrical driver (5), a UVC radiation emitting source (4) arranged on a printed circuit board (PCB) (20) and a control unit (11) arranged inside said enclosure (1) wherein the apparatus further comprises any one or a combination of the following detection components: at least one sensor (6) configured to detect or measure a distance to one or several moving objects, at least one sensor (7) configured to detect or measure a speed of one or several moving objects, at least one sensor (8) configured to detect humidity (H) levels between said solid objects (16) at least one optical sensor (9) configured to monitor pollution (P) conditions of said solid objects (16), wherein said sensors (6, 7, 8, 9) are further configured to send signal to a control unit (11), at least one photo diode (10) configured to measure a level of UVC radiation, further configured to send signals to said control unit (11), at least one phosphorescent label (13) configured to provide a visual indication of UVC radiation; wherein the control unit (11) is configured to control and adapt the level and duration of UVC radiation emitted by said radiation emitter (4) onto said solid objects (16) in response to the signals provided by one or several of the detection components.
