UV-C Disinfection Lighting Delivers an Extra Layer of Protection
 

Safeguarding the health and wellbeing of your passengers and crew is a top priority. UV-C disinfection lighting can help supplement your disinfection strategy, especially if options for ventilation and filtration are limited. For example, an upper air UV-C system can be installed on lower decks or in hospitality spaces, where there are higher levels of footfall, such as dining rooms, spas, theaters and gyms. You can even add these fixtures in guest and staff cabins to help avoid circulating undisinfected air throughout the ship. These solutions can be used when people are present and without interrupting regular operations and activities; they are installed high up on walls, close to the ceiling, and come with shielding and optics, preventing exposure to the light source.
 

You can also give your crew greater confidence in your disinfection measures by cleaning commonly shared objects with a simple press of a button. For small objects like phones, walkie-talkies and keyboards, UV-C light can be applied through an enclosed chamber. The chamber is equipped with additional safety measures, such as door sensors and magnetic locks, to prevent it from being accidentally opened during the disinfection process.

Take the Color Kinetics PureStyle Compact Powercore luminaires, for instance. They offer cruise operators high-quality, high output illumination in a compact, easily concealed design, perfect for a wide range of interior applications from cove and wall-washing to backlighting.

Once they debark, the system switches back into energy conservation mode. It adjusts the temperature down, switches off lights and closes curtains, ensuring that your ship only uses energy when and where it is needed — contributing to a savings of more than 25%!
