UV-C 100 TRI Dosimeters help you visibly demonstrate the success of your UV-C disinfection systems.
Dosimeters are validated by leading researchers in the U.S., U.K. and Sweden and trusted by UV-C manufacturers throughout the world.
Dosimeters are intended for one-use only and should not be reused.
Recent studies have shown that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can be inactivated by UV-C irradiation in doses ranging from 16.9 to 22 mJ/cm² (see sources below).

According to a summary of research compiled by the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention regarding UVGI decontamination of N95 masks, a dose of UV-C at 1,000 mJ/cm2 can deliver a 3-log (99.9%) reduction of viruses which have similar characteristics to the novel COVID-19 strain.
