Spectra254 Introduces UVC Rapid Disinfection System
Spectra254, developer of high-power, easy-to-use, affordable UVC light decontamination solutions, has introduced the RDS-30 Series, an essential rapid disinfection system that eliminates deadly pathogens MRSA, CRE and C. diff in 30 seconds.
The RDS-30 Series, an essential part of the Spectra254 solution portfolio, is designed for the rapid disinfection of shared tools and electronics in hospitals, private practices, outpatient clinics and other healthcare facilities. The RDS-30 Series is made to be used daily for disinfecting a wide range of patient care, administrative, diagnostic and entertainment tools; from medical tablets to cell phones, keypads to TV remotes, the RDS-30 Series disinfects all surfaces in less than 30 seconds. The system may be purchased alone or as part of a comprehensive Spectra254 solution, the only comprehensive suite of UVC light disinfection solutions in the market today.
“The RDS-30 Series is compact, powerful, effective and fast, making it ideal for any healthcare environment in which infection control is a high priority,” says Sanford Green, senior executive of Spectra254. “Its ability to disinfect both wired and wireless handheld devices as well as shared tools makes it a unique product.”
Spectra254’s RDS-30 Series uses six custom built UVC germicidal bulbs to eradicate pathogens. RDS-30 Series systems are compact enough to be used on a counter top at a nurse’s station or on a mobile cart that is moved from room to room. They feature a 1-click start and reset for easy use. The RDS-30 Series’ Ultra Pure Quartz Shelf allows UVC wavelength to reach the underside of an object. A visual, audio and a digital display provide information about each decontamination cycle. The RDS-30 Series is operated with easy to use controls on the unit itself.
Spectra254 offers an entire suite of products that together can provide an end-to-end decontamination solution for today’s healthcare environment. Spectra254’s comprehensive decontamination solution includes the Spectra 1000 Series mobile room sanitizing system and the Spectra 500 medical transport sanitizing system, in addition to the RDS-30 Series.
