222 nm far-UV-C excimer lamps have been gaining in importance for some time due to their ability to thoroughly disinfect surfaces and air. The special feature of the 222 nm wavelength is that, unlike conventional UV disinfection lamps with 254 nm, it does not cause any molecular disruption of organic tissue. This means that 222 nm lamps and modules can be used in areas where people are present, when used within the current exposure limits defined by national regulations. The 222 nm wavelength is also the main component of Ushio's Care222 UV disinfection solutions.
