Hospital operating room/clean ward
Application scenarios: Delivering surgical instruments, medicines, sterile dressings, and other items.
Core advantages:
Rapid sterilization: Kills bacteria on the surface of instruments (such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) within 30 seconds to 2 minutes, avoiding the time-consuming and residual risks of traditional chemical disinfection.
Cleanliness matching: Supports connection with clean areas ranging from Class 100 to Class 10,000 to prevent external contamination from entering the operating room.
No ozone pollution: Some equipment is equipped with ozone adsorption devices, making it suitable for postoperative recovery wards that are sensitive to air quality.
2. Biosafety Laboratory (BSL-2/BSL-3)
Application scenarios: Transfer sample containers, experimental consumables, waste, etc., to prevent the leakage of pathogenic microorganisms.
Core advantages:
Broad-spectrum sterilization: It can inactivate viruses (such as the novel coronavirus and influenza virus), fungal spores, and drug-resistant bacteria, ensuring biosafety.
Strong penetration: Light can penetrate transparent sample bottles without damaging the samples inside, and at the same time kill surface-contaminated microorganisms.
Automation control: Supports linkage with the laboratory control system to achieve "contactless" transmission and reduce the risk of personnel infection.
3. GMP Workshop of a pharmaceutical factory
Application scenarios: Transfer raw materials, excipients, packaging materials, intermediates, and other materials to meet the requirements of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) for pharmaceuticals.
Core advantages:
Compliance: It conforms to international standards such as FDA and EMA, and can replace traditional ultraviolet transfer Windows, solving the problems of long ultraviolet exposure time and many dead corners.
No residue risk: Avoids the potential impact of chemical disinfectants such as alcohol and formaldehyde on the ingredients of drugs, especially suitable for sterile preparation workshops.
Ii. Food and Cosmetics Industry
Food processing clean workshop
Application scenarios: Transfer of raw materials (such as fresh food ingredients, and packaging materials) and finished products (such as ready-to-eat foods, and canned foods).
Core advantages:
Cold sterilization technology: It does not generate heat, maintains the freshness of food ingredients and their nutritional components (such as vitamins and enzyme activity), and is superior to the thermal sterilization process.
Packaging compatibility: It can sterilize the surfaces of various packaging materials such as plastic, glass, and metal, and kill foodborne pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella and Listeria.
High-efficiency material change: Each transfer only takes 1 to 3 minutes, enhancing the turnover efficiency of the production line. It is suitable for high-capacity food enterprises (such as dairy and baking factories).
2. Cosmetics aseptic filling workshop
Application scenarios: Transfer of paste raw materials, bottles, cans, and containers, and filling equipment accessories.
Core advantages:
Anti-pollution: Kill mold and yeast on the surface of containers to prevent product deterioration caused by microbial contamination (such as emulsion stratification and paste mold growth).
Material friendly: It does no damage to precision packaging parts such as glass droppers and plastic pump heads, maintains a smooth appearance, and meets the high packaging requirements of the cosmetics industry.
Iii. Electronics and Semiconductor Industry
Semiconductor cleanroom (Class 10 - Class 1000)
Application scenarios: Transfer of wafers, chips, electronic components, tools, and fixtures.
Core advantages:
No particle contamination: With a sealed design and HEPA filtration system, it avoids aerosol particles produced by traditional chemical disinfection, meeting the strict requirements of semiconductor production for fine dust (the number of particles with a diameter of ≥0.1μm is ≤10 per cubic foot).
Non-contact disinfection: This avoids the risk of corrosion to precision components caused by alcohol wiping, especially suitable for MEMS devices and optical components that are sensitive to humidity and chemical residues.
2. Precision Instrument Manufacturing Workshop
Application scenarios: Transmission sensors, camera modules, optical lenses, and other high-precision components.
Core advantages:
Quick switching: Disinfection is completed within 1 minute, reducing the standby time of equipment and enhancing the automation efficiency of the production line.
Uniform irradiation: The multi-angle lighting design can cover the gaps of components and complex curved surfaces, avoiding the "shadow area" problem of traditional ultraviolet irradiation.
Iv. Biological Samples and Research Institutions
Blood bank and Cell therapy laboratory
Application scenarios: Delivering biological materials such as blood products, stem cell samples, and cryopreservation tubes.
Core advantages:
Low-temperature compatibility: It can operate in a 4℃ cold chain environment without affecting sample activity and is suitable for temperature-sensitive biological preparations such as red blood cells and platelets.
Nucleic acid inactivation: The ultraviolet band can destroy the DNA/RNA on the surface of samples, preventing cross-contamination between samples (such as contamination by viral vectors and plasmids).
2. Laboratories of universities/research institutes
Application scenarios: Transferring feed, bedding, and experimental consumables (such as culture plates and pipettes) for laboratory animals.
Core advantages:
Multi-scenario adaptation: Supports transfer Windows of different sizes (such as small desktop and large floor-standing), flexibly adapting to the space requirements of the laboratory.
Environmental protection and safety: No chemical reagent volatilization, protecting the health of laboratory personnel, especially suitable for P2 laboratories conducting microbiological and molecular biology experiments.
V. Special Scenarios (High-risk or Sensitive Environments)
Animal Disease Prevention and Control Center
Application scenarios: Transferring animal samples (such as swabs, and tissue sections), testing reagents, and protective equipment.
Core advantages:
Emergency disinfection: Kill pathogenic microorganisms such as avian influenza virus and African swine fever virus within a short period to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
Leak-proof design: The negative pressure transfer window can be used in conjunction with a biosafety cabinet to prevent the leakage of sample odors or aerosols.
2. Aerospace clean cabins
Application scenario: Transferring astronauts' food, experimental equipment, and maintenance tools to the simulated environment of the space capsule.
Core advantages:
Strict cleanliness standards: Meet ISO 14644-1 Class 5 cleanliness level, control microbial load (such as spores, and thermophilic bacteria), and comply with the special requirements of aerospace missions for a sterile environment.
Low power consumption and long lifespan: The xenon lamp light source has a lifespan of up to 100,000 flashes, making it suitable for spacecraft that operate in orbit for a long time.
Key considerations for choosing xenon light transfer Windows
Cleanliness level matching: Select the corresponding filtration efficiency transfer window (HEPA/ULPA filter) based on the site requirements (such as Class 100, and Class 1000).
Item size and transfer frequency: Large equipment needs to be customized with channel-type transfer Windows. For high-frequency transfer scenarios, the double-door interlock + automatic disinfection mode is preferred.
Special functional requirements:
Pharmaceutical industry: An optional ozone + ultraviolet combination mode is available to enhance the spore-killing effect.
Food industry: It must comply with FDA food contact material standards (such as 304 stainless steel inner walls, and food-grade sealants).
Xenon light transfer Windows, with their characteristics of efficient sterilization, rapid transfer, and environmental friendliness, have become the core equipment for item transfer in high-cleanliness and high-risk scenarios. They are especially irreplaceable in modern production and research environments that require a balance between efficiency and safety.
