Abstract:
A portable UV-C disinfection apparatus, method, and system for ultraviolet germicidal irradiation. UV-C emitters may be coupled to an array housing having a planar array surface in a vertical configuration. UV-C sensors are configured to measure the amount of UV-C light or near UV-C light from a target surface. A controller may be configured to engage with the UV-C sensors to determine the amount of UV-C radiation collected by the UV-C sensors. The controller includes instructions stored on a memory according to the amount of UV-C radiation collected corresponding to an effective kill-dose for surface disinfection. The improved apparatus, method, and system reduces exposure time by varying the intensity and wavelength of the UV-C administered, while concurrently reducing UV overexposure to surfaces by administering radiation through a rotational zonal application.

Claim (Index 14):
A system for room disinfection using UV-C radiation comprising:\n at least one portable UV-C disinfection apparatus, the at least one portable UV-C disinfection apparatus comprising:\n an array housing having a substantially planar array surface; \n a plurality of UV-C emitters coupled to the substantially planar array surface, the plurality of UV-C emitters being coupled to the substantially planar array surface in a substantially vertical configuration in relation to each other; \n at least one UV-C sensor coupled to the substantially planar array surface; \n a base housing, the base housing defining an interior portion; \n a motor being housed in the interior portion of the base housing, the array housing being coupled to a shaft of the motor at a bottom portion of the array housing; \n a controller being housed in the base housing, the controller being operably engaged with the motor, the plurality of UV-C emitters, and the at least one UV-C sensor; \n at least one orientation sensor operably engaged with the controller; \n a battery pack being housed in the base housing, the battery pack being operably engaged with the motor, the controller, the plurality of UV-C emitters, and the at least one UV-C sensor; \n a remote interface, the system interface being communicably engaged with the controller of the at least one portable UV-C disinfection apparatus; and, \n a database, the database being communicably engaged with the controller of the at least one portable UV-C disinfection apparatus and the system interface.
