New
Device to
Disinfect 500 N95
Masks Per Hour
Prescientx, an Ontario, Canada firm, has just started taking orders for a
Device that can rapidly
Disinfect N95
Masks using ultraviolet (UV) light. By bathing the
Masks with light in the UV-C range, the Terminator CoV
Device can process up to 500
Masks per hour. This is quite spectacular, given the current shortage of masks, and should be enough to keep most clinical facilities from running out of
Masks during our current pandemic.
Different N95
Masks can be run through the machine, which is adjustable to fit
Masks of various sizes. It has a reflective aluminum tunnel through which the
Masks are driven, and the tunnel’s height can be made shorter or taller, to optimize the illumination over the masks. Each mask is placed on the conveyor within a special tray that keeps it aligned properly to make sure that UV light covers each exposed surface.
The speed of the conveyor belt that feeds the
Masks into the Terminator CoV can also be adjusted, and it’s probably possible to
Disinfect a variety of other objects using the device.
