Abstract
A Sterilization Unit includes: a UV-C radiation source configured to emit UV-C radiation; and a room partition selectably configurable between two or more different partition geometrics and configured, in each of the two or more different partition geometrics, to (a) physically separate floor space of a room into sterilization target area and a non-target area, and (b) direct the UV-C radiation to the target area from at least two different directions while shielding the non-target area from the UV-C radiation.
Claims1
A method of disinfecting a target zone having a perimeter, said method comprising:
- providing a plurality of UV light emitting sources disposed on different positions on a UV light emitting device;
- disposing the plurality of sources along at least a portion of the perimeter of the target zone;
- illuminating the target zone from a plurality of directions with UV light emitted from at least some of the plurality of emitting sources;
- converging at least some of the UV light in the target zone;
- and
- disinfecting the target zone with the converged UV light.
