Wall-mount air sanitizer Kepri™

UV-Cfor commercial buildingsfor medical applications

Overview
The Excelitas LED-based Kepri UVC Upper-Air Disinfection System provides continuous, real-time disinfection of upper-room air while rooms remain occupied. Its compact, low-profile housing and dust-free optical chamber enable long service intervals without ozone emissions, making Kepri suitable for healthcare, clinical and other occupied indoor environments.

The Upper-Air Concept
Kepri creates a controlled UVC irradiation zone in the upper portion of a room. As air circulates, pathogens passing through this zone receive germicidal UVC exposure, damaging DNA/RNA to prevent replication and transmission. Continuous upper-air UVC disinfection can achieve effective airborne pathogen reduction with lower power than traditional lamp-based systems when properly installed and coupled with room air mixing.

Occupant-Safe Operation
Kepri integrates a three-tier sensor monitoring system to maintain safe operation in occupied spaces:

• Tilt sensor to prevent harmful downward UVC emission if the unit is displaced.
• Presence sensor that disables UVC emission when an object or person enters the central emission field.
• Motion-activated occupancy sensor with a three-position selectable switch to set user operating preferences.

Effective Pathogen Elimination
Independent laboratory testing (Intertek) demonstrated a 99.9% reduction of tested bacteriophage (Phi X174) in 20 minutes under test conditions. Equivalent air changes per hour (ACH) were extrapolated from the test; actual disinfection performance depends on room air mixing, ceiling height and pathogen characteristics.

Features

• Three-mode motion-activated occupancy sensor and selectable switch for flexible control
• Integrated tilt sensor for safe upward-only UVC emission
• Presence sensor that interrupts UVC if someone enters the emission field
• LED UVC source with no mercury (Hg) and no ozone generation
• Low-noise operation and dust-free optical chamber to reduce maintenance
• Adjustable mounting bracket; compact and lightweight for easy installation
• Replaceable LED module to extend service life
• Meets UL-8802 Issue 4 standard for safety

Notes & Warnings
*Measurements taken from the bottom of the mounting bracket. Warning: UVC radiation is harmful to eyes and skin. Avoid direct or reflected exposure to UVC rays.
