AIRrow Light 2000 UV-C Air Treatment System
The AIRrow Light 2000 UV-C Air Treatment System utilizes a three-stage filter purification system which includes a High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter, carbon filter, and germicidal UV-C light treatment. The technologically advanced system pulls air away from breathing levels to the floor where airborne microorganisms are removed and eradicated, decontaminating spaces in the home, office, and school. The AIRrow Light 2000 is designed for extended use, providing hours of continuous air cycling.
Ultra – Light Handheld UV-C Lamp
The Ultra – Light Handheld UV-C Lamp destroys dangerous microorganisms on surfaces.
Tomahawk UV-C Lamp 2000 and 3000 Series
The Tomahawk 2000 employs germicidal UV-C technology to eradicate harmful microbial bodies present in the air and on hard surfaces. The standing lamp system utilizes four 36” UV-C bulbs to produce 360 degrees of flood beam coverage, capable of destroying microorganisms and viruses with 99.9% effectiveness. The Tomahawk also features a casting wheelbase and key fob control for easy repositioning and safe operation.

FAQ’s
Ultraviolet (UV) rays are the wavelengths outside of the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum ranging from 100 nm-400 nm. UV wavelengths are emitted from the sun and can be produced in a variety of products.
Within the range of UV wavelengths, exists UVC (from 100 to 280 nanometers). These waves are categorized as germicidal, giving them the ability to inactivate or kill bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Additionally, this technology is commonly used in water sterilization, medical facilities, and HVAC ducting at low power.
Research has show UVC to be effective at inactivating a range of viruses including the COVID-19 Coronavirus.
UVC Short Wavelength | UVB Medium Wavelength | UVA Long Wavelength |
| 100 – 280 nm | 280 – 315 nm | 315 – 400 nm |
| Categorized as Germicidal | Used in short bursts to replicate sun’s rays. | Deeper penetration into human skin |
“Effectiveness of UV light depends on factors such as: exposure time & the ability of UV to reach the viruses in the water, air, and the folds and crevasses of materials and surfaces.” – International Ultraviolet Association INC.
COVID-19 is a small single-stranded RNA virus that is much easier to inactivate in comparison to mold or any sporicidal pathogen. UVC inactivation is based on nucleic acid complexity and size.

It is safe to say that UVC light at a targeted 254nm wavelength will be effective at inactivating the COVID-19 coronavirus. This is based on the logic and reasoning the EPA has publicly provided for determining a microorganism’s resistance to UV irradiation.
– COVID-19 Coronavirus is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus in the coronaviridae family
– Ultraviolet light at a targeted 254 nm wavelength will penetrate a virus’s capsid and form duplicate bonds between ribonucleic acids (RNA)
– Small single-stranded RNA viruses see a median of log-4 and sometimes log-5 reductions from 254nm low-pressure lamps at a UV Dose of 30 mJ/cm2
Although answers can vary from seconds to minutes, UVC inactivation depends on 4 variables:
- UVC Light Irridance (mJ/cm2)
- The distance of the UVC Fixture from the microorganism
- The pathogen’s size & nucleic acid complexity
- The size of the space for disinfection
With the use of proper Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) including skin and eye protection, UVC is safe. Without proper PPE, you can experience side effects including temporary skin redness and eye irritation. To learn more about UVC exposure and safety guidelines please click here.
Make sure you read our Operational and Maintenance Guide prior to using the system.
UVC: Eliminates Mold, viruses, and bacteria in the air & surfaces, disinfects drinking water & treatment of sewage.
UVB: Phototherapy, skin treatment, Vitamin D production, and cannabis THC potency.
UVA: Tanning, treatment of skin diseases, indoor gardening, eradicating bugs, improving air quality, and object identification.
