What is Germicidal Ultraviolet Light?

• The following diagrams tell you
  

  • Ultraviolet light, or UV, is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum with a wavelength ranging from 100 to 400 nanometers.
  • Thus, it is shorter than visible light but longer than X-Rays, as shown below.
  • 
    
  • 
  • Ultraviolet is further classified into 3 wavelength ranges:
  • UV-C, from 100 nanometers (nm) to 280 nm (Referred to as Germicidal Light)
  • UV-B, from 280 nm to 315 nm (Referred to as Sunlight)
  • UV-A, from 315 nm to 400 nm (Referred to as Blacklight)
