Germ-free treatment rooms

UV-C and plasma technology for clean air in treatment rooms

Treatment rooms are central interfaces in everyday medical practice – this is where patients, medical staff and sensitive instruments meet. The risk of transmission of airborne germs, bacteria and viruses increases significantly, especially in confined spaces, with frequent changes of patients and high levels of talking.

Oxytec solutions with UV-C and plasma technology create low-germ conditions for safe treatments – discreet in the background, effective in the result.

Typical problem areas in treatment rooms

Problem zone Typical stresses Consequences
Confined spaces Aerosols, droplet infection, bioaerosols Risk of infection for staff and patients
Proximity to speech and examinations Viruses (e.g. influenza, corona), germs Risk of cross-contamination
Use of disinfectants Odors, chemical residues Discomfort, irritation, increased exposure
Recirculating air or air conditioning systems without disinfection Re-contamination, spread of germs Contamination of subsequent patients

Why oxytec for medical treatment rooms?

  • The risk of infection from open wounds is particularly high in treatment rooms
  • Contamination of the room air or surfaces is possible at any time and difficult to control
  • UV-C and plasma devices keep the germ level extremely low
  • The risk of post-operative infections is significantly reduced

Legal requirements

VDI 6022 – Hygiene guideline for ventilation technology

Regulates requirements for ventilation systems
Hygiene measures prescribed for recirculated air operation

Infection Protection Act (IfSG)

Focus on indoor air as a transmission path
Requirements for the prevention of nosocomial infections

Safe air for medical treatments. Clean processes – measurable progress in hygiene.
oxytec – air purification for medical treatment rooms.

Technical solutions from oxytec

UV-C circulating air disinfection

The Freshair significantly reduces the level of germs within a short time, emits small amounts of ozone into the room and thus also has a disinfecting effect on surfaces. It is suitable for continuous operation and also eliminates odors.

  • Continuous air disinfection in occupied rooms by over 90 %
  • Suitable for continuous operation
  • No direct UV radiation in the room – therefore safe
  • Compact floor-standing device also suitable for wall or ceiling mounting (order mounting plate separately)

Freshair

UV-C Luftreiniger gegen Keime, Allergene, Wohngifte und Geruch

Plasma technology

Cleanair Sky for permanent use, even in medium-sized and larger treatment rooms

  • Very effective sterilization of up to 98
  • also removes odors from the air
  • Ceiling installation is particularly effective, utilizes the natural air movement of the room
  • removes all germs, allergens and indoor toxins
  • does not produce resistant germs

FAQ – häufige Fragen

How is the air in treatment rooms effectively sterilized?

oxytec relies on UV-C and plasma technology to combat germs where they originate:

  • UV-C inactivates viruses, bacteria and fungal spores in the room air
  • Plasma reduces bioaerosols and decomposes organic substances
  • Odours from breathing air, disinfection or clothing are neutralized

Cleaning is continuous, chemical-free and does not affect the indoor air quality.

Is it safe to operate in occupied treatment rooms?

Yes – our systems are designed for continuous operation in presence rooms:

  • UV-C light remains in the closed housing, no leakage into the room
  • Plasma works ozone-free or with safe decomposition in filter units
  • No danger to patients, staff or medical equipment

Can the devices also be retrofitted?

Yes – our solutions are modular, compact and can be flexibly integrated:

  • Wall and ceiling mounting, free-standing devices or installation in furniture
  • Retrofitting without interfering with the room structure
  • Also as plug-in modules for central air conditioning systems

This means that existing surgeries or clinics can also be upgraded.

What distinguishes oxytec from simple air filters?

oxytec systems clean actively – not just mechanically:

  • UV-C destroys microorganisms instead of just trapping them
  • Plasma decomposes organic compounds such as odors and bioaerosols
  • No release of fragrances – no stress for sensitive patients

How maintenance-intensive are the devices in everyday medical practice?

The maintenance effort is minimal:

  • UV-C tubes: Replacement after 8,000-12,000 operating hours
  • Plasma modules: maintenance-free or with replacement module, depending on model
  • Filter (if available): 1-2 times a year

On request, we offer maintenance service or training for your building services team.

Which hygiene and legal requirements are met?

Our technology is:

  • VDI 6022-compliant – hygienic air purification in HVAC systems
  • in accordance with DIN EN 60335 – tested electrical safety
  • Microbiologically validated – Effectiveness proven by independent laboratories

We are happy to provide you with certificates and test reports for your QM system.

Can different room sizes and floor plans be realized?

Yes – we design for:

  • small treatment rooms or open functional areas
  • several rooms in one system (e.g. with a central solution)
  • Flexible solutions for temporary isolation areas

The technology is tailored precisely to your room situation.

Are there funding opportunities for hygienic air technology in the healthcare sector?

Yes – many federal states or development banks support investments in:

  • Infection control and building technology
  • Energy-efficient air purification systems
  • Hygiene measures in the healthcare sector

We help you with technical description, profitability calculation and funding argumentation.
