Effective HVAC Disinfection for University Clinics
Voigtlaender delivers advanced disinfection solutions for HVAC systems, ensuring Legionella-free cooling towers and safe environments for hospitals and clinics
Problem
HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems in hospitals require cooling towers to maintain a comfortable and safe environment for patients, staff, and equipment. At Uniklinik Würzburg, the cooling tower was severely contaminated with Legionella, posing significant health risks. Traditional disinfection methods required intensive efforts and monitoring, and the client sought a permanent solution to eliminate contamination risks and streamline operations
Solution
The Voigtlaender system produces Anolyte disinfectant on-site, which is dosed directly into the cooling system. Redox measurements determine water quality and ensure controlled dosing. The data is stored in the system and can be accessed as needed. This system ensures Redox content remains within acceptable operating parameters, providing a reliable and automated disinfection process. The complete system, excluding transport and installation, costs approximately €85,000.
