Description
Product Features
The BioShift® chamber uses ultraviolet C (UV-C) germicidal radiation, which provides an effective and immediate way of deactivating the DNA in bacteria and viruses by destroying their ability to multiply and cause disease.
There are two factors that directly influence the effectiveness of UV-C disinfection: time of exposure and UV-C radiance (intensity). Testing by a nationally recognized laboratory specializing in antimicrobial, biocidal and viricidal effectiveness showed that five minutes of exposure to UV-C radiation in the BioShift® chamber resulted in the elimination of >99.99% of common viruses and bacteria.
The table below shows the effectiveness of a typical five-minute exposure in the BioShift® chambers and the minimum dose (mJ/cm2) to kill 99.99% of a selected group of bacterias and viruses.*

Simplicity at its finest
It’s one-button operation and various safety and security features, including magnetic door latches and emergency stop buttons, makes the BioShift® chamber an easy and safe to use tool for optimal biosecurity efforts.
Watch how easy the is BioShift® is to use:
Built for toughness
The heavy-duty UV chamber is made with a stainless-steel build, UVC germicidal lamps and two, easy-to-use, magnetic doors, which latch securely while allowing for easy opening. The large chamber measures 30” long x 46.3” wide x 72” high. With a durable design, the BioShift® chamber works similar to a UV sterilization cabinet and uses techniques and materials that withstand harsh environments for years to come.
