Xenon Light Pass-Through Window Technology Guide
Advanced Sterilization Solution for Cleanroom Environments
一、Xenon Light Disinfection Principle
Xenon light pass-through windows utilize pulsed broad-spectrum UV light (200-315nm) to achieve rapid microbial inactivation. The high-intensity flashes penetrate microorganism cell walls, damaging DNA/RNA and preventing replication. This technology achieves 6-log reduction of pathogens within seconds, superior to conventional UV lamps. The xenon flash system operates only during transfer cycles, eliminating continuous UV exposure risks.
二、Can Xenon Pass-Through Windows Transfer Mice?
Standard xenon pass-through windows are not designed for live animal transfer. While the sterilization cycle effectively kills surface pathogens, the intense light pulses may stress or harm living organisms. Specialized animal transfer stations with modified lighting cycles and environmental controls are required for laboratory animal applications. Always consult with manufacturers for species-specific transfer solutions.
三、Is Xenon Pass-Through Cabinet Harmful to Humans?
When properly used, xenon pass-through systems pose minimal risk:
- Safety interlocks prevent operation when doors are open
- No ozone production (unlike 254nm UV systems)
- No residual radiation after pulsing
- UV-blocking viewing windows protect operators
Warning: Direct exposure to xenon flashes can cause temporary eye discomfort (photokeratitis) and skin redness. Always follow manufacturer safety protocols.
四、Three Fundamental Principles of Xenon Pass-Through Windows
- Barrier Integrity:
- Pulsed Sterilization:
- Material Compatibility:
五、Xenon Pass-Through Window Precautions
- Never bypass door interlock systems
- Allow complete flash cycle before opening receiving door
- Clean interior surfaces weekly with non-abrasive cleaners
- Replace flash lamps per manufacturer schedule (typically 1-2 million pulses)
- Verify sterilization efficacy with biological indicators quarterly
- Train all users on proper loading techniques to avoid shadow areas
- Maintain log of all maintenance and validation activities
