KPC – Kitchen Pollution Control

Air purification systems installed in extractor hoods, ventilation slabs and ducts, as well as odorless Front-Cooking-Systems.

Functionality

• The contaminated exhaust air is irradiated using UV-C tubes (photozoic lamps). UV-C light and active oxygen (O₃) induce a photolystic oxidation: organic, fatty and odour generating substances suffer „cold combustion“.
• Grease load in the exhaust air system and the odour emission in the environment are significantly reduced, minimising the risk of fire.
• Products of the oxidation such as CO₂ are discharged through the exhaust air stream.
• The system remain fully operational even when dealing with very high ambient temperatures and increased discharged air speeds, without losing effectiveness.

Advantages

• significantly increased fire protection
• extraction hood, exhaust duct and suction motor remain free of grease
• better higiene: no accumulation of microorganisms
• lowering of operational costs due reduced cleaning and maintenance work
• better quality of the air inside and outside the building
• discharged air of kitchens can be used for heat recovery

Fields of appliance

• canteen kitchens
• slaughterhouses
• backeries
• Front-Cooking systems
• gastronomy settled in sensitive inner city areas
• fire risk reduction

Scope of delivery

UV-C-/Ozone devices are available in nearly every size and performance. oxytec's UV-C-/Ozone air purification systems are approved by the german Technical Inspection Authority TÜV, conform to DIN 18869-7, IP 65 and VDE. The system is composed of the following modules:

• a chrome-nickel-steel (CNS) KPC frame with UV-C-/Ozone air purifying elements (KPC elements) in required size and performance
• durable electronic ballasts inside the CNS case, including KPC element wiring, UV-C-/Ozone resistant and isolated cable connecting KPC element and control gear box
• PLC destined to visualise and record the operational and failure time, as well as operational, maintenance and malfunction indicators, and failure signals for each photozoic lamp
• safety arrangement conform to DIN 18869-7 and air stream monitoring to avoid ozone accumulation in the workspace, including wiring of the control unit

All used componentse are ozone and UV-C ray resistant.

By using a new generation of high-performance, UV-C emitting KPC elements better-performing plants can be constructed without requiring more space, and therefore achieving a higher degree of efficiency.

KPC systems remain fully operational even when dealing with high ambient temperatures and increased discharged air speeds without showing the usual performance loss.
