METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE CONTROL OF FORMATION AND PROPAGATION OF BACTERIAL CULTURES, VIRAL, FUNGAL CULTURES, MILDEW, AND MICRO ORGANISMS ETC. ON THE CONDENSER COIL IN LARGER REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
There is specified a method and a device for combating of formation of and propagation of bacteria cultures and microorganisms etc. on the condenser surfaces (28) in refrigeration plants/units (4). The method is peculiar in that the cooling air and the condenser surfaces during operation is continuously illuminated with UV light in combination with a filter (12) treated with titanium oxide. The method is further supplemented with that the cooling air and the condenser in a period immediately subsequent to operation stop of the refrigeration plant/unit is radiated by with electromagnetic radiation generated by a high frequency generator (24). Performed tests with the device arranged in the refrigeration plant/unit (4) in a cooling container has shown that bacteria cultures and microorganisms etc. on the condenser surfaces (28) in refrigeration plants/units after relative short time is eliminated to an unprecedented minimum, subsequent to setting a device according to the invention in operation near by the condenser of the refrigeration plant/unit.
