Abstract
A Measuring and Monitoring Software Program which is running on a computerized Data Acquisition and Control platform, and which is part of a complete UVC and/or IR disinfection and decontamination systems for air, water or of other physical state of matter. Qualitative and quantitative determination of decontamination efficacy is achieved by means of measuring the air or water quality delivered by system, where UVC and IR radiation intensity is sensed and measured at the lamp surface along with other measurements of air pressure, speed, flow and temperature which are sampled and signal conditioned then processed by the Data Acquisition and Control System (DAQ). These parameters are then sent to the input of the Measuring and Monitoring system where are processed within mathematical routines, and the results are displayed on the computer graphic User Interface (GUI), displaying measurements compared with safety limits, actuator controls, warning and alerts for human interpretation and response.
