Machines for cleaning dust in books.

The machines can help us in the tasks of cleaning books in libraries and archives.

When a book is exposed to the air, it collects dust particles that accumulate and it is necessary to have a healthy environment to eliminate these particles to preserve not only the books but also the health of those who come to the libraries.

We often find ourselves with the problem that many public libraries have subcontracted cleaning services with private companies without qualifications or means to perform these tasks.

The company Oracle srl in Italy made the decision years ago to develop machines that avoid this frequent problem in all libraries. It currently has several options that, depending on the size and needs of each library, will be a very necessary product to have in the facilities.

Pulvisima machine

The smallest of the range, for semi-automatic use

This machine equipped with HEPA filters manages to eliminate accumulated dust with a 3-step system.

It is a machine designed for small cleaning volumes and is small in size for easy transport in our facilities.

In this video we can see how it works.

PULVERA machine

It is a fully automatic machine that with a single pass is capable of removing dust accumulated on the outside of the book.

It incorporates an external suction unit with HEPA filters in 1 minute, it is capable of cleaning 12 books. With which it is a machine that greatly reduces the cost of cleaning in our library and cleaning our books in a large library is quick and easy if we have this machine.

We can see how it works in this video:

LAURA MACHINE

Semiautomatic machine that with only two passes we can clean our books.

This machine has two versions: the standard version and the maxi version.

Working speed 6 books / minute.

SPIRITUAL MACHINE

It is a restoration machine , in addition to helping us restore documents , books , it is also useful for other restoration groups such as archaeologists , sculptors , etc.

Provided with a hood with two holes to put our arms in and be able to manipulate documents or objects.

We can see how it works in the following video:

Spirabila II machine with SANATIZER

The sanatizer unit is an option to put in the Spirabilla machines, this SANATIZER unit consists of a unit where we can put the books and thanks to the effects of ultraviolet light waves with UV-C type tubes that cure the germs of the books .

We can see how this sanatizer works in the following video.

GENERAL CONCEPTS OF ULTRAVIOLET RAYS

An important advantage of anti-germ lamps is that they are manufactured with an extremely pure quartz material, since it is transparent to UV-C rays. The classic glass used in tubes does not allow the passage of waves shorter than 250 nm, avoiding any ozone generation. They contain values ​​of mercury that, when subjected to an electric charge, emit a rediation, whose spectrum distribution is shown in the figure. 90% of the energy is emitted at a wavelength of 253.7 nm. This is precisely the frequency with the greatest moaning power. The lamp emission measurement follows the IUVA air measurement protocol.

In particular, UV-C rays have a strong germicidal effect and are most effective at a wavelength of 253.7 nm. An example UV rays are also found in sunlight and the germicidal effect of sunlight has been known since ancient times. UV radiation should not be confused with ionizing radiation (X and gamma rays which have wavelengths below 10 nm)
The germicidal effect of UV-C radiation extends to bacteria, viruses, mold spores, fungi, mold and mites; this is mainly due to the destructive effect of UV-C radiation on your DNA, which contributes to damaging your reproductive organs. and prevents their growth and multiplication. The disinfection level with the SANITIZER eliminates 99% of bacteria such as Bacilus, coli, clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomas, Staphylococcus etc. in just a few minutes of operation Germicidal lamps with their ultraviolet rays are a component of light in a broad sense (electromagnetic waves) that are divided into three main bands of wavelength (measured in nanometers; nm)

ADVANTAGES

The disinfection procedure lies in the fact that bacteria, viruses and mold, spores, fungi, molds and mites are sensitive to UV-C radiation.

Microbes cannot acquire resistance to UV rays, which on the other hand occurs with disinfectant chemicals.

UV rays are ecological. With the use of chemical disinfectants, environmental contamination is inevitable. In addition to the serious risks that can result from the direct inhalation of vapors or from the ingestion of food that has been contaminated by chemical agents.

With the use of this machine the costs are minimal, a UV-C system does not require maintenance except for the actual replacement of the lamps. The cost/benefit ratio is excellent. These machines are powerful and durable. For this reason the destruction of germs through UV rays, in comparison (or in interaction) with other systems is low cost and highly effective.

NEBULA MACHINE

It's a book disinfection machine. The books enter a booth where a misting system sprays them with a biocide. This system is designed for the automatic disinfection of papers, books, magazines, folders, etc.

The operating principle is to chronify and stop bacteria, molds and viruses through the action of a biocide.

The documents go through the belt to a chamber where this disinfectant solution is applied to all the external parts of the document to end up quickly in the drying chamber, with precise drying.

The machine is easy to use by any operator.

This machine was created for the disinfection of books and protection against viruses and bacteria that seriously affect paper materials. Quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) nebulizer.

In the current situation in the world of the covid-19 problem, the Quaternary Ammonium compound (QAC) was put on the front line as a sanitary measure against Covid-19, also known as SARS-CoV-2.

This substance is officially approved by organizations such as the EPA, WHO and IATA as an effective means of avoiding the Corona Virus.

In addition, the Spirabilia machine with sanitizer, which is equipped with UV-C light, is also suitable as a tool against this virus, it is used especially in China and South Korea :

We can see a video of its operation:

Some institutions and clients in the world that are using these machines are:

Boston Public Library (USA)

British Library of London ( UK )

Russian State Library (Russia)

National Library of Slovakia

Public Libraries in South Sakhalinsk ( Russia)

National Library of Scotland (Scotland)
