The UVO Cleaner® Station is designed to store multiple TEM specimen holders while periodically cleaning them using specially designed, spiral UV lamps using the UVO cleaning method. Each specimen holder is securely held in an adapter that is specific to its manufacturer’s design. This adapter is mounted on the rear panel of a sliding drawer. When the drawer is closed, the rods are centered within the spiral lamps while keeping the rods in a dust-free container. The spiral lamps surround the rod within a few millimeters and completely bathe the rod in UV light when on. The UVO cleaning method is a photosensitized oxidation process in which the contaminant molecules are excited and/or dissociated by the absorption of short wavelength UV radiation. The UVO Cleaner® Station is a secure, less expensive, almost maintenance-free alternative method for storing valuable TEM specimen holders. It is available in four configurations. Adapters can be used in the non-active positions for storage without the UVO-cleaning action..
