A disinfecting system including a delivery unit having a dental instrument holder, a dental instrument engagable with the dental instrument holder, a fluid supply line fluidly coupled to the dental instrument to provide fluid to the dental instrument, and a disinfecting device in fluid communication with at least one of the supply lines and the dental instrument.

UV disinfecting system for a dental operatory

A disinfecting device including a conduit configured to carry a flowing liquid. The conduit has a first index of refraction. A sheath surrounds the conduit and has a second index of refraction. The second index of refraction is lower than the first index of refraction. The disinfecting device also includes a light source configured to produce disinfecting light and arranged to send the disinfecting light into the conduit.

Treatment system for liquids and interior surfaces of a fixture

A dental hand tool including a main body having a main body proximate end, a main body distal end, at least one dental utility conduit associated with the main body proximate end, and a dental disinfection system associated with the main body that disinfects dental fluid at a point of use. The dental disinfection system includes a disinfection reactor associated with the main body, a collimated germicidal UV light source end, a disinfection reactor distal end, disinfection reactor walls, a disinfection reactor fluid inlet that receives the dental fluid from a dental fluid source, a disinfection reactor dental fluid outlet that delivers the dental fluid to the point of use, and a disinfection reactor inner chamber. The collimated germicidal UV light source end directs collimated germicidal UV light toward the disinfection reactor distal end along a collimated germicidal UV light path that is substantially perpendicular to the disinfection reactor distal end, and substantially parallel to the disinfection reactor walls, such that germicidal UV light substantially fills the disinfection reactor inner chamber.

Dental hand tool with disinfection reactor

There is disclosed an ultraviolet radiation device. The device comprises a base portion, a plurality of semiconductor structures connected to the base portion and an ultraviolet radiation transparent element connected to the plurality of semiconductor structures. Preferably: (i) the at least one light emitting diode is in direct contact with the ultraviolet radiation transparent element, or (ii) there is a spacing between the at least one light emitting diode and the ultraviolet radiation transparent element, the spacing being substantially completely free of air. There is also disclosed a fluid treatment system incorporating the ultraviolet radiation device.

Ultraviolet radiation light emitting diode device

A process for measuring transmittance of a fluid with first and second radiation wavelengths includes (i) positioning a polychromatic radiation source and a polychromatic radiation sensor in a spaced relationship to define a first thickness of fluid; (ii) detecting a first radiation intensity corresponding to the first wavelength at the first thickness; (iii) detecting a second radiation intensity corresponding to the second wavelength at the first thickness; (iv) altering the first thickness to define a second thickness; (v) detecting a third radiation intensity corresponding to the first wavelength at the second thickness; (vi) detecting a fourth radiation intensity corresponding to the second wavelength at the second thickness; and (vii) calculating radiation transmittance of the fluid in the radiation field from the first radiation intensity, the second radiation intensity, the third radiation intensity and the fourth radiation intensity.

Optical radiation sensor system and method for measuring radiation transmittance of a fluid

A radiation sensor device comprising a body portion having an entrance through which radiation may enter the body portion, a radiation detector and an optical filter interposed between the entrance and the radiation detector. The radiation detector is capable of detecting radiation having at least one wavelength in the range of from about 125 nm to about 1100 nm, and comprises: (i) a silicon-containing material comprising an n-doped layer disposed on a pair of p-doped layers, and (ii) a passivation layer disposed on a radiation impingement surface of the silicon-containing material, the passivation layer comprising nitrided silicon dioxide, a metal silicide and mixtures thereof. The optical filter has: (i) an optical transmittance of at least about 40% at a wavelength in the range of from about 175 nm to about 300 nm, and (ii) an optical transmittance of no greater than about 5% at a wavelength greater than about 350 nm.
