Abstract
A hand dryer with a housing in which a cavity accessible from outside through a housing opening is formed for accommodating hands to be dried by means of an airflow, and with a device for generating the airflow, as well as a device for generating UV radiation comprising at least one lamp that emits light in the ultraviolet wavelength range, which is arranged in the housing in such a manner that it emits UV radiation into the cavity. The device for generating UV radiation is designed in such a manner that the UV radiation emitted into the cavity with a wavelength in the range from 228 to 380 nm has a maximum intensity of 20% of the intensity of the UV radiation emitted into the cavity with a wavelength in the range from 200 to 380 nm.
