Abstract
An apparatus for exposing a flat card to sanitizing radiant energy, has an enclosure that has an exposure chamber having a source of sanitizing radiation. A first insert slot and a second insert slot, disposed along an input surface of the enclosure are each configured to accept insertion of the flat card. A transport apparatus defines a first transport path to convey the flat card from the first insert slot, and through the exposure chamber, to emerge from a first output that opens on a first side surface of the enclosure and a second transport path to convey the flat card from the second insert slot, and through the exposure chamber, to emerge from a second output that opens on a second side surface of the enclosure that is opposite the first side surface.
