Germicidal UV-C 254 nm VS Far-UV 222 nm - The Differences

https://www.larsonelectronics.com/news/1763

Advancements in UV technology addresses safety-related concerns associated with 254 nm UV lights by utilizing a different wavelength within the UV-C germicidal spectrum: 222 nm. This far-UV band is considered to be safer than 254 nm, as it does not impose the same devastating effects on the skin and eyes. According to published studies, the 222 nm band is just as effective in deactivating dangerous viruses and bacteria as traditional 254 nm UV light.
