Smart UV Controller

Smart Ultra Violet Type-C Ballast Controller

UV lamps

Product Overview: Ethernet-enabled UV sterilisation controller for automated processes, featuring remote monitoring and real-time management for food safety and industrial compliance.

Technical Solution: engineered with a high-efficiency power electronics stage integrating a Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuit and a Half-Bridge converter for precise ballast control. The design features full galvanic isolation for the MCU and was developed to meet IEC-60664 standards for creepage and clearance in high-voltage environments.

Core Competences:

  • Power Systems: Mains-Connected, PFC, Half-Bridge Topology.
  • Hardware Design: High-Voltage Safety, Mixed-Signal PCB Design.
  • Connectivity: Industrial IoT (IIoT), Ethernet, USB-C.
  • Compliance: IEC-60664 Standards.

Professional Scope: Lead Power Electronics & Embedded Engineering (Project Recovery). Engaged to troubleshoot and resolve critical failures in an existing prototype that failed to meet operational specifications.

The scope involved a comprehensive schematic audit and rigorous laboratory testing to identify root causes of instability. Based on these findings, a complete circuit and PCB redesign was executed, resulting in a fully functional prototype that achieved total compliance with all technical and safety requirements.
