They&rsquo;re industrial tools. They blast out intense shortwave radiation at 254nm, the kind that shreds microbial DNA. But here&rsquo;s the catch—that same power is a direct hazard to us. The biggest risk? Exposure to the radiation itself. If you don&rsquo;t have solid shielding and safety interlocks in place, you&rsquo;re asking for trouble. Operators can get corneal burns (photokeratitis) and serious skin damage in seconds. The physics are brutal: the energy that kills a microbe is the exact same energy that hurts human tissue.</p>
