Innovation: discover the new generation knife sanitizer! The automatic sterilization cycle management reduces the risk of user error (no adjustable timer). Automatic start of the sterilization cycle by closing the door of the knife sanitizer (patented innovation). Pre-programmed knife sanitizer (2 hours). Once the UV knife sanitizer is switched on, a 2 hours sterilizing cycle starts automatically. Each time the door will be opened before the end of a cycle, the appliance will restart automatically a new sterilizing cycle.
The KS UV knife sanitizer for 20 knives has an IPX5 water resistant rating (can resist a sustained, low-pressure water jet spray).
This UV knife sanitizer has to be wall-mounted. It is made of 304 austenitic stainless steel for high resistance to corrosion and oxidation. Perfect for use in damp environments, particularly in the agri-food industry.
The KS UV knife sanitizer is fitted with:
- A sloping top, particularly appropriate for a use in the agri-food industry (preventing any retention of water or dust).
- Two indicator lamps showing the device state: green when the knife sanitizer is switched on or when the sterilizing cycle is over and red when a sterilization cycle is processing.
- A stainless steel rack (recommended in the agri-food industry) in an inclined position (to increase the capacity and to hold knives of any size). Can hold up to 20 knives. It is also possible to sterilize a sharpening steel. This UV knife sanitizer is also available with magnetic bars (quotation upon request: not available online).
- A 15W UV-C energy-saving lamp (large E27 screw cap) with a strong germicidal, virucidal and bactericidal power. Turns oxygen into ozone which destroys micro-organisms. UV lamp for knife sanitizers available as spare part. 
- A smoked transparent Plexiglas door with magnetic closure.
To protect the operator from UV-C rays, the KS UV knife sanitizer is provided with: 
- A stainless steel housing for the UV lamp.
- A 3mm polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cover to absorb radiation.
- A safety switch turning off the lamp automatically when the door is opened. 
For optimal efficiency of the knife sanitizer, the UV-C lamp must be changed every year, beyond that we cannot guarantee a perfect disinfection of your knives (available as spare part, sold separately). The KS UV knife sanitizer is also available with a smaller capacity (KS UV knife sanitizer for 12 knives) or with a larger capacity (for 40 knives: quotation upon request).
We can also provide other types of knife sterilizer operating with hot water (hot water knife sterilizers and knife sterilizer with hand wash basin sold separately).
UV knife sanitizer made in France, complying with HACCP and EU standards.
