THESIS TITLE: Split Type Air Conditioner System

with Remote Automated Color Changing Germicidal

UV-C Led Light Lamp.
Ultraviolet technology is a non-chemical approach to
disinfection. In this method of disinfection, nothing is added
which makes this process simple, inexpensive and requires very
low maintenance. Ultraviolet purifiers utilize germicidal lamps
that are designed and calculated to produce a certain amount of
ultraviolet.

UV-C LED light helps to destroy germs, bacteria and viruses

by deactivating the DNA of bacteria, virus and other pathogens
and thus destroys their ability to multiply and cause diseases.
Specifically, UV-C Led light causes damage to the nucleic acid
of microorganisms by forming covalent bonds between certain
adjacent bases in the DNA. The formation of such bonds prevent
the DNA from being unzipped for replication, and the organism is
unable to reproduce. In fact, when the organism tries to
replicate, it dies.

Infectious diseases are the main problem of every people in

the world, particularly in the Philippines. Diseases are caused
by viruses that spread through airborne transmission. Ever since
scientist and medical professionals are continuously researching
for the best possible way of limiting and destroying harmful
viruses that caused countless casualties in people's lives.

In this study, Germicidal UV-C Led lamps will be used in a

split type air conditioning system. The UV-C led lamps will be
installed at the back of the filter. The filter will remove all
the dirt particles from the room air and will pass through the
UV-C led lamps for further disinfection. Three UV-C led lamps
will be installed at the back of the filter. The first UV-C led
lamp will be in color red, the next is in color blue and the
last will be a combination of red and blue light. Each light is
consists of different UV treatment wavelength. The UV-C
germicidal treatment must have a minimum of 240 to 280 nm
wavelength to induce the DNA damage of bacteria and viruses.

Children catch infectious diseases easily due to their

daily activities. Most of their time is spent in a Day Care
Center where viruses can spread through the circulation of air
in the facility. This project aims to design an air conditioning
unit that could help in destroying infectious viruses. With the
use of germicidal UV-C led lamps installed in a split type air
conditioning system, air circulating through the facility will
be dust and virus free. A free to virus Day Care Center is the
key to a conducive learning facility.

Problems:
1. The button/s for operating the UV-C Led lamps must be in
the same remote control of the air conditioning unit.
2. The size of the UV-C Led lamps to be used to fit into the
split type air conditioning unit (the indoor part).
3. The virus/ bacteria testing when the UV-C Led Lamps are in
used.
