The GC230 is a dual-lamp ultraviolet insect elimination unit covering up to 100 square metres. Two 15W T8/BL UV lamps attract flying insects which fall into a removable collection tray. Used in restaurant dining areas, hotel kitchens, bakeries, and food prep zones where chemical spray is not permitted.
Commercial Application
This unit maintains pest-free zones without chemical aerosols or contact traps. Insects are drawn to the UV spectrum, electrocuted on contact, and collected for disposal. The removable tray allows daily or weekly cleaning depending on insect load.
Operates continuously during service hours or overnight when kitchens are closed and doors open for ventilation. 100m² coverage suits medium-sized dining rooms, prep kitchens, or bakery packaging areas. Chains allow ceiling mount or the unit sits on shelving near entry points.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the GC230 suitable for front-of-house dining areas?
A: Yes. The unit operates silently and the UV spectrum is not visible to diners. Mount near entry points or above bar areas where airflow carries insects toward the lamps.
Q: Does this unit require electrical installation or can it be plugged in?
A: The GC230 operates on 230V mains supply. Consult local electrical codes for commercial kitchen installation. Some operators use a dedicated circuit; others plug into existing sockets if load permits.
Q: How often do the UV lamps need replacement?
A: Lamps have an 8000-hour rated life. In continuous 24-hour operation, replace every 11 months. For 12-hour daily use, expect 18-22 months before UV output diminishes.
