CrayoNano AS Launches HE-Series UV-C LED: High-Performance Disinfection Technology for Water, Air, and Surfaces

Trondheim, Norway—CrayoNano AS proudly announces the next evolution in our CrayoLED UV-C LED product family—the HE-series UV-C LED, CLH1-N3S. Designed to meet the growing global demand for reliable, price-effective, and sustainable UV disinfection solutions, the HE-series delivers high power, excellent efficiency, and product reliability for water, air, and surface disinfection applications.

“After two years of market experience and collaborating on over 150 design-in projects, we’ve seen a clear demand from customers for improved price-performance ratios in large-scale, high-volume disinfection applications,” said Michael Peil, CRO at CrayoNano. “The HE-series is our answer—a product that delivers the right balance of quality, performance, germicidal power, and cost-efficiency. It enables customers to scale their solutions competitively, enabling development of next level, demanding high-power applications and unlocking access to new market segments and opportunities.”

Key Features and Benefits of the HE-Series (CLH1-N3S):

  • High Germicidal Power: Optimized packaging technology delivers improved chip efficiency of ~5%, achieving stable output of 140 mW at 500 mA, enabling maximized deactivation against harmful pathogens.
  • Exceptional Durability: Built on CrayoNano’s proven H-series platform, the HE-series maintains over 90% of its UV-C power output after 1,000 hours of operation under rigorous accelerated testing conditions of Wet High Temperature Operating Life (WHTOL, 90 % relative humidity and 60 °C ambient environment temperature, Iv = 350 mA, Tj =~82 °C), translating to an L70 lifetime exceeding 15,000 hours at nominal driving currents.
  • Advanced Thermal Management: Featuring a 15% reduction in thermal resistance compared to previous models, the HE-series ensures reliable, consistent, and long-lasting performance.
  • Flexible System Integration: Operable at higher driving currents for diverse applications, the HE-series offers system design versatility for municipal water treatment, food processing, HVAC systems, agriculture, and industrial curing disinfection applications.
  • Cost-Effective and Eco-Friendly: The HE-series is engineered for performance to cost ratio (PCR), delivering over a 30% improvement over its lifetime. These benefits extend to UV systems integrating the HE-series UV-C LEDs, offering an energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and mercury-free disinfection solution. This reduces environmental impact while optimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) and enabling faster returns on investment (ROI) for businesses.

Why Choose the HE-Series UV-C LED?The HE-series reflects CrayoNano’s commitment to sustainability and innovation in UV-C disinfection by delivering UV-C LED components that prioritize efficiency and sustainability, meeting the evolving needs of our customers and the industry. We are excited to announce the planned addition of a 265 nm product line to the CrayoLED HE-series, set to launch in Q2 2025. This new offering expands our portfolio, providing customers with a broader optimization range to meet their specific application requirements. Complementing the existing 275 nm product line, the 265 nm upholds CrayoNano’s values for quality and disinfection performance, delivering the reliability and cost-effectiveness our customers need for high quality, affordable, and scalable solutions, this next-generation LED enalbes our customesr to meet disinfection demands effectively and sustainably.
