BROUGHT YOU BY
An International Partnership
WHY?
A single Fly carries up to 33 million highly dangerous microbes
Flies vomit every time they land They digest externally to ‘Soften their Food’ Flies do transmit Dangerous Microbes to Food

Trends in the world market
HACCP triggered moves to glue board models Replacing high-tension grid units
Need for information / monitoring Better tubes ( + glass protection) Integration of technologies Tubes need to be RoHS compliant Design & service friendly concepts
Why VECTOTHOR? University of Wisconsin Report
An abundance of bacteria becomes airborne at the time a fly is electrocuted (electric grid machines)
Kansas University Bacteria from exploding insects can travel up to 6 feet
from the electric grid and even further on air currents USDA Directive:
No electric grid units will be used in areas where food is processed or produced.
The USDA mandates that flies responsible for the spread of E-Coli and Salmonella are banned from any food production/processing areas.
VECTOTHOR
Only measure that Attracts, Kills and Collects insects without the use of chemicals.
Ability to monitor within HACCP concept 80% of fly brain is used for sight
Consequently using UV-A light as an attractant is the most effective solution
A device to locate the source and open up new business with a customer

Human eye versus fly eye
Normal light UV-A light
Pure UV-AOFF
Pure UV-AON
So we add blue light
Lamp LifeDecrease in output over lamp life
• UV output drops faster than visible light – due to mercury absorption of phosphorus
• One cannot see when replacement is required
Lamp life determined by electrical failure
Lamp life determined by UV level

UV-A Output for 2 years
2 years4 months 1 year
Light Cycles
Sunlight Natural, constant light Electric Lighting 50 cycles per second
Human eye observes maximum of 24 cycles per second So we observe lamps as a constant light source
Flies observe 200 cycles per second So flies see UV-A lamps as flashing/ flickering lights Not as attractive as constant daylight!
VECTOTHOR Electronic Ballast 10,000 cycles per second
So flies see VECTOTHOR lamps as a constant light source Brighter and more attractive, like constant daylight!

Advantages of PHILIPS Long-life Lamp
More powerful (almost twice the energy) Safer to use Shatterproof coating based on FEP material 50% lesser glass – environmentally better Mechanical lamp life of 2 years; or
One PHILIPS Long-life Lamp replaces two traditional UV-A lamps
Fluorescent powder is water based (no Butyl) 100% lead free glass Reduced mercury

B: VECTOTHOR glue board (industrial)
VECTOTHOR GLUEBOARDS
Optimised for high temperature tropical conditions.
Use a special protective, silicone paper, which peals off more easily.
This makes it easier to handle the boards during servicing.
