1 General Notes 1.1 What exactly is the Li.LAC Microphone Disinfector? The Li.LAC microphone disinfector (in the following abbreviated as Li.LAC) is used to disinfect microphones (wired and wireless), belt packs, clip-on microphones and headsets. Li.LAC uses ultraviolet radiation of category C for disinfection. The disinfection efficacy is dependent on exposure time, intensity, radiation wavelength, and the corresponding microorganism’s resistance to certain radiation.
