Commercial Electric Insect Killers for Indian Businesses

An electric insect killer — also called a bug zapper or UV fly killer — uses warm-spectrum UV-A light at 365 nm to attract flying insects into a high-voltage grid (4.5 – 6 kV) that kills on contact. The carcass drops into a removable tray. The process is chemical-free, silent and leaves no residue on surrounding surfaces.

AERSTER ZAP 20W starts at ₹3,500 for a 600 sq ft retail shop. ZAP 40W is ₹4,800 (most popular — 1,000 sq ft restaurant fit). ZAP 60W is ₹6,500, ZAP 80W is ₹8,500, and the industrial ZAP 120W is ₹12,500 for 2,500 sq ft warehouse coverage. All prices exclude 18 % GST; ITC available for GST-registered buyers.

Coverage scales with UV wattage: 20W → 600 sq ft, 40W → 1,000 sq ft, 60W → 1,500 sq ft, 80W → 2,000 sq ft, 120W → 2,500 sq ft. Walls and partitions break UV line-of-sight, so size per sub-room, not per floor plate. A partitioned 2,000 sq ft restaurant typically needs two 40W units, not one 80W.

Yes. AERSTER ZAP tubes are shatter-proof coated (FSSAI Schedule 4 compliant) and the stainless-steel grid is fully enclosed so there is no risk of insect debris falling onto food-contact surfaces. Mount 3 m or more from prep counters. For cleanroom-grade food zones, the silent SAFE glue-board range is recommended instead.

Electric grid (ZAP) kills instantly and needs no consumables beyond annual UV tube replacement — best for warehouses, dining areas and banquet halls. Glue-board (SAFE) is silent and traps debris inside a sealed pad — mandatory in pharma cleanrooms and some FSSAI-critical prep areas. Many sites use both: grid in the dining area, glue-board over food prep.

UV-A tubes visually appear fine but lose 40 % of their attractive 365 nm output in the first 4,000 operating hours. AERSTER recommends annual replacement regardless of visual condition. Replacement tubes cost ₹450 – 850 per pair and are stocked at all 120+ authorised dealers. AMC plans automate this.

Yes, mosquitoes are attracted to the 365 nm UV-A wavelength used by AERSTER ZAP tubes and are killed on grid contact. For outdoor or semi-open areas with heavy mosquito populations (e.g. poultry farms, open-sided godowns), the 80W or 120W IP44 variants provide the best results.

Yes. AERSTER ZAP units carry shatter-proof UV tubes compliant with FSSAI Schedule 4 Clause 3.3 (physical pest-control barrier). HACCP auditors typically require a signed monthly cleaning log and annual UV-replacement record — included as standard in all AERSTER AMC plans.

The standard IP44 rating on AERSTER ZAP covers covered-outdoor use (under a porch, covered loading dock, open-sided godown). For direct rain exposure, order the IP55 variant at checkout or ask the sales team — available on the 80W and 120W units.

Wall-mount at 1.8 – 2.4 m above the floor, at least 3 m from food-contact surfaces, and 5 m from pest-source zones like dustbins and exit doors. Power is 220 V single-phase, 16 A earthed socket. A printed mounting template ships with every unit. AERSTER includes a free first-install visit on orders above ₹8,000.

AERSTER ZAP units ship with a 2-year comprehensive warranty covering PCB, grid, UV ballast and motor. UV tubes are consumables and excluded from warranty. Optional AMC plans from ₹999/year cover two preventive visits plus all UV replacements and filter service.

Yes. AERSTER bills insect killers under HSN 8543 at 18 % GST. Registered businesses can claim full ITC on the tax component. We ship a GST-compliant e-invoice with every order and support HSN-wise reporting for procurement teams buying at warehouse scale.
