Germicidal Uv Lamp Specifications
Most if not all commercial uv c lamps are low pressure mercury lamps that emit uv energy at 253 7 nm very close to the optimal wavelength.
Germicidal uv lamp specifications. Ultra violet uv light is invisible to the human eye and is divided into uv a uv b and uv c. Gsl germicidal uv striplight ps519399en page 2 june 2 2020 8 16 am fail safe product specifications germicidal uv germicidal uv lamp technology using quartz enclosure and long life igniter to maximize the run time and ensure optimal germicidal efficiency utilizes 1 or 2 guv lamps operating at 254nm wavelength. Pulsed xenon lamps emit uv light across the entire uv spectrum with a peak emission near 230 nm. It is a 4 pin ceramic base lamp with teflon wiring.
A low pressure mercury lamp in which the envelope has high transmittance for 254nm radiation. This range of uv light is absorbed by the dna and rna of microorganisms which causes changes in the dna and rna structure rendering the microorganisms incapable of replicating. 6w uv linear germicidal lamp kit suitable up to 100 sq. It is constructed of type l hard glass quartz which eliminates ozone production.
Uv c is found within 100 280 nm range. A uv ultra violet lamp that emits a significant portion of its radiative power in the uv c band 100 to 280nm a uv lamp that generates energy at 185nm which is particularly effective in producing ozone. Germicidal lamps are shortwave low pressure tubes that produce ultraviolet wavelengths lethal to microorganisms. Approximately 95 of the ultraviolet energy emitted from ster l ray germicidal lamps is at 254 nanometers the region of germicidal effectiveness most destructive to bacteria mold and virus.
Uvc led emitting 265 nm compared to e coli germicidal effectiveness curve. Ultraviolet light emitting diode uv c led lamps emit uv light at selectable wavelengths between 255 and 280 nm. Small room with 5ft 1 5m cord and us plug no ozone 4 0 out of 5 stars 52 19 99 19 99 22 45 22 45 get it as soon as wed sep 2. An ozone producing uv lamp that produces uv energy of wavelengths shorter than 220nm that decomposes oxygen o producing ozone o.
In the graph can be seen that germicidal action is maximized at 265 nm with reductions on either side. The uv germicidal lamp by boiate is a standalone light bulb that connects to any standard screw in socket at home.
