Extended Life UV Lamps

Extended Life UV Lamps

These UV bulbs typically have a useful life averaging between 2000 to 3500 hours with less than a ten percent ultraviolet drop off in UV energy. Long life is accomplished by a technologically advanced process of preparing and coating electrodes with a proprietary formulated emission material. In addition, the lamps are filled with a uniquely formulated inert gas along with a mixture of halogens. This results in a lamp with an identical ultraviolet spectral output at 365 nanometers but with a lower internal electrode temperature.

The combination of improved electrodes and the internal fill mixture results in a lamp which extends electrode life, therefore yielding a cleaner longer lasting lamp with less UV drop off. If you presently have a uv ballast and want to confirm the compatibility of extended life lamps, please fill in ballast operating and striking voltage in comments section of lamp RFQ form.
