Low Pressure UV Lamps
Historical and Properties
Low-pressure mercury vapor UV lamps produce UVC radiation with > 90% of energy generated at 254 nanometers (nm).
GE Type 219 fused quartz is used to ensure the lamp’s emission will be in the 254 nm wavelength.
Light is broken into colors and measured by wavelength in nm. 254 nm is proven to disable microorganism reproduction.
“L” or “Low ozone” generating lamps transmit up to 90% of their energy at the 254 nm wavelength and integrate doped fused quartz that blocks the emission of 185 nm energy. uv lamps for wastewater
