Low pressure mercury uv lamp spectrum.
Mercury uv low pressure lamps and is able to provide customers with all standard models available on the market with all possible configurations of the termi nals also with the configuration high output where uvc emission can be up to 60 higher than the basic model with the same wavelength.
New high power amalgam lamps are significantly more powerful than low pressure lamps.
Optimum mercury vapor pressure the concentration of mercury atoms in the discharge the mercury vapor pressure must be controlled in order to optimize the conversion of electrical power to uv radiation.
Low pressure mercury vapor lamps are a highly efficient source of uv light particularly short wavelength uv light 254nm and 185nm.
These types of lamps are available in ozone producing and ozone free quartz with a variety of phosphors.
Amalgam lamps use a mercury amalgam mix to control mercury vapor pressure.
Low pressure mercury lamps are also used as relatively efficient sources of ultraviolet light for applications like uv curing lithography uv spectroscopy solarium ozone generation water sterilization and other germicidal irradiation.
6 microns 006 torr.
Even though more cleaning may be required for medium and amalgam lamp based systems because they have a smaller number of lamps in the uv unit these systems can.
This was so important that westinghouse quickly commercialized the low pressure mercury vapor germicidal lamp in the early 1930 s.
Its humanitarian value has had worldwide success since.
At low vapor pressures the.
The lamp will produce its maximum output when the mercury vapor pressure is approx.
Charles wheatstone observed the spectrum of an electric discharge in mercury vapor in 1835 and noted the ultraviolet lines in that spectrum.
Low pressure germicidal lamps have an operating lifetime of up to 12 000 hours and convert up to 40 of the lamp s electrical power into uvc offering an efficient and cost effective alternative to medium pressure mercury lamps for water air and surface disinfection systems as well as controlling unwanted odours in the air.
Designed by experienced engineers and by using quality material in combination with a tightly controlled manufacturing process we provide high quality lamps free of impurities to maintain strong and stable output throughout life of the lamp.
A particularly high radiance is not required for such applications.
The german physicist leo arons 1860 1919 studied mercury discharges in 1892 and developed a lamp based on a mercury arc.
Often called germicidal or ozone absorption lamps they are very stable light sources.
We re exposed to parts of the uv spectrum while outdoors.
Ushio germicidal lamps are low pressure mercury arc lamps that emit radiation peaking at 253 7nm uv c.
