Application Notes

  • All values are nominal. Straight lamps are measured from base-face to base-face.
    U-lamps are measured from base-face to outside of bend.
    Length tolerances are for:
    -Double ended Bipin straight lamps:
     +-3.0mm
    -Slimline, Cold Cathode & all single
     ended: +-3.0mm
  • The genetic material DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of the microorganism is the target of the UV light
  • Custom designed lamps can be engineered to combine any of the above type quartz or special higher purity quartz such as synthetic grades
  •  While 15mm (*T5) lamps have been the industry standard, we offer lamps in diameters of 4-32mm, and in custom lengths of up to 2 meters!
  • Available in buulk-packs of 60 lamps per carton to reduce freight costs
  • Approximate output at 253.7nm at 100 hours use under laboratory conditions. Subject to wide variations due to application conditions.
  • Rated average useful life is defined as the average life of a group of lamps when operated under laboratory conditions in air and for reference purposes only.
  • Ozone output of "VH" varies widely with changes in airflow, ambient air temperature, pressure, humidity, and many other factors.
  • At line frequencies of 50 or 60Hz when using a magnetic ballast, the lamp wattage is determined by the product of the lamp voltage and current times the apparent power factor of the power supply being used. At high frequency (>10KHz), the power factor is unity (one) and the wattage is obtained as the product of voltage and current.
 
  • The unique single-ended design is particularly suited for domed quartz sleeve applications. The end of the lamp with the pins is positioned The unique single-ended design is particularly suited for domed quartz sleeve applications. The end of the lamp with the pins is positioned at the open end of the sleeve at the top. This reduces electrical problems associated with condensation at the bottom of vertical units. Electrical continuity is accomplished through the use of two external uv emitting heat shrinkable tubing wires. Longer lengths employ spacing rings. The 4-pin single ended design permits the use of standard circline sockets. The lamps are supplied with ceramic bases, which are resistant to UV and ozone. They will not burn or deteriorate, and they eliminate quartz sleeve fogging.

Note: The description G36T5 and G36T6L have been historically used interchangeably to refer to a lamp that is 15mm in diameter. Today, many lamps are made in a true T6 (19 mm) diameter when requested.
