Waht are ultraviolet lamps

A device for creating electromagnetic radiations with wavelengths between visible light and X-rays is an ultraviolet lamp. Typically, an electric discharge lamp with a substance that produces radiations at the desired wavelength serves as the basis for the ultraviolet lamp. Typically, quartz or specialized glass that transmits UV radiation more readily than regular glass is used to house ultraviolet lamps. In order to create special effects while lighting stages and displays with fluorescent materials, modern lights are also utilized in industry and research.

Some tips for using ultraviolet lamps

  1. The ultraviolet lamps must be matched with the same matching ballast, flux leakage transformer, and capacitor before they can be used.
  2. The light box in which the lamp is installed must be equipped with a good air-cooling system to ensure the heat dissipation of the lamp and prevent the substrate from thermal deformation.
  3. Before the tube is put on the machine, you must use gauze dipped in alcohol to wipe off the fingerprints and oil stains on the outer wall of the lamp, otherwise it will cause the lamp to devitrify after ignition.
  4. During the whole process of use, good contact should be maintained between the lamp cap and the contact point of the lamp, otherwise the lamp cap will be seriously oxidized, resulting in the burst of the lamp tube seal.
  5. The ultraviolet lamps can only be started when it is cooled. When restarting, wait until the ultraviolet lamps are completely cooled before starting, after 5 minutes; the more frequent the switching times, the shorter the lamp life.
